“When is she arriving?” A long-haired dark blonde asked a raven-haired female sitting on a bench. The blonde kept pacing, anxiety was written all over her body language while the raven-haired kept checking her phone, frowning at the time plastered on the screen before her gaze returned to her anxious friend.
