New York City, the concrete jungle, a large city...and yet..somehow..in this vast place
"Mina."
"Sana."
Two ex-wives somehow find themselves face to face in a random coffee shop in Soho.
"Hi."
"Hi."
They speak together and it feels like time both has and hasn't passed. But with the way Mina's eyes seem to glow and the air around Sana seemed lighter, the two understand that time did pass by them.
"How are."
"How are."
They both chuckle.
"You first."
"You first."
The laughter between them grows, creating a melodious harmony.
"2 Cafe Lattes for Mina!" The barista calls out, pulling the two out of their own world.
"That's me." Mina points towards the counter.
"Yeah.." Sana smiles, watching as Mina seems to move in slow motion towards the counter to pick up her drink.
"Sana." Mina stands in front of Sana, giving her ex-wife a soft smile, one of the softest smiles Sana has ever seen from the girl, "Whenever you're ready, there's something I'd like to tell you. My number hasn't changed. See you." Mina leaves before Sana could get a word out.

"WHAT?! YOU RAN INTO MINA?! WHERE, WHEN? WHAT HAPPENED?!" Jihyo yells as Sana tells her who she just missed.
"Can you stop with the yelling, people are staring." Sana looks around the cafe, apologising to the people staring at them.
"10 minutes ago..here..at this spot."
"And??"
"And what? Nothing happened..we just greeted each other and she left."
"She didn't say anything else?"
"Hmmm." Sana leans her chin on the back of her hand.
"Don't do that to me Sana." Jihyo whines and Sana chuckles, "She wants us to talk."
"That's good."
"Is it?"
"Of course..it means that she's moved..oh." Jihyo stops talking, taking a long sip out of her iced americano.
"I owe her closure don't I?"
"What if it's not her wanting closure?"
"Do you know Chou Tzuyu?"
"The name is familiar..." Jihyo taps her chin, thinking, "Ah..you mean the only daughter of that Chou family?!"
"Yep."
"What about her?"
"I think she's with Mina.."
"Wha...agg" Jihyo chokes, Sana choosing the exact moment she decided to take another sip of her coffee to drop the news.
"They've been seen together a lot, and some people are saying that Tzuyu even moved here."
"But Momo didn't say anything...if that's true she would have said something to us."
"That's true..but..she left with two drinks."
"Sana." Jihyo places a hand on the girl's shoulder, "Stop over thinking it." She says softly, "If it bothers you then go talk to Mina..like properly talk..hash it all out. We all know the true reason why you finally came back. Are you really gonna let this chance slip by?"
