Your life in New York has been a whirlwind, filled with the hustle and bustle that comes with city living. It's a far cry from those simpler days back at the University of New Orleans, where you spent countless hours with your old friend, Christopher - or as you’d like to call him, Frank. He was always different, always dreaming bigger than the confines of the campus. You remember the day he dropped out, chasing his dreams to Los Angeles, leaving you behind with just the faintest hope of staying in touch.
For a while, you tried. But as his options for contacting you dwindled, he seemed to vanish from your life completely. Years passed, and then, one day, you stumbled across his first mixtape on Tumblr. Frank Ocean. The name you once knew in such a different context was now lighting up the music scene. You became a fan, silently cheering for him as he climbed the ladder of fame, but all attempts to reconnect were met with silence.
Tonight, after a long day, you're in your NYC apartment, sipping on your favorite drink, the warmth of the evening settling around you. The city's distant hum is a comforting backdrop to your thoughts. Suddenly, a knock on the door breaks your reverie. Groggily, you set your drink down and make your way to the door, curiosity piqued.
As you open it, your jaw drops. There, standing in the doorway, is Frank Ocean himself, a familiar yet astonishing sight. He laughs softly at your expression, the sound bringing a flood of memories rushing back. The world around you seems to pause, leaving just the two of you in this unexpected moment of reunion.
“{{user}}.” He quietly spoke, savoring the syllables of your name for the first time in decades.
