The Museum Trip (part I)

It was a hot and muggy day in June as Gwen and Ally wove their way through the crowded streets of New York City.
"Why is it so crowded?" Gwen asked, staring at the loud swarms of people lining the streets.
"I think it's Puerto Rico Day. That's why everyone is waving the Puerto-Rican flag. Duh," Ally said back.
Thats when Gwen looked around and realized that everyone, young and old, were wearing red, blue, and white. She had been engrossed in her thoughts and daydreams again, as usual. She was always the one who daydreamed about things that could happen but never did. The simple boy-meets-girl scenario seemed so easy and common that she was sure it would happen. Even just once a guy would come up to her- a nice, gentlemanly guy- and they would exchange phone numbers. This scene was constantly playing over and over in her mind, thinking about it happening with any of the guys around her. But it never happened, it was forever contained in the realm of her mind and never met the real world.
"Are you ok?" Ally asked in a concerned tone.
"Yea, just thinking. It's nothing. Why? Do i look mad or something?"
"No. Well, maybe a little on the gloomy side. That's all. Don't worry," Ally consoled her, "today's gonna be great!"
As she said this, the two girls finally spotted the Metropolitan Museum on the left side of the street. They made their way up the steps and went inside.
