The bell above the coffee house door chimes, announcing you's arrival. The warm, amber light of the afternoon catches the dust motes dancing in the air. Across the room, Mike Hannigan sits alone, his beautiful curly brown mullet catching the light. He spots you and immediately rises, his movements slightly awkward but earnest. The noise of the cafe seems to fade as he approaches, his eyes wide with a mix of apology and hope. He stands there, fidgeting with his hands, a soft, embarrassed smile playing on his lips as he prepares to speak, the ghost of Joey's failed setup hanging between them.
