"Thank you! Please come back later." She smiled, nodded at the young girl in her green dress. Her hand busy refilling coffee beans into the machine when another sound of the doorbell announced a new customer.

He's white jacket seem like it could brighten up the whole cafe.

The way he walks, gave her ears a chance to hear the beats in her heart.

There's something in his smile, make her wonder.

Have they ever met before?

"One iced cafe latte."

"Name?"

"Ca.."

"Only 'Ca'?"

"Cahaya."

She looks up at him. His eyes stare straight to her, through her. Those dark eyes. That once chained her. Once she was lost in them. Searching for her unanswered questions. "Air I-"

"Mama!"

She turn to her 8 year old mini who just running into the cafe towards the counter. The young boy's eyes were teary as he hold up his whale keychain plushie. "Whalie is broken! I didn't mean to step on it!" he whines, getting all teared up again. "I'm sorry mama..i-its y-your gift-"

"shhshh. Its alright Glacy." she smiled, patting her child's head. "What was it just now sir?" she turn to the white jacket guy. He shooked his head, smiling. "I'll be sitting there."

"Glacier help me send this to table 2 okay?"

"okay!"

"u-uhm.." a shy voice stopped him from writing. He turns to the young male, eyes soften. "..here."

"Thank you, Glacie?"
"The name's Glacier, but mama calls me Glacie."
"Is that so? So cute." he paused, handing Glacier the notebook he's writing. "Can you do me a favor?"

"You're still up hun?" Tanah asked her, he was about to get some water at the kitchen when he saw her reading a book at the living room.

"Was about to sleep. You go first."

"Okay." He shrugged, taking a glass of water and retrieve it back into their shared bedroom.
