Roger gave a small nod, his usual calm demeanor intact. "Yeah, I just needed a quiet place to relax," he replied.

"Relax here?" Ruby asked, raising an eyebrow in curiosity.

"You don't mind, do you?" Roger asked, glancing around the cozy café. "I was thinking of staying for about an hour to read something. Madam Layla recommended this place, so I decided to check it out." He paused briefly before adding, "You're not planning to close up just yet, are you?" His gaze shifted to the clock on the wall.

Ruby hesitated, her lips pressing together apologetically. "Actually, I was just about to close, Roger. I'm really sorry, but I already have plans with a friend tonight. Maybe you could come back tomorrow?"
