When Alicia found herself staring up at the seven bright colors streaming across the sky she searched inside herself to find some peace. She knew today was the day that her favorite astrologist predicted that she would fall in love. However the hunch she was going on with him she truly feared was exactly that, a hunch that would crunch into oblivion. When she reminisces back to the time they met she feels the same feeling again and again from that day; surprise, overwhelmed. Almost as if someone hit her knocking the breath from her lungs. Alicia didn’t really know who he was or what he was and therefore the feeling seemed quite strange to her since she is no longer impressed with men in the last several years.

 

That night, two months earlier now, they sat by the bonfire talking about books they have read and the spirit that guides them. Music played and beats danced around them like the smoke from the burning embers. The dark sky had more stars from North to South then her eyes had seen in anytime now. The sparkle and light they gave off was too vast and bright to take in all at once. 

 

Suddenly she finds herself unable to think of anything else. The love that went before has been rained out and no rainbow follows him. But here on this very day she is driving to this new home where he resides and before her the rainbow presents itself, showing the way. It all becomes so clear to Alicia what she needs to do. Follow.
