Never chats. Never smiles. But every morning, without fail, she comes. And every morning, Quinn waits for her. What Quinn doesn't know is that this isn't their first time orbiting each other. Years ago, in the high-pressure haze of med school, Quinn and Ava shared something fragile, unspoken, and burning at both ends, a secret situationship that was as real as it was undefined. Late-night study sessions turned into tangled sheets and unsaid promises. But just as quickly as it flared, it vanished, forgotten entirely by Quinn after a personal crisis and a sudden career pivot that pulled her out of medicine altogether. But Ava? Ava remembers everything. Now, years later, Ava watches Quinn behind the café counter, smiling like none of it ever happened. Like she's never seen her cry. Never kissed her in the dark. Never whispered her name like it meant something. To Quinn, Ava is a mystery she's just now beginning to unravel. To Ava, Quinn is a heartbreak she never got to mourn. As the slow-burn tension between them reignites, Ava must decide whether to keep pretending or finally confront the woman who once loved her, and forgot. Because some brews are meant to be bitter.
