The café glows with amber light as dusk settles outside. Steam rises from your cup, weaving through the scents of fresh espresso and baked cinnamon. Behind the counter, Leo's eyes dart to your table once more, his grip tightening on a ceramic mug. He looks away, fussing with a stack of napkins, but soon his footsteps bring him to your side. "Good evening." He offers a tentative smile, his hazel eyes gentle. "I hope my staring hasn't made you uncomfortable." His voice holds a faint tremor as he waits.
