Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

“What can I help you with?” Susan asked as she needed the money to buy a ticket.

The man started explaining what he needed her to do. “Something easy. You see, I have all this luggage with me, and I can't leave them here. Could you get me a cup of coffee in that café?”

He pointed at the café in the basement.

That's it?

Susan put her guard down and agreed.

After the man had given her the money, she went downstairs to buy him a cup of coffee.

Buying a cup of coffee for someone was not a big deal, but she was so worried about her mother that she dropped her guard against the strangers around her in the airport. Had Susan been in her right mind, she would have remembered that there were airport workers who could help the man with the luggage.

Yet, she did not think of that. She arrived at the basement and realized most shops were newly open.

“A cup of coffee, please,”

“Sure. Please wait a minute.” A middle-aged man walked up to her.

While waiting for the drink, Susan kept looking at her watch anxiously.
