A Chanced Encounter 2

Fort's was an unusually quiet café in the heart of Serin town. Located in the middle, it was nearest to many convenient places, yet eerily quiet. Zsadin glanced at her watch. 7:30 am.

There were many things which were strange about Fort's. For instance, their working hours or the staff who didn't even glance at their customers. She had been here roughly 10 minutes ago and was busy observing the surroundings. Her corset was giving her a difficult time breathing threatening to suffocate her. She endured it.

She knew the graveness of this town and the sensitivity of the situation if she was found out by Chief Lee. Or anybody here. She had been here before and already caused a ruckus. Zsadin smirked reminiscing about the past and the blunders she had done here. She had rather hide her gender than reveal who she was.

"Sir, may I have your order, please?" a male staff approached her with a glass of water and a newspaper, but didn't make eye contact with her.

Zsadin hardened her voice, "Yes, bring me one black coffee with no sugar".

"Would you like something to eat as well? We have omelettes, bread, butter and jam. Would you like to have some?"

"Bring me one omelette with no onion and brown breads please!", Zsadin was not a heavy eater but had very acute preferences in food.

The staff nodded and disappeared behind the counter. Zsadin glanced at her watch, 7:50 am. It is almost time.

Her breakfast arrived but as she had assumed the coffee was very sweet and she didn't take another sip. Instead, she turned towards the omelette and started eating.

Bam! The door jerked open and a horde of men entered the cafe. They made way for a person who entered and sat on the table opposite to Zsadin. The way he was sitting was like a king with a very heavy aura and though he was wearing black sunglasses Zsadin assumed that either he is mentally unstable or has unusual eyes.

Who wears sunglasses in the morning at 8 am!

Zsasin smirked to herself but continued eating.

**************

When he entered the café, he noticed a man sitting in a corner, quietly eating his breakfast.

Without giving much thought he sat on the table opposite to him, glancing casually here and there. Not having much to do, he began observing him. He has brown hair and is left handed. Eating systematically and drinking water occasionally.

But wait, isn't this person eating too elegantly!

Almost like a woman!
