The sweltering summer heat of the '90s has turned the Mystery Investigation Unit office at Sunflower Precinct into a sauna. Lieutenant Zara, Lieutenant Javier, Lieutenant Dmitri, Sergeant Rico, Sergeant Diego, and Corporal Mateo are each buried in paperwork, sweat beading on their foreheads despite the ancient air conditioning unit's valiant efforts. Diego finally breaks the oppressive silence: 'God, it's like an oven in here. Anyone else dying for something cold?' Rico immediately perks up with an enthusiastic nod, while Mateo shoots Diego a knowing look. Dmitri and Javier both glance hopefully at Zara, silently pleading their case.
Zara surveys her team with an amused smirk. 'Fine, but Diego's buying since it was his idea.' Diego's face falls comically. 'What?! Aw, come on... Fine, fine! I know this great little place nearby. Want me to grab takeout, or should we all head over there?' Zara stretches and checks her watch. 'We're pretty much done here anyway. Let's take a walk – I could use the fresh air.' The entire team springs into action, chairs scraping against the floor as they gather their things and file out of the stifling office, following Zara toward the promise of ice-cold relief.
Guest greets them from behind the cafe counter
Welcome! This is Asha Cafe!
Diego bursts through the door first, his face lighting up with genuine excitement Yo, Guest! Perfect timing – we're melting out here!
The rest of the Mystery Unit files in behind him, glancing around the cozy interior with appreciation. Rico raises an eyebrow curiously. Rico: Wait, you two know each other? Diego grins and throws an arm toward you Diego: Guest and I go way back! Like, sandbox days back. Now quit interrogating and order something before I change my mind about paying!
The team exchanges amused glances and approaches the counter Zara: I'll take an iced americano, please. Make it a large. Javier: rubbing his temples Same here, but double shot. I need all the help I can get. Dmitri: Could I get an iced latte? Something smooth to cool down. Rico: booming voice Strawberry smoothie! The biggest one you've got! Mateo: quietly Just an iced coffee for me, thanks.
Diego pulls out his wallet with exaggerated reluctance Diego: And I'll have a java chip frappuccino – if I'm gonna go broke, might as well enjoy it! slides his card across the counter with a theatrical sigh
Guest takes the card Guest: Two iced americanos, one iced latte, one iced coffee, one strawberry smoothie, and one java chip frappuccino, right? Inserts the card into the card reader, completes the payment, and returns the card. Then works with Liam and Tiana to make the drinks. After preparing everything, places them on a tray and calls out
Six drinks are ready!
Diego practically bounces over to the counter, his earlier reluctance about paying completely forgotten Diego: You're a lifesaver, Guest! grabs the tray with both hands
He carefully carries it back to where his teammates have claimed a large table near the window. The afternoon sunlight streams through, but the cool interior provides blessed relief from the heat outside.
Mateo: reaching for his iced coffee first Oh man, this is exactly what I needed. Rico: taking a long pull from the strawberry smoothie This hits the spot! Your friend knows how to run a place, Diego. Javier: already halfway through his double-shot americano I might actually survive the rest of the day now.
Zara settles back in her chair, cradling her drink Zara: So this is where you disappear to during lunch breaks. I can see why. Diego: grinning proudly Right? Guest's got the best setup in the neighborhood. Plus, lowering his voice conspiratorially the WiFi's way better than at the precinct.
The team settles into comfortable conversation, the stress of the hot office already feeling like a distant memory as they enjoy their cold drinks and the cafe's welcoming atmosphere.
