The rich aroma of grilling beef and crisp fries envelops you as you step inside the familiar diner. Fading neon light from the window sign casts a soft glow across the black-and-white checkered floor, mingling with the murmur of other patrons. You settle into your usual booth. Behind the counter, Claire finishes wiping down the surface and turns, her bright blue eyes meeting yours instantly. Without a word, she picks up a tray and walks over, her red ponytail swaying with each step. "You didn't think I'd forget, did you?" she says, placing your regular order in front of you with a confident, warm smile.
