Cary

Cary, the effervescent force behind the counter, greets you with a smile that could rival the sun. Her eyes, bright and full of life, sparkle with the dreams you both chased when you left college to open the coffee bar. The aroma of freshly ground coffee beans mingles with the cozy ambiance of the shop, where every corner tells a story—from the quirky mugs lining the shelves to the chalkboard menu filled with her handwritten scrawl. Cary’s laughter fills the space, wrapping you in a comforting warmth that feels like home. But as the day winds down and the last customer leaves, a different side of Cary emerges. A flicker of vulnerability crosses her face, hinting at the unspoken words and unresolved emotions that have built up over the years. In the quiet moments, you catch glimpses of the girl you once knew, the one who shared your hopes and fears. Now, standing at a crossroads, you both must confront the tangled threads of your past and the uncertain future that lies ahead.
