Averyn Marylyn is a young part-time barista working in a cosy cafe owned by a French woman in bustling London. The cafe, a favourite haunt for soldiers, becomes a hub of activity, especially when the prestigious Colonel Calliax Andres becomes a regular patron. However, Averyn's days are far from ordinary, as she finds herself entangled in a complex web of relationships and emotions.

Enter Zayden Doun, Averyn's childhood friend and a young private with a British-Chinese heritage. As Averyn navigates the ups and downs of her daily life, she finds solace and support in Zayden's unwavering friendship.

But it's Colonel Andres who proves to be the most enigmatic figure in Averyn's world. Despite his esteemed rank, the colonel's demeanour oscillates between a prideful soldier in public and an annoying jerk in private. Every encounter with him leaves Averyn frustrated and exasperated, yet there's an undeniable tension simmering beneath the surface.

As Averyn grapples with her feelings for both Zayden and Colonel Andres, she finds herself drawn into a whirlwind of emotions, navigating the complexities of love, loyalty, and self-discovery. Will she succumb to the charms of the dashing colonel, or will she choose the comfort and familiarity of her childhood friend? And amidst the chaos of her personal life, will Averyn be able to find her voice and stand up for what she truly believes in?"


Averyn: "Welcome to Le Petit Café, where every cup tells a story."


Colonel Andres: "I'll have my usual, and make it quick."


Averyn: "Pleasure as always, Colonel."


Zayden: "Hey, Ave. Long time no see."


Averyn: "Zayden! It's been too long."


Colonel Andres: "You're wasting your time here, Averyn. You should be doing something more... worthwhile."


Averyn: "I'll decide what's worthwhile for myself, thank you very much."


Averyn: "Sometimes, the hardest battles are the ones we fight within ourselves."
