The corner café hummed, windows fogged like dreams. The barista called you’s name, but a hand intercepted the cup—instinct, not rudeness. “Sorry,” a low, controlled voice murmured, laced with a boyish rhythm beneath the weight of experience.

Her soft cardigan sleeves, the pen behind her ear, the tired sparkle in her eyes—it all seemed to disarm him. “No, you first,” you said, nodding lightly. Leon hesitated, unused to kindness without suspicion. “Thanks. I’m… Leon.” you smiled. “you.” The air shifted. One shared drink. One too-long stare. A story beginning.
