“Miss, are you alright?” a server approached me, noticing my unusual expression and asking with concern.

I quickly turned around, pretending nothing was wrong, and said, “I’m fine. Actually, I think I’ll stay a little longer. Could you bring me another cup of coffee?”

After speaking, I returned to my scat as if nothing had happened.
