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