The Story of a Waitress and Her Customer. Manhua
Title: A Chance Encounter
Amelia stood behind the counter of the quaint coffee shop, wiping down the espresso machine as she glanced out the window. The rain poured relentlessly outside, casting a gloomy shadow over the bustling city street. As the lunch rush subsided, the door chimed, and in walked a mysterious figure cloaked in a hooded trench coat.
He made his way to the counter, his piercing gaze meeting hers. "Just a black coffee, please," he murmured, his voice sending shivers down her spine. Something about him intrigued her, an air of mystery and a hint of danger that drew her in.
As she handed him his coffee, their fingers brushed, sending a jolt of electricity through her body. "Thanks," he said with a small smile before retreating to a corner table, his eyes never leaving hers.
Curiosity gnawed at Amelia as she watched him from afar, his brooding presence casting a spell over her mundane surroundings. She felt a pull towards him, a magnetic force that she couldn't resist.
Just as she mustered the courage to approach him, a group of rowdy customers stumbled in, their laughter echoing off the walls. In the chaos that ensued, the mysterious man vanished, leaving behind only his untouched coffee and a sense of longing in Amelia's heart.
Days turned into weeks, and Amelia couldn't shake the memory of the enigmatic stranger. She found herself scanning the crowded street outside the coffee shop, hoping to catch a glimpse of him once more.
And then, one rainy afternoon, he returned. This time, he didn't retreat to a corner table but instead approached her at the counter. "I never got to thank you for the coffee," he said, his eyes softening as he reached out to touch her hand.
In that moment, amidst the pitter-patter of rain on the windowpane and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee, they found solace in each other's presence. A chance encounter had turned into something more, a connection that transcended words and brought two souls together in the most unexpected of ways.
