One summer's day

Last summer was an unforgettable experience, full of fun and excitement.  I went to California, to a host family, to practice my English. I never thought that the destiny would carry me to a special friend. A friend who, actually, was one day so close to me.

The first time I saw her was on the bus we took in Donosti to go to the airport. She was a very shy and quiet girl, but she seemed nice. The days passed, the sun was shining in California and we were having fun. I made a lot of friends but I realized that I had with Maddi, that shy girl, a special connection. We laughed a lot together and, somehow, we understood each other. We had a really good time.

One day, when we went to spend the evening with other friends in Laguna Beach, something surprising happened. Maddi was typing on the phone and I looked at the screen. I thought I saw something in the background, but I thought it couldn’t be true. She couldn’t have a picture of my favorite band in her mobile phone. We were totally different. Absolutely different! That had to be... impossible?

Finally we realized we liked the same group and that we have been in the same concert in 2010! In the same area of the event, so close each other! We were puzzled, really shocked, for three days. And we keep smiling every time we remember that. Definitely, music makes people come together.
