Fluidr / The Resplendent by Ramen Saha

Recommended viewing: 80% or higher monitor brightness.

After a long journey, this was our first evening in Ofu. Rishabh and I liked Ofu very much and in return, Ofu liked us too. Within an hour of our arrival, she gifted us a rainbow. Rishabh quickly got used to her sublimity, but I was pathetically slow in acclimatizing to her beauty. Her pale-yellow sandy beach was punctuated artistically by rocks and lava beds from early days of her fiery origin. The shallow water of the lagoon to our immediate right was slowly ripening in the westerly light like summer peaches. Clouds were gathering in her skies like swarming sorrows of a pianist. Everything felt enamoring, almost illicitly so. Ofu was getting ready for the sunset. I thought, this place is so beautiful, she doesn’t even know what to do with herself. Then came the sunset and Ofu proved me wrong. She knew exactly what she was doing. In mingling wildly with the evening, she was setting her phantoms free to became a fantasy.
