Chapter 1 Stolen Glances

The café buzzed with the hum of conversation and the hiss of the espresso machine, but for Liza, time seemed to slow down. She sat at her usual corner table, ostensibly absorbed in her book. Yet, every few minutes, her eyes would drift upward, searching for a glimpse of the man who had, unwittingly, become the focal point of her thoughts.

Across the room, Daniel was equally distracted. His friends' laughter and jokes faded into the background as he stole yet another glance in Liza's direction. The fleeting eye contact, the shy smiles exchanged when their gazes met, had become the highlight of his daily visits to the café.

Neither had the courage to bridge the gap between them, both content yet frustrated by the unspoken connection. It was in these stolen glances that they found a sweet torture, a silent understanding that spoke volumes.

One day, as Liza turned a page in her book, a shadow fell over her table. She looked up, her heart racing. Daniel stood there, holding two streaming cups of coffee, a hopeful smile playing on his lips. "Mind I join you?" he asked, bis voice trembling ever so slightly.

In that moment, the spell of stolen glances was broken. The unspoken became spoken, and the possibility of what could finally took its first breath.

Liza felt her heart skip a beat as Daniel took a seat across from her. The warm aroma of freshly brewed coffee mingled with the faint scent of his cologne, creating an intoxicating blend that made her feel lightheaded. For a moment, they sat in silence, each too absorbed in the sudden reality of their proximity to speak.

Daniel, sensing her nervourness, decided to break the ice. "I'll see you here often," he began, his voice soft and reassuring. "You always seem so engrossed in your book. What are you reading?"

Liza smiled, grateful for the gentle promt. "It's a classic novel," she replied, holding up the cover for him to see. "I've read it a dozen times, but it never gets old."

Their conversation flowed naturally after that, each question and anwer unraveling another layer of their personalities. They discovered shared interests-books, music, a love for travel- and bonded over their mutual affection for the little café they both frequented.

As they talked, Liza found herself growing more at ease. Daniel's easygoing manner and genuine interest in her words made the conversation feel effortless. She admired the way his eyes crinkled at tge conrners when he laughed at the sincerity in his voice when he spoke about his dreams and aspirations.

By the time they finished their coffee, the initial shyness hed melted away, replaced ba a warm camaraderie. They exchanged phone numbers and made tentative plans to meet again. As Daniel stood to leave, he paused and looked at Liza, his eyes filled with a promise of something more.

"I'm glad I finally approached you," he said, his voice filled with earnestness. "I've been wanting to do that for a while."

Liza's smile widened. "Me too," she admitted. "I'm looking forward to our next coffee date."

With that, Daniel left the café , and Liza watch him go, her heart light and her mind buzzing with the possibilities of what lay ahead. The once stolen glances had given way to serendipitous conversations, and she couldn't wait to see where this unexpected connection would lead.
