"Anna," her voice called. I stopped walking away, but didn't turn around. The setting sun continued to shine brightly, casting beautiful colors up into the bright sky. I didn't want to turn away from such beauty, for I feared I would forget it.
"Yeah?" I prompted, when Elsa didn't say anything more.
There was another long pause, before she spoke once more. "I hope...that you will someday find your zenith. You deserve it."
I turned to look at her, but she was looking down. at the ground, digging her boot into the sidewalk. "You deserve someone who...who notices you. You really do."
I felt like I should have been drawn to her once again, but I didn't feel that. I felt...like a balloon that had been untied. A kite cut loose. An animal set free.
A butterfly gifted with wings.
"I hope you find your zenith as well...Elsa..." I whispered, walking towards the bright setting sun, on into my future.
