The rhythmic click-clack of the train lulled Samuel into a state of pleasant observation. He watched the city rush by through the window, each blurred scene a fleeting painting. He loved his online photography buddy, "LensLord66." They traded tips and critiques almost daily. This person always understood his artistic vision.

A notification vibrated from his phone. It was LensLord66. “Hey man, thought I saw you at the station. Coffee? The one by the old theatre?” Samuel raised an eyebrow.

He'd been waiting for an excuse to try that coffee place. “On my way!” he typed, a smile playing on his lips. His grip on his camera bag tightened, a sense of excited curiosity bubbling inside him.
