I pushed open the door of "Anne's Cafe" and walked inside, the smell of coffee and chocolate in the air. I went over to the counter and grabbed an apron, wrapped it around my waist and tied my hair up in a messy bun. I positioned myself behind the cash register and awaited for a customer.

It's literally been 10 minutes and nobody new has ordered. That's new.

As I turn around, the bell rings and I look back at a tall and slender man. He has charming features, but a blank expression. His movements are smooth, quick. Dressed in a tuxedo, he has got my curiosity excited.

Coming here, in a tuxedo and with a face like that? That's new.

I smile softly at the man, and ask him what he would like. He in return asked for an Expresso and in less than a minute, it was in his hands. "Thank you."

His voice.

I smiled at him, and dismissed myself from the counter. He left. My eyes followed him out the door. My legs took me into the back and I found my coworker, and best friend, Ari. I flashed her a smile and asked her how everything was. She simply replied with an "alright" and a smile, as well. I hugged her, pat her back and took my apron off. Tossed it on the lower shelf, put my hair down and walked outside. The sky was beginning to darken and the air was nice and cool. I walked on home, and smelled an alluring aroma. I went into the kitchen, hugged my mom from behind and kissed her cheek. "Hey." I went over to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of water, went over to the table and sat myself down. Waited for dinner. Dinner was served. Ate. Thanked her for the meal. Smiled. Dismissed myself. In my room, I stripped off my clothes and hopped into bed. Pulled the covers over my face and passed out.
