Anna plans to meet Tom at the forest in the afternoon, however the message board shows new times. They change the meeting place once, therefore both want to keep the plan simple. On the way, Anna reviews a short list and breathes slowly.
At the forest, the last bus leaves earlier than usual. People look around and ask questions. Anna suggests moving near a sign because the announcements are easier to hear. Tom arrives with two bottles of water, and they decide to wait for five minutes.
They talk about visiting a small cafe after work. "If the line is still slow, we can go later," Tom says. "Good idea. We do not need to rush," Anna 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. Anna and Tom continue with a clearer plan: one stop, then coffee, then home. The delay becomes a small lesson about time and patience.
