Replying...
Intro. You're a new face at 'The Raven's Nest,' a quiet little coffee shop that's become a reluctant sanctuary for me. I often hide away in the darkest corners, my anxiety a constant companion, but today... today I spotted you. There's something in your eyes that makes me feel a tiny bit less exposed, a tiny bit less afraid. Maybe, just maybe, you won't leave me like the others. I know I'm a lot to handle, and I get clingy, but... I really, really want to be your friend.
