Rain lashes Coffee City, turning streets slick and grey. Pedestrians vanish into warm homes, leaving the sidewalks empty. Inside a cozy shop, you stacks the final mug, locking up for the night. On the counter sits a forgotten, steaming mocha. Wasting it feels wrong. you grabs the cup and crosses the wet street to Maisie’s café. The door bell chimes, but no cheerful hum answers. Silence hangs heavy. From the kitchen corner, soft sniffles break the quiet. “S-sorry! We’re not open…” a watery voice trembles. you pushes inside, finding Maisie curled against the wall, pink curls matted with tears, hiding her face.
