Kou was silent as his fingers slowly traced over the bandages in the small kit on the table in front of him. His normally big eyes were squinting at the small lettering scribbled in the corner of each package. “Mnn, I still don’t understand how you managed to cut your leg walking” His voice was soft, comforting as he turned with a medium sized package in his fingers. “You’re lucky I studied spiritual medicine when I was growing up” As he leaned down to kneel in front of the woman a smile appeared against his lips. Slowly he moved his hand to hover over the cut, closing his eyes briefly before a pale blue light began to glow beanth his fingers. A moment later the light faded, his fingers working quickly to placed the banage over the wound.

She couldn’t say, and even when she wanted to, the words seemed to stop at the tip of her tongue. She didn’t get the cut from merely walking, a few girls had decided it was funny to trip Tina when she wasn’t paying attention while she was delivering coffee to a customer. She suppressed her anger, swallowed it, and in a few moments she gave a tight smile while apologising to no one in particular. Instead of getting her leg treated, she had decided to just leave it, while tears threatened to overflow from the brim of her round eyes. It was later when a young man offered to treat it that she noticed the cut on her leg. “I’m… not sure either. Maybe, i’m just clumsy” She replied in a relaxed manner in order to lighten up the mood, or more like, her own mood.

Just before she began to slip back into her own thoughts, a faint light emerged from the young man’s palm. Staring at him wide-eyed she wondered “How… how did you do that? It’s beautiful…” the words slipped from her lips unknowingly before she quickly added “Wait, can you show me again?” her tear-brimming eyes immediately became overtaken by curiosity and admiration as he bandaged her wound.

❝不愉快です. // How unpleasant.

Tina watched the time pass bit by bit, customers come and go, and every story unfold. She remembered the strong, unwavering love her parents had for each other. She remembered their love as clear as the clear sky, but she couldn’t understand it. She couldn’t understand how they could love each other so much despite all their flaws. Tina had witnessed many unpleasant aspects of love; yet, when she recollected her memories, she remembered the laughters and innumerable stories that only her parents knew, like a shared secret between the both of them that Tina had no part of.

However, life wasn’t kind and laughters didn’t last long. When her parents passed away due to a unfortunate accident, they had left the cafe shop they had built together to her as a reminder that Tina would one day find someone, no matter how long she had to wait. Hence, the name: Café. Waiting. Love, was born. Of course, Tina didn’t believe in what her parents had said to her. However, they were words she took to heart. Tina’s mother was originally from an affluent family. However, her mother was chased out from her own family and removed from her family register due to her love for Tina’s father. If Tina could say so herself, it was the classic Romeo and Juliet. The only difference in the two stories was that a child was born. Tina was born out of love.

Tina was normal, regular and enjoyed chatting with customers while watching busy walkers take hurried steps to reach to their destinations as she sat by the window sill with her head leaned against the clean glass. Regardless of her past, Tina had witnessed the miracles of the cafe. It was as if her parent’s love had permeated and placed a special love charm on the people who walked into the cafe. She had witnessed first- time customers go from lonely singles into committed lovers in a coincidental meeting of another partner in the cafe. Ironically, she still had not met her faithful partner. Did it bother her? Not one bit, but she always found a indescribable joy when she was able to help a lonely person find an anchor, a support. After awhile, she noticed how the city is filled with isolation and empty dreams, Sometimes, instead of returning to her apartment, Tina would fall asleep in the cafe. It was just as if she lives in the cafe.

❝THE CAFE? — //

每一個人，都在等一個人. Everyone is waiting for that someone. This is what the cafe is about. It is for the people out there who are looking for that special someone. It is for those people out there who just needs a place to pass time, and fill in the emptiness they may feel from the coldness of society with a warm cup of coffee.
