A Distant Coffee Shop

-Prologue-

There's a coffee shop on the corner of first street. No one knows how long the coffee shop had been there, nor who the original owners were.

The coffee shop was small and homey. It had a comfortable atmosphere that made people wanna return again and again. Anyone could see that the baristas had an amazing relationship with each other.

They were like a family. They treated each other well and often teased each other. Nobody knew if they met at the coffee shop or some other place.

The main barista was a guy who always tried to make it onto work on time. He was nice but didn't talk as often as the other baristas. He liked telling people stories of his band and how he found the coffee shop.

The secondary barista was guy who was mainly in charge of the snacks. He was a very social person who could become friends with people in a second although sometimes he left work to run an "errand."

The manager was someone who was willing to protect all the baristas despite being on the young side. They were always aware of what was going on and made sure they could handle a situation before interfering.

The owner was a very nice girl who took on a parent role to the other employees. She was older than the rest and was in charge of keeping everyone in their place and she was the most experiences. She was caring and nurturing but was strict when she had to be.

A normal day in the coffee shop was mainly full of customers coming in and out or just sitting and hanging out. The coffee shop was a place where people didn't feel judged. Everyone was accepted in the coffeeshop on the corner of first street. It was run by lgbt+ employees who made everyone feel at home and like they could trust them. It was a nice coffee shop that always had a small spike in growth every week.

They were a family.
