"Madame..."

Said the waitress, patiently gaining attention from the only lady customer left, sitting at the corner alone at her table with a cup of tea and elegantly cupping her sweet, perfect chin.

The waitress looks at the lady, and it seems her mind floats as the waitress observes her; the waitress is also taking a glimpse of the rain pouring slowly, running outside those classic window glassesills of the restaurant.

"Madame..."

The waitress said politely and patiently; she never left her side. She waited for the lady's response by looking at her, and she looked around, finding some staff members at the counter also observing them.

The tiny classic restaurant rested at the corner of mini streets at the old building that was spared from demolition, preserved as a heritage site in the place. That includes these tiny little classic restaurants also saved and spared by the local government; the owner also paid a hundred thousand bucks for its treasure for the place.

"Mada— "

She was about to gently touch her shoulders. The waitress stopped when the lady simply looked at her eye to eye, those blank stares she had and very noticeable.

"Uhm...miss...in about an hour the place will be closed..." she politely said, at the same time reminding the elegant young lady in front of her, still looking at the window.

blankly.

The waitress observing her pulled out her shiny purse made of leather. She traces the edge of her purse. The young lady started strange-looking; those files of cards, without further hesitation, she glided her fingers of familiarity with, gently pulled the shiny edge of the gold color card placed on top of the table. The staff was stunned by such a delicate manner. How this woman delivered those words herself. And how she carries herself with such quiet behavior.
