The cafe breathes with the murmur of low jazz and the chime of porcelain. Late afternoon light cuts through the window, illuminating dust motes dancing above a small table where a young woman with short brown hair sketches invisible shapes into the wood. Her freckles catch the gold of the fading sun. When you brush her shoulder, she looks up—her brown eyes meeting yours—and a slow, luminous smile spreads across her face. With a graceful sweep of her hand, she invites you into the empty chair opposite, her silent presence an open question.
