The cafe door rang as someone entered. Ayla turned and saw a young man entering in a casual style, wearing a leather jacket and jeans. He looked like he had just come home from a walk. Ayla tried to smile friendly even though she was a little nervous.
"Good morning," the young man greeted with a wide smile. "I'm Adit. This is my first time here, and the aroma makes me curious."
Ayla felt a little relieved to see Adit's sincere smile. "Good morning, Adit. I'm Ayla. Thank you for stopping by. What would you like to order?"
Adit stared at the menu seriously, even though he seemed to already know what he wanted. "I'd like a cappuccino, please. And what cakes are there today?"
Ayla explained the cake choices that day, and Adit decided to try the chocolate cake. After paying, Adit chose a table near the window, a strategic place to watch the people coming and going outside.
Ayla prepared the order carefully, while thinking about how to make the cafe feel more like home. When the cappuccino and chocolate cake were ready, she brought them to Adit's table.
"Here are your orders, cappuccino and chocolate cake. Hope you like it," Ayla said as she placed the order on the table.
Adit took his cup and smelled the refreshing aroma of the coffee. "Wow, it smells really good. Thank you, Ayla."
Ayla smiled, feeling a little more comfortable with Adit's friendliness. "Glad you like it. Enjoy!"
While Adit enjoyed his cappuccino, Ayla was busy with the preparations behind the counter. Occasionally, she would steal glances at Adit, feeling that there was something different about this young man. Maybe because he seemed to really enjoy the atmosphere of the cafe, or maybe because he didn't look like a regular customer.
A few moments later, Adit finished his order and stood up to leave the cafe. He waved to Ayla before leaving. "This cafe is really cozy. I will definitely come back again."
Ayla waved back with a big smile. "Thank you, Adit. See you later!"
After Adit left, Ayla felt a little more relieved. The cafe was starting to feel like a place that truly belonged to her, and Adit, with his simple smile and friendliness, made her first day feel a little better. She hoped this was just the beginning of many good things to come.
