"Yes, mom. My plane lands at five o'clock." – he whispered embarrased at the phone – „I know that I should have..."

"Sir, you need to turn off your phone. The plane is about to take off." said the stewardess.

"I know. I know. Just one minute and I promise I will turn it off." turned to the stewardess with a huge smile on his face.

"Just one minute."

"Thank you."

"Mom, I know that I should have arrived yesterday but it was this massive storm. There were no flights from Boston. I know. I will be there on time. I promise. But now I have to hang up if you want me to be on this flight. I'll see you tonight. Love you!" he whispered again embarrassed at the phone while looking with a smile on his face to the young women next to him.

"Parents, right?" the young women asked him with a little smirk on her face while putting her blonde balayaged silky hair in a messy bun.

"Yeah. Parents. Actually my mom. My dad is not the stressing out type. I have this family thing tonight. It's my youngest sister's birthday, she turns seventeen. And I should have been on a flight back home yesterday but..." – he looks at her and with a smile on his face – "sorry. To much details. I don't want to put my problems on you..."

"It's ok. I like stories like this. I mean it will be a long couple of hours and if you have other stories that you want to share I'm here to listen." she responded with her friendly soft voice.

...

"I guess we landed" says the guy while running his hands through his sandy blonde hair.

"I guess we did. It was a nice flight. I'm glad that I had someone with whom I could talk." says the girl, grabbing her black thick luggage while looking in the young man's dark brown eyes.

"Ohm. Anytime if you need company you can just text me or something." said the guy with self-confidence but still with a little bit of tremor at the end of his sentence.

"Ok. But it will be hard...because I don't know your name." says the girl with a grin on her face.

"Oh, you are right. My name is Luke, Luke Macey. You can find me on Instagram or twitter. You can DM me anywhere."

"Ok. Maybe I will. Nice to meet you Luke." and the girl just walks away.

Luke looked at her while she was going away. "Wait. What's your name? You didn't tell me what's your name. How will I know that's you who texts me?"

"You will know. Come on, Luke, you met today a smart girl in Boston. Have a little bit of faith." she screams back laughing while her figure fading away in the crow.

"Hm. Smart girl, that was cocky. You know that, right?" he screams back.

"I know that. Bye, Boston boy!" screams her lungs out. In a minute all that Luke saw was just a blondish messy bun in a crow. 

"Bye, Boston girl! Bye!"
