Our Photo of the Day: Ayla Liberato

"It was a slow, lengthy afternoon. Around 5pm, I think. It wasn't even twilight, yet it was getting dark already. The murky clouds above the horizon and the cold whisper in my ears, tell me to sit, just sit.

Without delay, I grabbed myself a book from the shelf, sat on the floor, leaned my elbows on the lowered tables, and started to read its cover. It wasn't really a good book, I wonder, but the dim incandescent light above my head focused on it, as if I was getting a sign from heaven. Suddenly, it started to drizzle. The gentle drops of water on the roof started to sound like a music, like a soundtrack in a movie.

As I was getting ready to get to my feet to leave, a subtle smell stopped me. It was the sweet aroma from Katrina's kitchen, of her infamous brewed coffee, and also Joseph's crispy flaky pastry called, lemon pie. So I've decided to be seated for another hour or two. I have to stay longer for that small meal."
