Waiting at the airport

Name: Giulia, 25
Location: Venice
My story:
I was at the airport, the flight was delayed.
There was a boy opposite me.
We didn't speak, but for some reason we kept looking at each other.
It was an odd situation:
same wait
same boredom
same looks
At one point he smiled at me.
I smiled back.
It seemed like it would only take a little to start talking.
Then the flight was called.
We stood up.
And we went in different directions.
How did it end?
We never saw each other again.
And throughout the flight I thought that one word would have been enough.
EyeContact was born precisely for this.
