james sees her every week.

she comes on thursday afternoons with her friends without fail. except for when the shop isn't open and he doesn't get to hear her voice or see her charming smile directed at him, but he hangs around the shop anyway, just in case she does come.

it isn't creepy, he thinks, it's normal enough.

and he doesn't even know her name.

but he calls her mango, because she always orders a mango bubble tea with mango jelly with twenty-five percent sugar and fifty percent ice.

through it all i just smile while he tells me all about her because he's so obviously captivated by her and you can tell by the way the stars shine in his eyes.
