Leah's P.O.V

I've never been the talker type.

What I mean is that I've never really been an extrovert.

So that's how you will always catch a 16 year old girl in the terrace of the apartment building every Saturday .

Listening to Mitski dreaming away her "golden years" instead of actually trying to have a social life .

It's not that I don't have friends, I have plenty of friends,well 5 and that's including my grandma but sometimes I feel they are just friends with me out of pity.

My headphones blasting "Valentine, Texas" By Mitski , Maybe that's why I couldn't hear someone else come into the
Terrace.

But my body could somehow sense I was no longer alone.

And in fact I wasn't,there was a boy there I think I know him .Wasn't he the boy who just moved with his Mother and his siblings .

I had seen him at school a couple of times .

He bought a chair and sat down
With his airpords, admiring the sunset sky.

He tried to ignore as much as possible I was staring hard.

But the way the sun setting down shined down on his skin ansmd his blonde hair looked like strands of gold the way they at that precise moment.

He took of his airpords
And looked at me ,and said something I couldn't hear him since I still had headphones on.

So I took them off
And he spoke again.

"Do I know you?".

How could I answer that question.

"Not really " I answered .

"Kay' " He said .

The situation quickly got awkward.

"What's your name ?" I asked .

I don't really do that
All the friends I have were because they talked to me first .

If you couldn't tell I had serious social anxiety.

"Walker, What's yours?" He asked.

"Leah " I answered .

Feeling a new found confidence
I asked again.

"Who are you listening to?".

"Mitski" He answered .

"You like Mitski? "I asked.

He genuinely didn't look like someone who listened to Mitski.

"Yeah , Is there a problem?" He asked .

"No ,no I'm a big fan of her" I answered.

His eyes light up.

"Really what's your favorite song of hers " He asked.

"I've got to say Valentine Texas " I answered

"Really, That's my favorite song too " He said .

Huh.

Well maybe strangers do tend to have things in common.

"Soo , how long have you been doing this "He asked .

"Doing what?" I retorted.

"You know the whole bring in a terrace listening to Mitski" He answered .

Huh , haven't really thought of that .

"I don't really remember, I guess since I was 12 " I said .

"Why are you here?" I asked with curiosity .

'In this terrace? or in this state ?" He retorted .

"Both I guess " I answered truthfully .

"I'm in this terrace because I needed to clear my head and I'm in this state because my mom needed a fresh star ,you see my dad died He was a navy" He said his eyes watering by the second.

"I'm sorry ,I shouldn't have asked " I said .

"No ,no it's fine , He's in a better place now" He reassured with a hint of forced relief .

Let's just say a beautiful friendship developed over that terrace .

14 years later

Leah P.O.V

I sat in the sofa waiting for him and there he came .

He gently layed a bowl of popcorn on the coffee table as he sat down and hugged my side I shared my blanket with him and watched a movie .

We had just put our 2 year daughter "Mayah" to bed .

And this wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for that terrace .
