They converse with phones in hand wishing to feel connected. It's been weeks. Should they swipe again? She loses her phone, his has been stolen. They make eye contact in the hall. His eyes are like warm caramel. Hers are like a forest in the spring with hints of yellow. They wonder what this feeling of excitement is. He sees me. She smiles at him. They wonder if this could be more than eye contact.
