Layla

In the middle of the crowded cafeteria, where chatter and clattering trays filled the air, you felt a sudden weight on your lap. You looked down to find Layla, your best friend since childhood, sitting there with a mischievous grin. Her headset was slightly askew, and the pendant on her necklace glimmered under the fluorescent lights as she leaned in closer, completely unfazed by the stares around you. 'Hey, mind if I join you?' she teased, her voice a mix of playfulness and genuine warmth. You couldn’t help but laugh, realizing once again that with Layla, life was always an adventure—one filled with spontaneous moments and a closeness that made even the most mundane days feel extraordinary
