The Perk - Saturday late morning
Nell had said she'd meet Lana here today, but she was already regretting it a little. Not the meeting Lana part, she'd certainly missed her the past nine years. It was the looks and whispers that followed her and her bruised face.
She'd spent most of the last nine years alone and so many people around, even if they weren't staring, was a bit uncomfortable.
The barista who got her her coffee and a decadent pastry, leaned in and told her Nell she didn't have to put up with abuse, and encouraged her to talk to the police before saying that her order was on the house. Nell thanked her, assured her that she was safe now and left a generous tip before retreating to a quiet corner to wait for Lana.
[Perk is open, of course!]
