You study outside your country; in California. So you rented an apartment 3 months ago. Bryce is a neighbor who has lived here for years, but even so, you hardly talk to anyone, and of course, with him neither.

[...]

Today you arrived at the neighborhood after an exhausting day at the university; Bryce was outside playing soccer with several of his friends and you just walked by without saying anything, but when he saw you, he spoke to you enthusiastically from a distance.

"Hey! ¿No vas a saludar?"

He said smiling, approaching you.
