We both wore headphones but made eye contact and laughed when that breakdancing duo almost kicked over your tote bag. I got off at Bedford, but I wish I’d asked for your number instead of just waving goodbye.

You shared your umbrella with me while we waited out the sudden downpour by the subway entrance. I was too shy to ask your name before my Q train arrived. Would love another chance to say thank you—maybe over coffee?

You scribbled verses in a battered notebook while I pretended to read emails. When you looked up and smiled, it felt like the city paused. If you remember the girl with paint-stained hands, let’s write a new chapter.

You were belting out “Don’t Stop Believin’” at Sing Sing on St. Marks and handed me the extra mic. I froze and missed my solo, but your laugh made the moment. Next time, I won’t miss my cue—or you.

You were the one passionately defending Fleetwood Mac to your friend at Joe Coffee on Waverly. I chimed in about “Rumours,” but you were already late and left before I got your name. Would love to pick up the debate—and maybe a latte.

You sat across from me, reading Murakami and wearing a bright red scarf. We exchanged awkward smiles every time the train screeched to a halt. If you're still wondering about that book recommendation, let’s finish the conversation above ground.

We both ducked under the same awning on 14th Street, laughing at the downpour. You let me share your umbrella for two blocks before we went our separate ways at the crosswalk. The rain was cold, but your warmth lingered.
