Every Tuesday morning, the sun shines brightly over the small town of Oakridge. The streets are calm, and people walk slowly along the green park. At the corner of the main street stands the warm and cozy Green Oak Cafe. Inside, the air smells wonderful, full of freshly ground coffee beans and sweet cinnamon. In the back corner, there is a large round wooden table near the sunny window. This table has belonged to four good friends for almost three years now. Every single week at exactly ten oclock, they gather at this exact spot. Their weekly coffee meetings are a very important part of their routine. No matter how busy their lives become, they always make time for each other. The clock on the wall strikes ten, and the front door bell rings softly. Clara enters first, carrying her canvas bag filled with notebooks and sketchbooks. She is a talented local artist who loves painting outdoor landscapes and wild nature. She wears a cozy cotton sweater and comfortable blue denim trousers. Clara walks directly to the table and puts her bag on the wooden chair. She smiles because she loves the soft light near the window. Just a moment later, the door opens again, and Leo walks inside.
