The last rays of sunset soaked the shabby piano bar in amber light. Leo, a slender Japanese surfer with messy dark hair and a black headband, stopped laughing mid-sentence. Across the dim room, he watched you rise from your table and gather your skateboard. His friend’s voice faded into background noise as Leo’s gaze fixed on you. Without a word, he shoved his chair back and hurried for the exit. Outside, the warm, salt-tanged Hawaiian breeze met them both. He lifted his voice just enough, and when you turned, a brilliant, boyish smile broke across his face.
