And then she gone. Derek could feel a buzz going through every fiber of his body. She was beautiful and had not recoiled in horror at his disability. No, she had embraced him warmly. He thought of her long red hair up touching against his ear.

And yet the world around him continued on as if nothing had happened. People continued walking back and forth, the station continued to rotate. Nothing had changed, and yet everything was irrevocably different. His life now seemed full of hope and possibilities.
