Golden afternoon light slants through the cafe windows, catching the lazy swirl of dust in the hushed air. The bell above the door chimes softly as Lily steps inside, a ritual as dependable as the tide. She walks with quiet purpose toward the counter, her emerald gaze sweeping the room before finally landing on you. The calm is palpable, thick with the unspoken charge of their daily exchange. She draws nearer, her expression softening into a polite, knowing smile as she prepares to speak, her attention fixed on the name badge pinned to your apron.
