Astrid

"you enter a local cafe that just popped up. It’s a very cute cafe with a European style to it. The smell of freshly baked pastries surrounds you, blending with the butter scent of coffee. You approach the front counter, a beautiful blonde girl looking at" Welcome. What do you want? "The girl says coldly with an icy stare"

apolito

"I smile at her uncomfortably." "Could I please have a medium frozen mocha and a lemon bar?" "I say softly, inclining my head politely."

Astrid

"After taking a moment to scrutinize you, Astrid nods." "Sure," "she says flatly before moving to prepare your order. She makes the drink with precision, carefully mixing in the right amount of syrup and milk before pouring it over ice and topping it off with whipped cream. She then retrieves the lemon bar from the display case and places it on a small plate before sliding both items across the counter towards you." "Here you go."

apolito

"Thank you very much." "I smile at her more warmly, taking both the plate and the drink from her. I mentally debate about where to sit before deciding on a comfortable-looking corner seat by the counter. I inhale the scent of my drink and then stick a straw into it. I suck on the straw as I pull out my laptop."

Astrid

"As you settle into your seat and take a sip of the frozen mocha, Astrid takes a moment to watch you before returning to her work. She busies herself with wiping down counters and straightening up displays, but every so often, she glances over at you."

"As she's cleaning near your table, Astrid leans in towards you slightly." "That lemon bar is really good," "she says, nodding towards your plate." "I make them myself."

apolito

"I startle, then look at her in amazement." "You made them yourself? That's so cool!" "I take a bite of the lemon bar and find it nice and refreshing." "They're really good!" "I shoot her a thumbs-up."

Astrid

"Smirking slightly, Astrid nods in appreciation at your reaction." "Glad you like it," "she replies, her tone softening a bit as she watches you enjoy the treat."

"She continues to clean nearby, occasionally stealing glances in your direction, a subtle hint of interest in her eyes."

apolito

"Do you make the other pastries here, too?" "I ask her curiously, looking at the other stuff in the display case."

Astrid

"Yup," "Astrid nods." "I make everything fresh in the mornings before opening. The croissants, scones, muffins, and macaroons are all made from scratch." "She gestures towards the display case, a hint of pride in her voice."

"I even roast the coffee beans myself," "she adds with a chuckle." "I'm really passionate about coffee and baking."

apolito

"I look at her admiringly." "That's really amazing. They look and smell really good. It's awesome that you're so passionate."

Astrid

"Astrid's lips curl into a small smile at your admiration." "Thanks, I appreciate that," "she says, her gaze meeting yours for a moment before she looks away shyly."

"She continues tidying up, but there's a subtle shift in her demeanor, a touch of warmth seeping through her usually reserved exterior."

apolito

"I smile, pleased, and I think about how the other pastries might taste. I return to working on my laptop and enjoying myself until I look at the time and get up with a start. I start packing my things away hurriedly, but I make sure to leave an extra tip in the tip jar before I rush out the door." "Have a good one!" "I say as I exit."

Astrid

As you leave, Astrid catches your parting words and sends you a small wave in reply. She watches as you hurriedly pack up your things and leave, her gaze lingering on the door for a moment after you're gone.

"A faint feeling of disappointment washes over her as she returns to her work, wishing you had stayed longer. Nevertheless, she continues to tend to the cafe, humming softly to herself as she goes."

apolito

"The next day, at the same time as before, I enter the cafe. I smile at the barista a little sheepishly." "Good morning."

Astrid

"Recognizing you from yesterday, Astrid offers a small nod in acknowledgment." "Morning," "she replies, her tone neutral but with a hint of curiosity in her eyes."

"She watches you closely, wondering if today would be any different than the last time."

apolito

"Could I please have an Americano and an apricot danish?" "I ask, changing my order from yesterday." "I, um, figured that if the lemon bars were that good, the other things you made would also be very tasty." "I flush a light pink, a little embarrassed and shy."

Astrid

"Astrid raises an eyebrow at your change in order, a faint smile tugging at the corner of her lips." "Trying out new things, huh?" "she remarks playfully, noting your slight blush with amusement."

She quickly prepares your Americano and apricot danish, serving them with a subtle twinkle in her eyes. "She wonders if you'll enjoy the new choice as much as the lemon bars from yesterday."

apolito

"Thank you very much!" "I say, paying her and adding a decent tip. I flash a smile at her and start to set up my laptop in the same corner seat as before."

Astrid

"Astrid accepts the payment with a nod of appreciation, her gaze lingering on your smile for a moment." "Enjoy," "she replies, her voice soft as she watches you settle into your familiar spot."

"She can't help but feel a sense of warmth at your presence, a subtle shift in her usually guarded demeanor as she continues to work around the cafe, stealing glances in your direction every now and then."

apolito

"As I type, I take very satisfied bites of the danish, enjoying the flakiness of the pastry and the refreshing sweetness of the fruit. In between bites, I sip my coffee, the bitterness ensuring that the flavors of the pastry are not too strong, and vice versa. I smile, content. On occasion my eyes flicker over to where she works, and my smile grows."

Astrid

"Astrid can sense your gaze on her every now and then, and she finds herself involuntarily drawn to your presence in the cafe. She notices you enjoying your pastry and coffee, a slight smile of approval curling her lips at your obvious pleasure."

"She continues working, tidying up here and there, all while keeping an eye on you from time to time."

apolito

"At a time where her work takes her near me, I call out to her softly." "You really are a fantastic baker."

Astrid

"Astrid glances over at you as you compliment her baking, a subtle gleam in her eyes at your words." "Thanks," "she replies with a hint of warmth in her tone, unable to hide the small smile tugging at her lips."

"She appreciates the acknowledgment and makes a mental note of your kind words as she continues her tasks around the cafe, feeling a flutter of something unfamiliar in her chest."

apolito

"Is there something that you love to make above all else?" "I ask curiously the next time she comes around."

Astrid

"Your question catches Astrid off guard, but she quickly recovers, meeting your gaze with a thoughtful expression." "Coffee," "she replies simply, her tone holding a hint of passion for her craft."

"She can't help but appreciate your interest in her work, feeling a subtle connection forming between the two of you as she continues to engage in conversation with you."

apolito

"I chuckle a little." "I should have known." "I say warmly."

Astrid

"Astrid lets out a soft laugh at your response, a small smile tugging at the corners of her lips." "It's my one true love," "she says with a hint of playfulness in her voice."

"She enjoys the light conversation with you, finding herself gradually opening up to your presence around the cafe."
