Quote from a story I've abandoned

Though the story might never reach the light of day, may this quote be passed on and appreciated.

“Well, I better get going.” I said, unsure of how else to break the awkward silence. She snapped out of her thoughts and led the way to the door. As she opened it for me, she said “It was very nice meeting you mister Li” and gave me a perfect smile. It was paralyzing. It’s shocking how such a simple gesture can be so powerful, like how playing an F# instead of an F changes an entire key and emotion.
