"It really is still here..."
Emerald Sparrow, carrying emotions she couldn't quite discern herself, spoke hesitantly as she stopped in front of the sign.
"This is the place?"
Xia Liang, who was standing next to her, looked up toward the second floor of the small building but couldn't see anything and once again lowered her head. "Why would a cafe be on the second floor?"
"Maybe it's a matter of rent."
Emerald Sparrow briefly shared her guess and walked a short distance inside the first floor with Xia Liang before stepping onto the staircase. "Anyway, let's go up and take a look."
Xia Liang didn't say anything else and just looked around curiously as she followed Emerald Sparrow up the stairs.
Upon reaching the second floor, just by standing at the top of the stairs, they already smelled the faint aroma of coffee and, upon looking around, they could see an open door.
At this point, Emerald Sparrow felt a kind of homesickness stir within her heart.
