She wore a turtleneck all day, hiding what looked like a hickey on her neck. It wasn't until she changed into a low-cut tank top that her delicate neck and the noticeable purple spot caught everyone's eyes.
Leo hollered, "My uncle is so badass."
Mia joined in, "Definitely."
This man, cheekily referred to as 'badass' by his wife and nephew, knocked off work early. He grabbed the movie tickets on the table, ready to pick up his wife. Along the way, he parked the car and got in line to buy his wife a latte.
This was Andre's first time buying a latte, so he wasn't sure what his wife preferred. Therefore, he asked the barista for a recommendation.
The barista suggested, "You could try our signature latte. It's quite popular."
He took the barista's advice and decided to get the signature latte.
The barista asked, "Would you like it iced, sir?"
Andre replied, "No."
The ladies in line couldn't help but sneak glances at this handsome man. Some were subtle, while others were quite bold.
"He's so hot," someone commented.
"This guy looks like Andre."
Suddenly, the atmosphere turned quiet...
Everyone's opinion of this man changed. Initially, they were just attracted to his good looks and thought it was a bit odd for a man in a suit to be buying a latte. However, after looking at the photo on their phones, their opinions changed entirely. Everyone was stunned, unable to react.
Andre didn't hide his identity nor did he engage in much conversation with those around him.
Suddenly, the coffee for the person in front of him was ready. The coffee looked pretty good, he guessed his wife would like it.
Andre stopped the lady, asking, "What's this one called?"
The lady was a bit surprised and froze. "This is... this is..."
"A new cappuccino," the barista said.
Andre turned to the barista, "Add another cappuccino, my wife should like it."
"Mr. Cedillo, are you buying this for your wife?"
Thinking of Mia back home, always so adorable, he lovingly replied, "She loves to eat, especially roadside coffee and juice. I got off work early today, so I'm bringing her back a couple of cups."
The barista immediately started preparing his order.
Soon, Andre's coffee was ready. He took the coffee and made a call to his father at home.
Hansen was engrossed in a game, having a great time.
"I didn't realize you could play games on a phone. I can play this all afternoon without getting bored." Hansen sat on the couch with his maid, playing on his phone.
"Mia is always sharing these fun and interesting games with me. She even plans to teach me how to play this Pug game."
"Sir, Ms. Mia said the game is called PUBG."
Hansen waved it off, "Whatever it's called, my daughter-in-law is the best."
Suddenly, while engrossed in his game, Hansen received a call from his son. A bit irritated, he answered, "Can't you just say it in the group chat? Why do you have to call and interrupt my game?"
