Finding My Voice In Her Skin

A random mallgoer was casually scrolling through his phone, waiting for his girlfriend to arrive at SM. He had already ordered food and, growing impatient, started eating his portion. Before he knew it, he had finished his meal.

Now, with nothing left to do, he resorted to mindlessly scrolling through the internet to kill time.

Seated at a spot where he had a clear view of the restaurant entrance, he observed the usual hustle and bustle—people walking by, minding their own business. Nothing out of the ordinary.

That's when he saw her.

Silver hair and piercing blue eyes. She was dressed simply in a white t-shirt and casual shorts, yet her beauty was undeniable. The guy nearly dropped his phone. She was mesmerizing, almost otherworldly. Was she a foreigner? A cosplayer? His mind raced with questions, but one thing was clear—he had to capture the moment.

Quickly closing the mobile game he'd been playing, he opened his camera app and snapped a photo just before she disappeared from view.

The shot turned out surprisingly well—a candid image of the silver-haired woman alongside a middle-aged companion. The guy assumed the older woman was her nanny, as they bore little resemblance. The young woman, with her striking looks, seemed like she could be the secret daughter of a CEO or some elusive celebrity.

After the silver-haired beauty ascended the escalator and vanished from sight, the guy's girlfriend finally arrived. They ate together, and he eventually returned home. But the image of the mysterious woman lingered in his mind. As soon as he got back, he pulled out his phone and stared at the photo.

"I wonder if she's an artist? Or maybe someone famous?" he thought.

Curiosity got the better of him, and he decided to post the picture online.

The caption read: "Saw this silver-haired beauty at SM, Naga City today. Does anyone know her? Is she famous?"

Little by little, the post gained traction.

Comments:

@Antonnio_Protasyo: Holy shit? Is that a real woman? She looks too good to be true.

Reply from @xXMeilithXx: I agree. With AI these days, maybe it's AI-generated?

@Yukii_Seonah: How can that be AI-generated? She looks so real!

@JoseAninipot: I also saw her at SM! Ahhh! I thought I was the only one!

Reply from @JamesFelipe30: Is she really as beautiful as OP said?

Reply from @JoseAninipot: Yeah! Even though I only caught a glimpse, she's really pretty and cute. I thought she was some local artist or maybe a bigshot staying lowkey!

@Miyaa: Goshh, so pretty and cute! She doesn't even seem to be wearing makeup. I wish I were her!

@Anton_Alcantara: I tried reverse image searching and scouring through accounts, but I can't find anything similar. Weird.

The comments kept pouring in, each one speculating about the identity of the mysterious woman. Yet, no one could pinpoint who she was or where she came from. The post eventually garnered 300k comments and 400k interactions, but the silver-haired beauty remained an enigma.

As for the woman in question? She was still just lining up at Forme, blissfully unaware of the storm she'd stirred online. Whether she'd become famous or remain a fleeting mystery was up to fate.
