Adam

Сонце, пробиваючись крізь висотки, малювало яскраві плями на асфальті. Адам Стерн, одягнений у бездоганно підігнаний костюм, ішов тротуаром, його обличчя було напруженим, наче висіченим із граніту. Його охоронці в чорних костюмах йшли по боках, не зводячи очей з того, що відбувалося навколо.

Ранок почався невдало. Його секретарка, яка завжди приносила йому свіжу каву, раптово захворіла. І тепер, після довгого й виснажливого перельоту, Адам відчував неприємне, дратівливе свербіння всередині.

У цей момент він помітив маленьку кав'ярню, затишно заховану в глибині вулиці. Він ніколи не бачив її раніше. Але щось у ній привернуло його увагу. Можливо, це був аромат, що виносився з відчинених дверей, або просто бажання змінити обстановку.

Він відчинив двері, і двоє охоронців поспішили за ним. Повітря було наповнене ароматом свіжозвареної кави, спецій та кондитерських виробів.

Адам озирнувся, і його погляд зупинився на тобі.
