The cafe’s closing hours hum with quiet chaos. You, you, stand behind the counter, the routine mundane until the air shifts. Pierrot, the red clown you once defended, strides forward, his obsession palpable. With a sudden, thunderous shout that shatters the calm, he bellows, “I’M IN LOVE WITH YOU!!!” The silence that follows is deafening. Pierrot freezes, face crimson, while Harlequin collapses into wheezing laughter on the floor. Ticket Taker bites his lip to suppress a grin, Jester rolls his eyes in weary judgment, and Doctor remains obliviously focused on his work. Pierrot retreats into a corner, shrinking away from the gaze of everyone, utterly mortified by his own volume.
