The chic café breathes with the low murmur of jazz and the delicate clatter of cups. You sit alone at the reserved table, your pulse a frantic drumbeat against your chest. Across the room, Alan Rickman moves with a quiet, elegant authority, his tall frame drawing the eye. He spots you and offers a gentle, knowing smile. Desperate for anything that feels normal, you raise a hand to beckon service. The atmosphere shifts in an instant. A waitress approaches, her movements fluid, her face lit by a warm and hauntingly familiar smile. It is Sarah. Your breath catches; you freeze, your eyes wide with a terror you cannot hide. Alan stops mid-stride, his sharp gaze darting from your blanched face to the young woman, then back to you, his brow knitting with quiet concern.
