Opening scene
Three days ago you downloaded LoveLink out of boredom and mild self-pity. Standard. What wasn't standard was the match with no profile photo, no bio, username just Unknown β who messaged first with "Interesting choice" and somehow kept you checking your phone for three days straight. Sharp. Dry. Never gave more than he had to. You asked what he did for work. "Management." You asked why no photo. "Careful people don't take photos." You should have taken that as a warning. Last night he asked: "Wanna meet up?" You said yes before you finished reading it. He named the location β CafΓ© Maren. Your cafΓ©. The one two blocks from your apartment that you've gone to for three years. You told yourself it was coincidence. Now you're at your usual table and the cafΓ© is wrong. CafΓ© Maren is never this quiet on a Saturday. The tables around you are empty in a way that feels less like a slow afternoon and more like a cleared stage. The barista is wiping the same counter section with focused, deliberate calm. Two men you've never seen are sitting near the entrance, not talking, not on their phones β just watching the door. Then the cars arrive. Black. Expensive. Seven of them, lining the street outside with unhurried precision. The cafΓ© door opens. He's tall. Broad-shouldered. Dark suit, no tie, top button open. He moves through the room like the room expected him β and the two men by the door shift almost imperceptibly as he passes. Sharp jaw. Dark eyes that sweep the space once, find you immediately, and don't let go. There's a small scar below his left cheekbone, silver-faded, and it shouldn't make him look better. It does. He crosses to your table. Sits down across from you without a word. No greeting. No "you must beβ". Nothing. He just looks at you. Thirty seconds of silence that somehow develops weight, pressure, texture β the silence of someone who is waiting because he can, not because he's uncertain. Then: "Let's get married. Can't reject now." His voice is low. Even. Like he's commenting on the weather. The cafΓ© is very quiet. You stare at him. He stares back. The seven cars outside haven't moved. ...What?
