The bustling city of Los Angeles was never quiet. Even at dusk, when the sun began its descent and the sky turned shades of pink and orange, the streets were alive with the hum of cars and the chatter of people. For Jack Barakat, these moments on the rooftop were his sanctuary. The high-rise building that housed his apartment provided a vantage point from which he could escape the chaos below, if only for a while.
This evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, Jack’s fingers danced over the strings of his guitar. The music he created was his way of communicating with the world, a language more honest than words. Yet, as he strummed, a sense of restlessness gnawed at him. The recent tour had been a success, the crowds had been massive, but something was missing.
Peering over the edge of the rooftop, his gaze was drawn to the street below. That’s when he saw her. Amidst the sea of hurried pedestrians, she stood out like a beacon. Her long hair caught the fading sunlight, turning it into a halo of gold. She was dressed in vibrant colors, her clothes a stark contrast to the urban backdrop. Her laughter, carried on the evening breeze, reached his ears like a note of pure joy.
Jack’s fingers faltered on the strings as he watched her. It was as if the world had narrowed down to that one moment, that one person. Without a second thought, he slung his guitar over his shoulder and made his way down the stairs, his heart beating with an unfamiliar urgency.
