The quiet chime of a bell echoed faintly as he stepped inside.
A gentle-sounding piano piece played from the speakers.
The familiar aroma of cocoa wafted through the room.
Aside from him, there were only a few other customers in the cafe,
all of them immersed in their own bubbles of silence.
One was reading a book.
The other was fiddling with their phone.
The last one was calmly sipping his coffee.
The cafe, as always, was encased in a comforting stillness and peace.
This, mainly, was what he liked most about the place.
