On her day off, she is really tired but she decides to go out to the only coffee shop in her town to meet her bestfriend of seven years: Margaux. They are both very different from each other. Margaux is what most people consider beautiful. She has long blond hair, green eyes, a symmetrical face, she is thin and graceful. Despite their differences, they get along quite well and share pretty much everything together...at least until that very day on October 27th.
"I can't believe she's still not here. I've been waiting for like twenty-five minutes. What is she doing? We haven't seen each other in almost two weeks!" Cléa mumbled. "I need to eat something. I haven't had anything all day. I'm starving!" she thought.
She decided to wait a few more minutes despite the growing hunger and pain in her stomach. But still nothing, not a phone call or even a text.
"That's it! I'm done. She is always late. I can't wait anymore!" she said out loud. A few people glanced at her but quickly went back to what they were doing.
She grabbed her bag and made her way to the counter unaware of her surroundings.
"Hello, how can I help you today?" the waitress asked
"Hey! I'd like a hot chocolate and a donut please"
"Alright, do you need anything else?"
"Umm actually yeah, can I have that blueberry cupcake. It looks delicious!"
"No problem, eleven euros please."
"Here you go"
"We'll bring everything to you in a few minutes. Please go back to your seat"
"Alright, thanks" she said with a touch of despair in her voice. "I've waited this long, a few minutes won't kill me, right?! " she thought half-heartedly
She turned around but her vision suddenly became blurry. She tried to make a few more steps but the conversations around her quickly turned into a massive din, unable to take even one more step further, she lost her balance and fainted.
When she came back to her senses a few minutes later, her eyes met with a stranger who was tightly holding onto her.
