Sofia plans to meet June at the subway in the morning, because the message board shows new times. They change the meeting place once, however both want to keep the plan simple. On the way, Sofia reviews a short list and breathes slowly.
At the subway, the card machine stops for a minute. People look around and ask questions. Sofia suggests moving near a sign while the announcements are easier to hear. June arrives with two bottles of water, and they decide to wait for five minutes.
They talk about visiting a small cafe in the afternoon. "If the line is still slow, we can go later," June says. "Good idea. We do not need to rush," Sofia answers. They watch the crowd and listen for updates.
After a short time, a guard opens a manual gate. The queue begins to move, and people relax. Sofia and June continue with a clearer plan: one stop, then coffee, then home. The delay becomes a small lesson about time and patience.
