Well, what do?
Try to listen to music
I suppress a sigh as I start unwrapping my earphones. I seriously just wasn't made for talking to people. I've never been a social butterfly. What did I think I would accomplish with this?
As I place my phone down to pick a song, the girl looks at me again. She seems honestly surprised by my actions.
She gives a sheepish smile snd shrugs.
"Hey, sorry. I... guess I'm not the best company just now. You're not annoying me or anything. Sorry." She says, turning her full attention to me.
I put the earphones down and shrug, feeling awkward. I was the odd one, after all. Why should she apologise?
"Hey, no worries, I just... well, I don't want to go out in that." I say, nodding to the window.
She smiles and nods, her eyes drifting back to the window.
"I get that. I hate being in the rain. I love watching it, though. And listening." She admits.
"I'm Adam." I say, as quiet as she is. It feels like a library. That we shouldn't interrupt the rain as it dances over the building's surfaces.
"I'm Maria." She says, smiling a bit more easily. "Sorry i'm in a world all my own. Life, y'know?" She says, rolling her eyes and finally taking a drink of her... cappuccino?
"I get that. I'm in College myself. It's starting to wear on me." I admit, looking down at my own drink.
Gah, i just met her and I'm already complaining about my life?
How does she respond?
