Cynthia wasn't the only music lover waling through downtown jump that day, though Jake was more apt to be listening to music than he would be playing it. He happened to be walking down that same street with his ear-buds in listening to one of his favorite playlists, when he was bumped into from behind by Cynthia. He blinked and calmly, but without hesitation, turned to look at her.
For a while he said nothing and just stared at her, then took out an ear-bud before asking, "You in a hurry or something?" Event though he was slightly agitated, his face, voice, and general expression showed no hint of this. He simply held the same straight face and tone he usually held.
