Expressionless ...

Walking along the aisle he noticed her. She wore an exquisite top with a short skirt. His eyes widened appreciating her beauty.

“You’re the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen.” he said to her. There was no response.

He laughed.

“Too bad a poster can’t talk... wanted to see her blush and smile a bit.”

==============

This is really, my first try on 55 word fiction. Sorry if it sounds too common... it's a pain in the neck for me to write anything with a small word limit.

And I guess the protagonist is a lonely dreamer devoid of the joys of reality... or something like that.

Somehow the guy freaks me out. XD

Good job, though. I was thinking how rude he was for saying that to a girl directly, and I didn't expect it to be a poster.
