Hidden between two towering bookstores was a small, almost invisible shop called“Silver Light Studio.”
Its wooden sign had faded with time, and only the truly observant noticed the camera symbol carved beside the door.

Liam, a photography major, found it during a walk on a foggy afternoon.
Curious, he stepped in.

Inside, the smell of old film lingered.
Framed portraits—sepia-toned, black-and-white—lined the walls.
Behind the counter sat an elderly man cleaning a vintage camera.

“Looking for something?” the man asked without lifting his gaze.

“I’m just… drawn to old photos,” Liam said.

The man smiled faintly and handed him aleather-bound photo album.
“Take a look. But pay attention to the ones with no names.”

Liam flipped through page after page—wedding shots, family portraits, street scenes frozen in time.
But in the back, tucked between two loose pages, was aportrait of a girl.

She wasn’t smiling.
But her eyes… were looking straight into his.

The photo was dated 1997, but something about it felt timeless.

He turned the photo over. A message, in elegant script:

“To whoever finds this—if you see me, come find me. I’m still waiting in the light.”

From that day, Liam returned often. He tried to learn who she was. He asked the owner, he searched archives, old city records.

One evening, he found a clue in the background of the photo—a mural of a moon painted on a brick wall.

He recognized it—it was a building near his university.

He went there at dusk.

And there she was.
Older, but unmistakable. Still standing beneath the moon mural, holding a camera.

“You came,” she said, like they’d planned it years ago.

“I saw you,” Liam replied. “Through time.”

She smiled.
“Funny how photos capture more than faces—they sometimes hold promises.”

在两家高耸的书店之间，藏着一家几乎看不见的小店，名叫**“银光照相馆”**。
它的木制招牌已随时间褪色，只有眼尖的人才能看到门边刻着的相机图案。

利亚姆是一名摄影专业的学生，某个雾气弥漫的午后，他在散步时发现了这家店。
出于好奇，他走了进去。

室内弥漫着老胶卷的味道。
墙上挂满了老照片——棕褐色、黑白色调，仿佛凝固了时光。

柜台后坐着一位年长的店主，正擦拭着一台复古相机。

“你在找什么？”店主头也没抬地问。

“我只是……被老照片吸引了。”利亚姆说。

店主微微一笑，递给他一本皮面相册。
“看看吧。但要留意那些没有署名的照片。”

利亚姆翻着一页页照片——婚礼、全家福、街头瞬间。
直到最后，他在两张松动的页面之间发现了一张女孩的肖像。

她没有笑，
但她的眼睛……仿佛穿越了时光，直视着他。

照片标注为1997年，但看起来毫无年代感。

他翻过照片，背面是一行字：

“给看到这张照片的人——如果你看见我，就来找我。我仍在光中等待。”

从那天起，利亚姆常来这家店。他想知道她是谁。
他问了店主，查了档案，翻了老城市记录。

直到有天傍晚，他从照片背景中找到了线索——一幅月亮壁画画在砖墙上。

他认出来了——那是一栋位于他大学附近的老楼。

他赶了过去。

她在那里。
年纪大了，但依旧是她。站在那幅月亮壁画下，手里拿着一台相机。

“你来了，”她说，仿佛他们早已约好。

“我看见你了，”利亚姆答道，“透过时间。”

她笑了。

“有趣吧，照片不仅定格了脸庞……有时候还封存了承诺。”
