— Okay, okay, I see what you meant with this being a great cafe girl, I now see it -Abby told Maddison-

But the biggest fear was of the owners recognizing her, in case he appeared and the situation turned somewhat different.

The usual table she always picked was occupied, a boy with a cup on the table had arrived first, so she just went and took the closer to her spot, two tables apart, before going to order.

She felt something different, like there was a distinct feeling all around, the presence of something familiar that wasn't there before, but she shrugged it away, thinking that it was due to not coming here in months.

Minutes later, after she had placed the order, the woman in charge said, from the counter

— Maddison? Here's your order

So she got up, walking towards the counter, when the guy that sat on her spot turned his face up, looking all confused, making her confused as well, she definitely had seen those eyes somewhere else, that guy felt so familiar but strange at the same time, she might thought that it was all a vision.

Even if she saw the metal plate hanging on his chest, looking strangely like hers.

Leaving the drinks on the tables, she decided on shrugging what she thought she had just seen, since it could just be her mind playing games with her.

Sooner than later, she peeked the guy in front, but he was leaving, rushing out of there.

That made her feel like that was him, but it was most likely he wasn't, she told herself, lowering the hopes of something likely impossible.

But if one thing was sure about this all, was Abby picking up on all that behavior, she felt Maddison being unsteady the whole of the time that they were there.

— Something is off with you, you look as if you have seen a ghost back there

At that time, she realized that there was a story that she had never told her, not that being more than everything before university, her life before. And she wasn't sure if that would be a good idea, at all.

— Well, you might want to sit down for this, because it is going to be a long ride... -she said, as she sat down over Abby's bed, in the guest room-
— You're scaring me Mads
— It's just, that, well, have you seen the guy behind us in the café? -Maddison asked, receiving a nod from the brunette- I think that I know him, in fact, I believe that he was, in fact, my childhood best friend
— You've got to be kidding -the brunette found herself dumbfounded-
— I wish I wasn't... -she sighed-
— But why do you look sad about it though? -Abby asked, confusedly-
— That's where the long story goes on, he raced cars when we were young, and when I was 15, I stopped seeing him. It was weird, to say the least, and now thinking that I'm seeing it now..

She was utterly confused at that point.
But she wasn't the only one like that.

— Lan, is everything okay? You've been odd ever since you've gotten back from Velaris -Ollie said-

That was the first thing he heard, minutes after getting back home from the supermarket, as the movie night neared, meaning he also needed to start preparing to go back to Bahrain.
