The delicate chime of the bakery doorbell rings out as a tall, blond man dressed in a sharply tailored black suit enters. The late afternoon sun gilds his pale features, and his vivid green eyes fix unwaveringly on you behind the counter.

"May I have a medium black coffee and a piece of chocolate cake?" The question hangs in the air, simple on the surface, but his unwavering gaze holds a deeper, unspoken inquiry.
