Adeline sat in her comfortable seat, and stared at the room before her. Though she had been to Drinks and Things many of times, she looked like a Seven-Year old who just walked into the Time Square Toys R Us. She was bewildered, and mesmerized all at the same time.
The store had a pale baby blue color to its walls, the tables were a dark marble with dark oak chairs. The tales seemed to line up in a circle surrounding the center of the store, in which there was a big black furry rug, a red sofa, a granite coffee table, and some bean bag chairs. Towards the far ends of each side of the room were dimly lit booths, and there were lights that hang from the ceiling that consisted of dark colors such as Red and Blue for nightfall, and a huge chandelier in the middle of the ceiling for day break. Lastly, but not least, towards the back of the store was a small stage with a microphone and a drum set towards the back of it.
Adeline stared in awe at the coffee shop before her, she never realized how cool the place was, and she certainly never noticed the stage.
True Adeline came here everyday, and even some nights, but she had never been to the store when the Stage was in use, or at least she never thought she had. She never noticed it before.
Detaching her gaze from the currently empty stage, she looked around the coffee shop to see who was in there. As she scanned the room, she noticed there were many college students in the small shop, all drinking a hot drink of some kind with the exception of a few who got snacks with their drinks. Anyone else in the store was either a corporate business worker or a teenager hanging out, though there was very few of both. The store was predominantly college students.
While Adeline was so focused on this whole new world, she got lost in her thoughts and forgot to pay attention to not just her surroundings, but the people as well. Though still lost in her thoughts, Adeline hasn't noticed the tall silhouette standing next to her trying to get her attention.
*Snap* *Snap* *Snap*
"What?" Adeline said without looking into the face of the person.
"Should I get you your usual Adeline?" Said the silhouette.
Finally Adeline looked up at the person speaking and froze upon first glance.
"Holy Crap..."
