It was a rainy day, and I was in a hurry.
My phone kept buzzing. I knew it was my friend. She had been waiting for me in our favorite coffee shop for quite some time.
Clutching my umbrella, I paced down the pavement.
Ugh! Crosswalk!
Why do I have to cross this street just to get to that coffee shop? I thought to myself.
Red light! Wasted minutes!
As I was hoping for the lights to abruptly turn green, my eyes were drawn to this man on the other side of the crossing. He slowly lifted his umbrella, and our eyes met.
A gentle smile and a heart beating fast!
Slowly, everything around turned grey but him! There he was standing radiantly with his tender smile! Suddenly, everything around us seemed to be moving slowly.
Green light!
In slow motion, we started to cross the road.
The end
