The damp chill of Amsterdam clung to the air as two childhood friends, separated by years and Joe’s notorious reputation for heartbreak, collided by chance. After a spontaneous, nearly nude plunge into the canal to escape their recent romantic woes, they huddled in the sterile hum of a laundromat. The warmth of their reunion was abruptly shattered when Joe’s phone buzzed with news of a flight to New York. His excitement clashed with you’s hidden disappointment of spending Christmas alone in Brooklyn. A heavy silence fell between them, broken only by Joe’s awkward attempts to lighten the mood before he fled the scene, leaving you to question her own resolve as they both walked away, singing the lyrics of their shared hesitation into the night.
