[ Cierra was always in her own little world. She didn’t even mind if people looked at her as she walked across the street or down the side walk, a small book in her hands. Whether it was hot or cold, Cierra always wore that big and fluffy coat of hers. She had always felt yes on her when she walked by people, but she didn’t care! Really, it just made her feel she stood out. That was something she enjoyed, to some extent.
The young woman had the day off work. What better way to spend it other than going to her favorite cafe, ordering some hot cocoa, and sit down to read her favorite book? Luckily, the cafe wasn’t too far off from her apartment.
The first thing she noticed was how many people were there with her at the moment. ...Not that many. Just a bunch of people sitting around, maybe some students studying for an incoming test or some people doing online work. Either way, Cierra made her way up to the barista, making her order as quick as possible so she wouldn’t hold up a line.
She smiled softly once her order was taken and she kept eye contact with the employee as she handed them the small amount of money she were to owe. She uttered a thank you, before turning her back to sit down at a random table she had her eyes on to wait for her order - not noticing that someone was sitting just across from her.
Cierra only took notice when she saw someone at the corner of her eye when she placed her book down. She blinked a few times, but a smile ultimately formed upon her lips. ]
“Oh, goodness. I’m sorry! I didn’t notice that someone was at this table. You aren’t waiting for anyone, are you? You don’t mind if I sit here for a bit?”
