Rain started while Raul waited for the bus.
He moved under a cafe awning with five other people, each quiet, eyes on their phones.
Under the next awning, a street musician opened his case and took out a violin.
People glanced up, surprised.
He began with a slow tune that sounded like falling water.
The notes were soft, bright, and steady.
A child tugged her motherโs sleeve and pointed.
A cook stepped to the cafe door, holding a tray, and listened.
The bus schedule screen flashed red: โDelayโ15 minutes.โ No one complained.
The musician changed to a faster melody.
The child clapped to the beat.
Raul felt his shoulders relax for the first time all day.
When the song ended, the small group under the awning cheered.
The cook placed a warm muffin in the violin case.
Raul dropped in some coins and nodded thanks.
The bus finally arrived, and the group climbed on in a good mood.
As the bus pulled away, the musician waved with his bow, and the rain slowed to a quiet mist.
