It Must Be Fate

Lena arrived at the coffee shop. It was fairly empty, and she arrived before Tina, so she chose a random table by a window.

She did not notice that sometime she knew was sitting at the table behind her. She sat for a moment in silence and stared at the menu. She never went to a coffee shop like this before, so she had no idea what coffee to choose.

"I recommend you choose this one." A familiar voice said right next to her. She saw the person pointing to something on the menu. She looked up to see who was there, and she saw...

Ryan. She looked back at the menu where he was pointing and saw that the name of the coffee was in another language and she had no clue what it meant, so she decided to listen to Ryan's opinion and order that drink.

She turned back to Ryan and said, "thank you for the suggestion, but... why are you here?"

Ryan smiled, "I'm getting coffee. Why else would I be here."

He hesitated for a moment, and Lena had no good response to tell him.

Finally he continued talking. "It's such a coincidence to see you here! You never used to come to places like this. It must be fate that we meet here!"

He paused and then continued softly, "unless, of course, you came here to follow me."
