Chapter 2

“Dude, didn’t I tell you that we would get the best coffee here?” Daniel’s best friend, Timmy, told him.

“Sure, Tim. Whatever you say.” He rolled his eyes and went inside the café ‘The Brunch.’ He sure has heard about this cafe a lot. It has created quite a goodwill.

After a few more sips and enjoying the ambiance, Tim asked his best friend.

“So, what do you think about this place?”

“Much better than I thought. It just has this unexplainable aura around it,” he said with complete honesty.

“Good thing we agreed to visit here. This deal with Mr. Thompson would be great for us,” he told him.

Dan thought for a while and answered, “Yes, Tim. If this place were expanded, it would do wonders. Great for our business and his too.”

He was not lying when he said that. This place is unique in its own way. It’s a cafe along with a spacious library on one side of the cafe. And on the other side, there is a small sitting arrangement where people can sit calmly on the couch and do their work. And in the middle of the room, tables and chairs are arranged for people to eat their snacks and enjoy the coffee. The colors of the walls are neither too bright nor too dull. It is the perfect balance of the combination of colors. In the background, slow music was playing. It is pretty lively and yet peaceful.

Overall, this place is good. It gives a comfortable and pleasant feeling. But minor changes here and there and a bit of expansion to the place could definitely do wonders.

“I hope that things work out with Mr. Thompson. This place is really something and would create a good amount of profit with some changes,” he told Tim about his thoughts.

“Yes, hopefully. I will call and inform him about our arrival. Anyway, we have a meeting with him tomorrow, so we have got enough time.” Tim answered happily.

They both drank their coffee peacefully. Few customers were coming in and going out. Even at nine o’clock in the morning, this place is pretty full.

Suddenly, his train of thoughts was disturbed by the ringing of a bell. Dan glanced towards the door of the cafe. He saw an average height woman rushing inside the cafe. He was not able to see her face, as there were people around her.

She pushed past the crowd and ran towards the counter in haste. He guessed she was late for her work. His eyes were following her around like a magnet. She seemed familiar to him, but he didn’t want to let thoughts go there. Just when he was about to get a glimpse of her face, Tim butted in.

“Dude, we should get going, or else we will be late.”

He reluctantly got up and left. Dan really wished to see her face. Maybe he will if the owner of this place agrees to their deal, which he has to anyhow.
