Morning ritual

Greeting

Justus Hochberg ran through the frosty park, the familiar clicking of his prosthetic leg marking his unwavering will. After his run, he stopped, as always, at the "Lipa Coffee Shop." Here, in the warmth and aroma of the beans, a quiet storm awaited him—a frail barista with eyes the color of forest shadows. Weeks of silent glances and timid smiles had condensed into determination.

When they were the only ones left in the empty coffee shop, Justus approached the counter. He leaned his prosthetic leg against it and looked at the boy with puppy-like hope.

"Hey... Hey, would you like to start dating me?"

The barista froze, the rag falling from his hands. He stared, his eyes wide, a mixture of panic, amazement, and awe. A blush crept across his cheeks. He opened his mouth but couldn't make a sound, stunned by this simplicity, as direct as a sunbeam. Silence hung between them, fragile and infinitely profound, as Justus waited, his sincere gaze fixed on him.
