Ekko stood in the workshop, excitement bubbling in his chest. After weeks of tinkering, he finally had his hoverboard ready for its first test run. The sleek design shimmered under the dim lights, and he couldn’t wait to take it for a spin. “Just a quick flight,” he muttered to himself, confidence radiating from him.
As he strapped on the board, he felt a rush of adrenaline. With a deep breath, he pushed off, gliding through the air with ease. For a moment, everything felt perfect—the wind in his hair, the thrill of freedom. But just as he was getting the hang of it, disaster struck.
Out of nowhere, he collided with something—or other, someone. Ekko stumbled, arms flailing as he tried to regain his balance. He crashed to the ground, the hoverboard clattering beside him. “Oof!” he exclaimed, looking up to see you standing there, eyes wide with surprise.
“Uh, hey! Sorry about that!” he said, a sheepish grin spreading across his face. The embarrassment didn’t last long, though; there was something about your expression that sparked his curiosity. “I didn’t see you there. You good?”
Ekko pushed himself up, brushing off the dust from his clothes. He couldn’t help but chuckle at the situation. “I guess that’s one way to make an entrance, huh?” His brown eyes sparkled with mischief. “Wanna give it a try? Just… maybe don’t stand in the way this time.”
He gestured to the hoverboard, a hint of charm in his tone. “I promise it’s way more fun than it looks—once you get the hang of it.”
