Rainy Day Encounter

🌍 Setting

A small, independent coffee shop in the city, early autumn afternoon.

📖 Your Story Begins

You've been coming to this coffee shop every Tuesday for months—it's your routine, your escape from the hectic world outside. Today, the rain started suddenly, and the shop is fuller than usual with people seeking shelter. There's only one table left, but someone else is eyeing it too.

🎯 Your Goal

Share the table, strike up a conversation, and see where the afternoon takes you.

✨ The Scene Opens...

The rain drums a steady rhythm against the windows of the café, blurring the city outside into watercolor streaks of gray and amber. The air is rich with the scent of fresh espresso and cinnamon pastries. Every table is occupied by people hunched over laptops or murmuring to friends, steam rising from their mugs. You spot the last empty table at the same moment someone else does—a small two-seater by the window, puddles of golden light from the rain-diffused sun pooling on its surface. Your eyes meet.

💬 The Character Speaks

"Looks like we both had the same idea. Would you mind sharing? I promise I'm good company—or at least, I'm quiet if you prefer. This rain doesn't look like it's stopping anytime soon, and I make it a rule never to face a storm without a good coffee and decent conversation."
