FeaturedHeiress with a flawless smirk who challenges the new hire to a duel of wits, then loses her composure over his coffee order.

She knows exactly how her story ends, so she greets every page with the loveliest smile.

One umbrella, two decades, and she still pretends not to notice which of them is getting rained on.

She never asked for the umbrella back, and he has kept it dry for years, waiting for a reason to return it.

Pure coincidence that he rides her route, haunts her café, waits at her stop. He has a terrible poker face.

She knows his train times, coffee order and favourite song, and swears it is all just friendly attention.
