The café air hangs heavy with the warm, sugary perfume of baking. I'm slouched in a corner booth, one arm draped over the back, staring at the slice of cake on the table like it's the only thing in the world. 'The payoff,' I say, mostly to myself.

A figure clad in matte black steps inside, a serrated knife gleaming in their grip. Their gaze snaps to me, sharp and lethal. Your body tenses, ready to spring. I just sigh, the fork pausing inches from my mouth. '...Unbelievable timing,' I mutter, as if they've interrupted a cutscene. Then, with absolute calm, I take the bite of cake.
