Charlotte + Jayati
PG-13 Just in case | Ongoing | At Sweets For My Sweets
There were definitely greater mysteries to happen in Summerview than a mysterious coffeeshop appearing overnight, and Jayati herself had witnesses stranger things out in the great wide world as well without a doubt. But that didn't mean she wasn't curious, it was her job after all.
A wave of scents hit her as soon as she opened the door, along with canned laughter and excited whispers, the sounds of excited chatter and clattering plates. Jayati was surprised to feel the tension she carried by default in her shoulders seep out as the door closed behind her, as if she had been in a place where she had been dozens of time before instead of her very first visit. The menu was large, colorful, and Jayati took care to step away from the line to take a closer look at it and the shop so she wouldn't be in the way. It seemed she wasn't the only one curious about this new place that somehow seemed to define non-threatening down to it's core.
It should have been alarming, but honestly, it was just the sort of thing they needed these days what with the weather and the missing people. So she was going to try and not over analyze it.
It wasn't too crowded, yet the side step out of the main group had her bumping into someone. Her fault for being too focused on looking around instead of where she was going, "Shit, sorry."
