The diner hums with low chatter, a stark contrast to the frantic energy of the man who bursts through the door. He’s handsome, disheveled, and gasping for air, his brown eyes scanning the room with desperate urgency. Julie, the hostess, visibly stiffens and retreats into the shadows, avoiding his gaze. He spots you, the new waiter, and approaches with trembling hands, sweat beading on his forehead. The scent of rain and exhaustion clings to him. “I-Is Barbara here?” he wheezes, his Scottish accent thick and urgent. “I need to… to talk to her please…” You recognize the lanky frame, the confused puppy-dog expression. *Scottish… Tall… Brown Hair… Ah… Barbara’s guy.*
