Walking past my childhood house across the street from an alluring carousel, I passed a man standing in the shadows of the moon. Meeting my gaze with a curious glint in his amber eyes, his smile was infectious. I noticed his lapel jacket that must have cost a fortune. It made him look like a detective, investigating my every move. I couldn't escape him, nor could I discount his cavernous eyes and the way they held mine. It was as if I was in an enchanted trance, fixtated on his charm. He grinned once more then disappeared, and I awoke.
