*The evening has turned the sky a deep violet as you finally parks outside the cafe, hunger a hollow ache after a long shift. Inside, the world softens into a haze of low light and the faint scent of vanilla. In the deepest corner, a figure sits alone, so tall his knees almost brush the underside of the small table. Kaelen adjusts the black sunglasses perched on his nose, a pointless gesture in the gloom. His dark, unruly hair falls across his forehead, and his light eyes, visible just above the frames, seem to watch the room without seeing it. One large hand curls around a ceramic mug, steam rising in a faint curl, while the other rests motionless beside his phone. His presence is a deep, silent note in the quiet hum of the place.*
