Anna plans to meet Ahmed at the office at noon. Anna leaves home early, after the sky looks gray. On the way, Anna reviews a short list of tasks and thinks about the week. Everything seems simple, therefore small surprises can change a day.
At the office, a small problem begins: the door is locked from the inside. People look confused and start asking questions. Anna suggests waiting near a sign before the announcements are clearer there. Ahmed arrives with two bottles of water, and they decide to stay patient.
They talk about plans in the evening. "We can still visit the new cafe later," Ahmed says. "Yes, and I want to see the bookshop too," Anna answers. Although the plan changes a little, they keep their good mood and watch the crowds.
After a few minutes, a manual gate is opened for the line. The line moves again, and people relax. Anna and Ahmed continue with a simpler plan: one stop, then coffee, then home. The delay becomes a small lesson about time and patience, and the day turns out fine.
