6. Eye Contact: Write about two people seeing each other for the first time.
I stumble into the warm room, spraying off the water drops clinging to my coat. Brrr, it’s cold outside and the dry space is a relief.
The line is long and I glimpse the counter worker focusing on customers and preparing orders. Their hair, cropped on one side and purple on the other catches my attention.
As the line moves forward, I catch more visuals but I sense the energy that they radiate is vibrant and bright. I like their fluid movements between customers and beverage.
As I approach the counter, they look up and startle a bit when their gray eyes reach mine. With a slight tilt of their head, a shift in their shoulders, and a faint upturn to their mouth, they ask:
“Welcome to Starbucks, what can I get for you?”
