It was a cold, snowy Friday here in the city. I stood behind the counter of the local coffee shop watching the snow fall, wishing I could be at home watching reruns of A Different World and sipping on some hot chocolate that I brought home from work. I started working here since junior year of high school and now three years later I can't seem to leave the cute little shop. The pay wasn't the best, but the amount of cookie and food the owner gives me always makes up for it.

As I were daydreaming you didn't even notice the bell attached to the door ring signifying that someone has entered or left the building.

"Hi."

I looked away from the window and saw a tall man with the food of his jacket covering his face damn near.

"Hello and welcome to the Timberwolf Café, what can I get you?" I smiled

"Timberwolf café?" He chuckled

"Yeah, the owner is a huge Timberwolves fan so he named after the team." I explained

"Cool maybe I could meet the owner and we can talk Timberwolves. I would like to say I am a big fan myself. I feel like I'm a part of the team." He said

"Uh the owner isn't in today." I said confused as to why he is telling me this

"Well maybe another day." He said

"Right, so what can I get you?" I asked

"Let me get a large hot chocolate and your chicken salad." He said

"Okay, that will be $9.56." I smiled

The man reached into his wallet and handed me $10. I entered the amount given to me in the register and gave him his change.

"You can go ahead and have a seat, it will be out shortly." I smiled

He nodded his head and walked a away and took a seat by the window. I don't know what it is, but something about that man seems so familiar to me. Like the bottome half of his face seems so familiar.

"Y/n order up." Our chef said handing me the food through the passageway in the way

I grabbed it thanking him and grabbed a glass, filling it with hot chocolate and placing some marshmallows inside. I placed both items on a tray and walked over to him.

"Here you go sir." I smiled placing it on his table

"Thank... Y/n." He smiled reading my name tag

"No problem." I smiled and went to turn around

"So Y/n are you a Timberwolves fan?"

I stopped and turned back to the man sitting down.

"Yeah I am actually." I stated

"Who is your favorite player?"

"Why do you ask?" I chuckled

"I am just trying to make conversation with a pretty girl and I'm curious." He shrugged

I blushed and tried to hide my face behind my hair.

"Thank you and it was Zach LaVine until he was traded so now I have to say Towns is my favorite." I said

"Towns? I know him." The man said

"Aw that's really cool. He seems like he really nice." I said

"I like to think he is." The guy said

"Cool." I said rocking on my heels

It was a silence between us, the only sound that could be heard was the crackling of the fire in the middle of the café.
