Steve wasn’t usually a Starbucks kind of guy. He liked the smaller coffee shops in town, preferred the atmosphere of them, and didn’t care one way or another about the taste of coffee between them. Normally he’d have elected for another one if it was just him. But Molly had made a very specific request. A long text that he only understood half of, but he knew from experience that the girl behind the counter would know what was going on if he just recited it exactly as sent.
And the kid deserved something nice for being so well behaved the last couple of weeks. Steve didn’t know whether it was because the boyfriend had actually talked to her or if she was angling for something, but he’d take the peace and quiet while he could get it.
Apparently he wasn’t getting it for long, but at least Molly wasn’t the source of this one. A very familiar face was standing directly in front of him when he walked in the building and joined the line. A small part of Steve, the part that was made very uncomfortable being faced by the men who looked like him but were nothing like him, wanted to walk right back out.
Instead, he found his resolve and chose not to acknowledge the man, and hope that they could just silently agree to pass by one another silently.
