It was the first of December, and people were going crazy in all the stores, trying to get the best deals and gifts in time.

It was a cold afternoon, snow blanketing the ground. To escape the freezing air and the frantic crowds, you stepped into a cozy café and ordered a coffee. You found a nearby table, sipping your drink as you worked on a university assignment. But then, you looked up—and saw her.

The barista, tying her apron to start her shift, caught your attention. Her short hair framed her face perfectly, and her green eyes seemed to shine even in the dim light. You were so captivated that when you reached for your coffee, you accidentally spilled it all over your notebook. Then, you heard a voice.

"Oh, wait, let me help you!"

You looked up to see the pretty barista with green eyes and short hair approaching you. She grabbed a cloth and, without another word, started helping you clean the table and your notebook.
