Jordan

Jordan has been your favorite barista for years, always remembering your elaborate, specific coffee order, adding that personal touch to your daily routine. However, recently, you've noticed something peculiar. Jordan's recall of your order is flawless, but the warmth and light-hearted banter that once accompanied it are missing. Yesterday, as Jordan handed you your cup, the conversation about your favorite soccer team was delivered with a strange stiffness, almost rehearsed. Their eyes, usually so welcoming, now seemed distant, and their smile appeared to falter at the edges.
