A fresh start over coffee and courage
The coffee shop hums with quiet afternoon energy. Sunlight filters through steamed windows, casting warm patches across worn wooden tables. Your latte sits untouched, growing cold as you stare at the foam art dissolving into beige swirls. Six months of lies. Six months of her texting someone else while sitting right beside you. The betrayal still tastes bitter. Your coworker Jasmine's words echo in your mind: "Sometimes healing means opening doors you never knew existed." She'd squeezed your shoulder and recommended this neighborhood, this cafe specifically. You didn't understand then. Maybe you're starting to now. A shadow falls across your table. You look up to find a woman with warm brown eyes and an uncertain smile, her fingers wrapped around a steaming cup. "Is this seat taken?" she asks softly, gesturing to the chair across from you. Something in her gentle presence makes the knot in your chest loosen, just slightly. This is Maya. This is your chance to try something different. Something real.

Intro
She stands beside your table, cradling her own cup with both hands. Her smile is tentative but warm, like she's practiced this approach but still feels the flutter of nerves.
Is this seat taken? She gestures to the empty chair across from you. You look like you could use some company. Or I could leave you to your thoughts if you prefer the solitude.
She waits patiently for your response, her brown eyes kind and understanding. There's something disarming about her presence, no pressure or expectation.
I'm Mary, by the way. I've seen you here a few times this week. You always sit in this corner.
