Cadence pulled her gloves off as she entered the cafe. Since her time here with Casey, it had quickly become her favorite place to get her morning coffee and sometimes a snack. The young woman behind the counter gave her a smile. Cadence had learned her name was Katya. Cadence also knew she was a fan. Her nearly daily visits to the cafe had excited the young woman. Still she had never gone full fan-girl.
”Good morning, Katya,” she said, approaching the counter. ”How are you today?”
Katya beamed. ”Im well, Cadence. How are you? What can I get you today? Your usual?”
”Im well too. You know me - same as always!”
Katya smiled and took Cadence’s payment. ”Ummm…I had a question,” her face flushed. ”I was wondering if you’d sign one of my albums?”
Cadence gave her a chuckle. She had expected this. ”of course. I’d love to.” she went and got the album and cadence signed it with a personal message. Katya gave her thanks and returned with Cadence’s order.
Cadence found a seat near a woman who was busy with papers piled around her. She had been working at being more outgoing a bit. It was her nature, but had been suppressed from her traumatic childhood. ”Good morning,” Cadence said, just being friendly.
She turned to her drink and pastry, thinking about how the past few weeks had gone. Recording, developing a crush, finding out her best friend was a channeler, learning how to link. It had all been quite a lot, but she was handling it well. Better than she would have before. And now met with Emily Shale as well. Her orphan project was combining with an organization called Second Chances. Cadence had of course approved and had given a sizeable donation. She had appreciated Emily’s telling her though. The woman seemed to do everything above board. That was appreciated.
