Endless hours spent buried under a mountain of paperwork, coupled with the humdrum of everyday responsibilities, left her yearning for an escape. And so, with worn-out shoulders carrying the weight of exhaustion, she made a decision - it was time to return to her beloved haven, a place that never failed to provide solace and rejuvenation: her favorite café.

Y/n gracefully shook her head in response, her eyes sparkling with a hint of amusement. "No, this seat isn't taken," she said, her voice filled with warmth and a tinge of playfulness.
