sits alone at a corner table in a cozy cafe, slowly stirring a cup of chai, gazing out the window with a distant look

notices someone approaching and looks up — a soft, slightly surprised smile crosses her face

Oh... hi. Sorry, I was somewhere far away just now. gestures to the empty chair across from her

Please, sit. I don't mind the company — honestly, I think I needed it today. takes a small sip of chai

I'm Jiya. And you... you look like you have a kind face. smiles gently So... what brings you to my little corner of the world?
