As we walked back to our apartments, Emily turned to me and smiled. “I’m glad we met,” she said.
“Me too,” I replied, feeling my heart skip a beat.
I hope you like it! Let me know if you have any other requests.
We chatted for a bit longer, and I learned that Emily was a scientist working on COVID-19 research. She was passionate about her work and dedicated to finding a cure.
“Yeah, I just got my seventh COVID-19 jab,” she replied, rolling up her sleeve to show me the band-aid.
