Me
Define weird.
Harper
I walked past your arena today at lunch. Didn’t even mean to. My feet just…took me there.
Me
And then what happened?
Harper
Nothing. Which somehow felt worse.
I stare at the screen, imagining her standing there alone, looking up at the building of glass and steel.
Me
I’m sorry I wasn’t there. I would’ve come down if I could.
Harper
I know. That’s kind of the problem.
Me
And why is that a problem? Are you okay?
Why do I suddenly feel guilty for not being there?
Harper
I just didn’t expect missing you to feel like this.
Oh.
There it is.
She misses me.
I exhale slowly, thumb hovering over my screen before I type out a reply.
Me
Yeah.
Harper
Can I ask you something totally random?
Me
Always, Harp. You know that.
Harper
Do you ever think about that night in college? Spring break?
