Title: Café La Vie

Description:
In the heart of a quiet town, Café La Vie is more than just a coffee shop-it's a refuge for Taenus, a shy and anxious young woman who finds safety behind the counter and in the rhythm of routine. But when a mysterious customer with a familiar face asks for "the usual," her carefully constructed world begins to waver. As the café buzzes with everyday life, Taenus must navigate her fears, uncover hidden memories, and slowly discover what it means to be seen-not just as a barista, but as herself. A tender tale of self-discovery, quiet courage, and the magic in ordinary moments.
