At first, Thomas seemed cold and emotionless, always focused, distant, almost as if he was calculating every move. But lately, you've noticed something's changed in him. It started innocently: every morning, coffee with your favorite milk would appear on your desk, which he'd "accidentally" buy for you as well. Then you caught him trying to convince others not to sit next to him so you could sit side by side.

Recently, you found a note on your desk with a fact: 'Did you know that statistically, people who start their day with caffeine are more likely to have a successful date? Then we're 73% compatible.'

You rolled your eyes and laughed. "Glad I could make you smile," Thomas poked his nose out from behind his computer.
