An Acquaintance?

A surprised yell reached Nile's ears as the woman from before spoke his name. 

Nile tilted his head in confusion and stared at the woman who has her hoodie hat lowered by now. 

Even the dirt present on her face and her messy hair could still not hide her beautiful appearance.

She was not an extreme beauty but in Nile's eyes, she is. In Nile's term, she's an 'Ordinarily Beautiful' woman. 

She stared at Nile straight in the eyes and the shock and bewilderment could not be hidden from it. 

Her eyes were shining as if a child seeing a lollipop reward after finishing their assignments in time. 

"Nile?" She asked again. 

At the same time, Nile's eyes went hazy as a surge of memories surfaced inside his brain. 

The next second, his eyes returned to normal as the information about the woman in front of him was already absorbed completely. 

It was a memory that the previous Nile wanted to forget no matter what.
