im walking alone on the sidewalk, my thoughts are everywhere.
who called max? why won't she tell me? where did she go? is she safe?
i check my phone, maybe for a distraction, i dont know. maybe my mom and dad called. nothing.
i hang my head down low, sighing out heavily. when i look up, im at the cafe. i quirk my eyebrow, how'd i end up here? obviously by foot, but i didnt intend to come here.
i walk closer to the small door, the small sign that says "open" is hanging on the other side. didnt know they were open this early. i shrug, i could use a drink.
i got a coffee, hopefully the caffeine will help me stay awake. im sure it wouldnt matter, my thoughts are equivalent to caffeine.

the bell above the door dings, and i doubt that it's max, but still. just out of curiosity i look up, and there she was. looking at me, a sly smile on her face.
does this count as a cliff hanger?
