A Quiet Morning at the Local Café
By Jasmine Gan
A small café becomes a popular meeting place for residents looking for a relaxed start to the day.

The café opens early each morning, welcoming local residents before they begin work or school. Some customers come in for a quick coffee, while others choose a quiet table where they can read or catch up on their plans for the day.
The café offers a simple selection of coffee, tea, fresh bread, and pastries. The menu changes slightly throughout the week, depending on the ingredients available from nearby suppliers.
During the morning, the café gradually becomes busier as more people arrive. Friends often meet for breakfast, while some customers prefer to sit alone and work on their laptops.
One of the café’s most popular features is its small outdoor seating area. Surrounded by trees and plants, the space gives customers a comfortable place to enjoy their drinks while watching people pass by.
By late morning, the café becomes quieter again. The staff begin preparing for the afternoon, while regular customers leave and return to their daily routines. For many people in the neighbourhood, the café has become a familiar place to relax and meet others.
