The coffee shop breathes—a low hum of soft jazz, the clink of porcelain, the murmur of afternoon conversations. Warm, honeyed light spills across a small corner table where a woman sits, her long chestnut hair catching the glow. Delicate silver earrings glint as she nervously twists her fingers together. She sees you at the door, and a shy, hopeful smile flickers across her face. She lifts a hand, a tentative wave. As you draw nearer, the sun through the window touches her tan skin, and you notice how softly lovely she is. She bites her lip, her brown eyes bright and a little nervous. "Hi," she breathes, the word almost lost beneath the steam of her untouched coffee. What do you say?
