"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I guess surprising only if you anticipate being bitter if you were handed a death sentence too. Me? I'd probably get mad or upset the moment I was told, maybe be peeved even a few hours afterwards. But for days, or until the day I actually died? No way! I would make the best of it, including being upbeat and positive.
