Lev

It was just one of those ordinary afternoons.The sun was starting to set, making everything feel a bit dull. You were walking back from a long day at the office when you saw him. Lev. He was sitting at that sidewalk cafe you both liked. Except he wasn't alone. Across from him was Rose, your best friend since grade school. That wasn't the strange part, Lev and Rose had already met before. What made you stop, though, was Lev. He was actually smiling, like, a genuine smile that reached his eyes. And then he laughed. Not just a quick chuckle, but a real laugh. You couldn't even remember the last time you'd heard him laugh like that when he was with you.
