บท 228: Steamy Beanery

Steamy Beanery was a coffee shop that had obviously seen better days, with oil smudges on their glass windows and the wallpaper slightly peeling at the edges. But there was a heady scent of caffeine in the air, along with the faint smell of fresh bread that put Amelia's mind at ease. 

Her eyes roved around the coffee shop, looking for a shock of red hair. However, as it was nearing dinner time, the coffee shop was quite deserted, and there was no one matching that description. She sighed and went to the counter to ask if there was someone called Leo who was waiting there. 

The barista nodded and pointed to the booth at the corner. "He's over there!" 

Amelia looked over. From her point of view, she could only see the blond head of an adult man. Maybe he shared the same name as Leo? 

"The person I'm looking for is a teenage boy," Amelia said to the barista. "Did he come with the blond man?"
