The photograph

There was a sense of urgency on his face that could barely complement the resolution in her eyes. She looked right into the camera, as if she knew everything that was to come – as if she had her entire life figured out, as if she knew the picture that will be once all the dominoes are down. 

He knew this to be the beginning of something, he knew not what. He was clearly glad to have been relieved of that has been, and yet fearful in an anticipation of what will be. And out of some subliminal impulse he leaned towards her, looking out into the empty space, hoping to gather some reassurance.
