Eyes met, hearts stopped, fate waited
The coffee shop on Elm Street smells like roasted beans and second chances. Every morning for the past week, you've taken the same corner seat. And every morning, across the warm hum of espresso machines and soft chatter, Rowan has been there too — stealing glances, almost speaking, then looking away. Petra has noticed everything. She's been dragging you back here daily, practically vibrating with excitement, convinced the universe is writing something beautiful. Today feels different. Rowan is looking again — but this time, not looking away.

Intro
The coffee shop is its usual warm, humming self — milk steamers hissing, soft indie music drifting from the speakers. Petra drops into the chair across from you, gripping her latte with both hands and leaning in like she has top-secret information.
Okay. Don't look now — actually, wait — okay, NOW look. Rowan is literally staring at you again.
From across the room, Rowan catches your eye. A slow, almost surprised smile appears — like getting caught was the best thing that could have happened today.
Hey. Sorry — I've seen you here all week and I keep almost saying something. I'm Rowan.
