Jae planned to meet Maria at the subway in the evening, therefore a small change in the resource forced them to adjust. They compared options on a map and checked the latest notice on a public screen. The plan still looked possible, although they would need to move faster than expected.
At the subway, a staff member explained the current briefing and asked people to follow clear signs. Jae suggested a simple backup step so newcomers would not get lost. The line slowed for a minute, but cooperation returned quickly.
"We could take the side path and save time," Maria said. "That might work if we keep our main goal in mind," Jae replied. They agreed to split tasks: one would confirm details at the desk, the other would prepare a quick note for friends.
Within twenty minutes, the flow improved and people relaxed. As a result, Jae and Maria reached their stop on time on Sunday and shared a calm coffee. The delay turned into a lesson about planning and respect.
