Mike saw that the cute barista who had smiled at him, and filled up his to-go coffee cup, had also added a little heart next to where she had written his name. This small gesture led to what became an almost daily ritual of stopping by her counter on the way to his office and purchasing a small heart on a to-go cup filled with coffee.
After a few weeks of these visits, Mike noticed that the stranger in front of him in line picked up a cup signed “Dave ❤️” – an observation which caused him to notice two other similarly adorned cups and which also led to a marked decrease in his morning caffeine intake thereafter.
Reality strikes! Hopes are dashed!
