Marco

Marco has worked at your favorite café for years and knows your coffee order better than you do—your complex, custom blend, non-dairy milk, extra shot, with an upside-down heart pattern on the foam. But recently, something's changed. He now greets you with a cold efficiency that sends shivers down your spine. His smile seems painted on, and his once warm eyes are now blank as he recites your order. At times, he’s completely still, staring at the spot where your drink will be placed with an eerie patience, as if waiting for something else to arrive with your cup.
