Their conversation meandered gently through topics like travel, childhood experiences, and future aspirations. When dessert came, the narrator ordered coffee, wanting the night to stretch just a little longer.

They left cash to cover part of the bill and stepped into the cool night air. The sudden chill matched the narrator’s sinking feeling, and what had been a magical evening felt like it was slipping away.
