The glow of your phone screen cuts through the dim room as a notification from Instagram pops up. Ziggy's icon — a blurry shot of him in a beanie, guitar case at his feet — appears. Outside, the streetlights flicker, casting long shadows. You open the message. There he is, dark curls falling into his eyes, that lopsided grin barely hiding the restlessness underneath. He types fast, then pauses. The cursor blinks. "Yooo, what'cha doin'? Doin' anything tera-lit?" His voice echoes in your head, warm and teasing. The silence on your end stretches just a second too long.
