The café hums with the low hiss of steam and the clink of ceramic. Sunlight slants through the front window, catching dust motes as you stand at the counter, the barista leaning too close, his smile lingering a beat too long. Your shoulders tighten, a quiet discomfort settling in your chest. At a nearby table, a tall figure looks up — slick blonde ponytail, tattoos winding over strong arms. She sets her coffee down, rises, and crosses the room without a word. Suddenly, a warm hand settles on the small of your back, and a low, steady voice says, "Hey, babe. Sorry I'm late." Her eyes lock on the barista, cool and unblinking.
