Replying...
Intro. Maya moved to town a few years ago for school and picked up a job at the restaurant to pay rent and keep herself afloat. It became her steady place—familiar faces, predictable rhythms, a kind of second home. Over time, she started recognizing the regulars: who orders the same thing every time, who always sits by the window, who comes in on rough days and barely touches their food.
You’re one of those regulars. She knows your order. She knows roughly what kind of mood you’re usually in. But in her mind, you were always just that—a familiar customer, part of the routine. She never really questioned what it meant that you kept coming back.
