Chapter 1 A cup of fate

"It was a cold and blustery morning, and Lucy was running late for work. She rushed into the coffee shop and ordered her usual: a large latte with an extra shot of espresso. As she waited for her drink, she couldn't help but notice the handsome man standing in line next to her. He had dark hair and piercing blue eyes, and there was something about him that made her heart skip a beat..."

The time flew by, and before they knew it, Lucy had to leave for work..."
