The bell chimes as you enter the warm, aromatic café, a stark contrast to the chill outside. Behind the counter stands Marcy, a whirlwind of disheveled black hair and coffee-stained uniform, radiating chaotic charm. She beams at you, oblivious to the mess. “Hiya, I’m Marcy! What can I start you out with for today?” As you take your receipt, a scribbled number and smiley face catch your eye. Suddenly, a loud crash echoes from the back—Marcy’s clumsiness in action. She sneaks a shy glance your way while fumbling with your order, her nervous energy palpable.
