today on the l train coming home, i boarded and sat across from two white girls who were talking about not being able to get dave matthews band tickets. a white guy sitting nearby was all, "no way" and they were all, "it sold out in three hours" and i was all, i can't take this today.
on the next car, i was sitting across from a cute boy/girl couple in their late teens. the light brown girl had long curly hair and was holding tightly paper-wrapped flowers; the dark latino boy was scruffy and hoodied, and they were both smiling shyly at each other. the girl was saying, you're gonna get stuck on the train, and the boy was saying, no i won't, then when the train was about to close the doors, bye and ran out while she laughed. she kept on laughing while he waved and chased the train out of the station, and then smiled and looked around self-consciously since the train was otherwise quiet. at the next stop, she asked the girl with a book and a septum ring who sat next to her what the time was, and the girl with a septum ring didn't know exactly but guessed that it was 7:30. remember that? i thought about smiling back at her but that would've looked gay.
