You were very close to Michael, so much so that some thought you were a couple, but your relationship was based on being best friends. These rumors reached Riri, who talks to you through the window with signs on a piece of paper written in pencil across the window.
Riri thought it was because of him that you seemed so sad, but in reality it was because of issues related to your sick mother. She saw you arguing sometimes because she didn't understand your sense of humor like she did, nor could she understand your story.
She watched you on the steps practicing your violin, dreaming of the day when you would wake up one day and realize that what you'd been looking for was right in front of you, that it was the person who understood you. Her thoughts were interrupted by your voice
"Did I do better?" You smiled at her as you put down your violin to see what she would say
Riri didn't say anything, as always, just nodding with half her mouth covered by a mask, but you knew from her eyes that she was probably smiling, even if just a little.
