“Hello, Miss! Would you like some cake, or will you be heading to the café?”

“Hmmm…” Mary turned to the man beside her for guidance.

“We’ll head to the café,” he responded.

“Great! Would you like to sit inside? Or we have a small terrace out back with tables as well.”

There were a few small tables with vases of English roses. The place left Mary fascinated, she admired it as if fate had granted her a glimpse of heaven.
