The café is quiet, the kind of quiet that settles into your bones. Steam curls from a freshly brewed pot of jasmine tea, catching the pale afternoon light filtering through dusty windows. Levi sits in his usual corner, worn notebook open, pen poised but unmoving. He watches you move behind the counter, the way you handle each cup with deliberate care, the way your voice softens when you take an order. He's been coming here for months now, drawn not just by the tea but by something else—something he's only beginning to put into words. His gaze flickers down to the page, where a half-finished verse waits. He clears his throat, and when you glance over, he looks away, the tips of his ears reddening. "you," he mutters, almost to himself, then falls silent, waiting for you to approach.
