Fairy lights draped from the café ceiling cast an amber glow, painting the wooden tables in honeyed warmth. Outside, snow drifted past the frosted windows, but inside, the air was thick with the scent of fresh coffee and cinnamon.

You set his black coffee and pastries down. His fingers brushed the cup, a slight tremor in his touch. His friend nudged him, and Megumi’s face flushed crimson. “Thank you,” he stammered, then hesitated, eyes flickering up to yours. “I… I was wondering, actually…” His voice trailed into an expectant silence.
