Surrounded by the synchronous sway of wheeled dancers to the nostalgic beats of '90s black culture, Rollacity Skating Rink was an honored monument of these group of friends' childhood.

Reuniting one last time together, years later, to relive the fond reality it held before it was shut down for good, the six friends reconvene at the same booth they always used to chill in. The remnants of the retiring rink ignited a storm of homesickness of all the memories created, leaving them to endure the elephant of unresolved difficulties that still remained within each couple.

Everything is laid out on the purple, circular table. But, despite tensions running high, would it be a surprise if a little jukin' to everlasting classics could save the night, just like it used to?

This story is based off of the lyrics of Chance The Rapper's Juke Jam (feat. Justin Bieber & Towkio). This song is always gonna be a masterpiece and has a special place in my heart for the amount of contentment it brings me, bro. I've been wanting to write a song-inspired short story for a while and I've finally gotten to doing it.

The gifs look a lil' blurry, which I tried to fix, but, since these gif apps are enemies of progress, I gave up for my sanity, because it was literally about to kill me. So we gon' be working with these foggy ass gifs. All for the aesthetic!
