Some Lives Are Linked Across Time

"It is said that some lives are linked across time, connected by an ancient calling that echoes through the ages". The moment when Otabek first sees him in the summer intensive program, he doesn't just see a beautiful boy in arabesque on the bar. He sees a boy with gossamer wings fluttering in the sunlight. He sees a boy with hair streaming as he rides a midnight stallion. He sees a boy with smoky shadows and neon lights bouncing off his sweaty skin. He sees a boy with books all around him and an eraser in his mouth as he sketches. They all gave the same blonde hair and green eyes. They are all the beautiful boy in arabesque.
