Amal goes to the bus stop in the evening. The air is fresh, and the street is not busy. Amal carries a small bag and walks at a calm pace. Amal writes a short list.
At the bus stop, Amal looks around and takes a short break. A sign gives clear directions. Amal follows the arrows and finds a good spot. Then Amal makes a plan and waits for a moment.
Owen appears and waves. "Hi, Amal!" Owen says. "Do you have a minute?" Amal answers, "Sure, what is it?" They talk about plans in the afternoon and share simple ideas.
Before they leave, they check the time again and make a small promise. They will meet next week at the same place. The day feels easy, and the small meeting gives both of them new energy.
