Hide and Seek

They were but kids at heart. Joyous in their games of hide and seek. The games never ended but the zest to find each other from behind the veils and curtains did. And it was never a fault of either one, getting busier with the tremendous task of the day or rather pretending to be. They replaced the veils with masks and the curtains with walls, trying harder not to be found. Years later they wondered what was wrong and they realized that nothing was, they simply weren't the same kids anymore.
