The fluorescent lights above the café buzz softly, blending with the rhythmic hiss of the espresso machine and the clink of porcelain. Outside, the late afternoon sun stretches shadows long and thin across the damp pavement.

He adjusts his cufflink, closing the distance until he stands directly before your register, and tilts his head with a smirk that never touches his cold eyes. 'Found you, sweetheart.' The atmosphere grows dense, charged. Your shift just became infinitely more complicated.
