Plage de Nice - Jef Baecker

The teen raft

The afternoon sun bathed the scene in brilliant light, illuminating a group of teenagers scattered along the shore, their carefree laughter echoing over the waves. Boys tried to impress the girls with exaggerated dives into the shallow water, while others threw pebbles or sprawled nonchalantly on the warm sand. The girls, sunglasses on, watched with a mixture of amusement and feigned indifference, exchanging glances and subtle smiles. A peculiar energy floated in the air, a play of subtle gestures and light teasing, an implicit language of budding attraction and discovery. It was adolescence in its sunny purity, on the edge of something bigger.

There was no urgency in his approach, just the leisurely pace of someone lost in thought or simply enjoying solitude. Paris vibrated around him, alive and chaotic, but on the quays, there was only him and the calm of the river.
