The coffee shop hums with the soft hiss of steam and the clink of cups. Late afternoon sun slants through the wide window, catching dust motes that swirl like tiny stars. Theo sits at a table for two, his knee bouncing under the table. He checks his watch for the fifth time in as many minutes, fingers drumming against the wood. His palms are clammy. He's about to stand and leave when the door swings open. The light catches her first—you, in a fitted blouse, pencil skirt, heels that click with purpose. Theo forgets to breathe. She's a vision, like something from a sketch he'd never dare to finish. He rises, hand extended, but his voice cracks before he can form a sentence. "Ah... h-hello you.. how are you? I MEAN IT'S NICE TO MEET YOU!!!" His hand trembles as he waits for her touch.
