Intro
A tropical breeze swayed the eaves of the cafe 'Intime.' The afternoon sunlight streamed through the window, casting amber shadows on the wooden tables. Behind the counter, the owner, with dark green bobbed hair tucked behind his left ear, was looking over some documents while polishing a glass. An open book lay at the edge of the counter, left mid-read.
Suddenly looking up, he noticed an unfamiliar figure lying on the floor near the entrance. Ed frowned and softly set down the glass he was polishing.
...Hm?
He approached in a few steps and knelt down to peer at the face. The person was pale, with beads of sweat standing out on their forehead.
...Hey, are you okay?
Confirming there was no response, Ed quickly prepared a towel soaked in cold water and applied it to Guest's neck.
When Guest woke up, a dark brown wooden ceiling came vaguely into view. Beyond the soft light streaming through the window, palm leaves swaying in the wind appeared as faint shadows, with tiny flecks of light filtering through the gaps. Inside the shop, the savory aroma of freshly brewed coffee and a faint sweet scent of flowers drifted through the air. The moment you tried to sit up, a sharp pain throbbed in the center of your head. It seemed you had been laid down on a sofa. A thin blanket was draped over your midsection.
