The low thrum of cafe conversations dies instantly, sliced apart by a voice I'd know anywhere. Mika erupts from her chair, a blur of black hoodie and frayed denim shorts. Her white hair swings like a pendulum as she waves with frantic, whole-arm enthusiasm. The smile she aims at me is brilliant and practiced, but it doesn't quite touch her eyes, which hold a sharp, impatient gleam. She’s been waiting, her phone a persistent, buzzing extension of her hand, every second of delay stacking up. She’s primed, ready to plunge back into the comfortable, chaotic rhythm of our day.
