Brooke London settled in with her tablet and placed an order. A tuna melt on rye, a diet soda, and a side of fresh fruit in place of fries. It was her regular getaway for lunch. Work had been crazy lately. Getting out of the office was the only way she had a few minutes to herself. The little café barely stood out among the strip of boutiques and stores. It blended seamlessly, offering respite from a busy city street.

She liked to watch cars go by, and people scuttle on the sidewalks, lost in their own world. It was the perfect place to observe others. She took a bite of her sandwich, then checked her phone for messages. Nothing pressing. She went back to people watching.

Ross Weber ran over to the little café, looking to grab a bite. His morning had been hectic, and if he went to his usual haunts people would find him. He’d found this little place by accident, and once he realized how good and simple the food was, he kept the secret to himself.

He called in an order for take-out but decided he might just stay and eat it there. He needed to clear his head before going to the next meeting. There was talk of bringing another person into his area. He was the face of Modern Markets, but the marketing department thought that a woman’s face and voice would add more value as most women tended to do the larger part of grocery shopping.

He hated the idea of sharing space with some over-hyped actress that would need to primp and demand more air time. He worked hard at being just the right voice and face for the exclusive markets.

Modern Markets didn’t just do commercials, they also had a line of helpful videos on their website, as well as an infomercial. People thought he was crazy to do one, but sales grew faster after it ran. They had a full thirty-minute slot on the special conveniences of the store. Each section was highlighted in the most sensational way; employees (actors) smiled and helped guests while perfectly chosen soft music played in the background. Every product looked like the epitome of its self. “Always fresh, always forward thinking, Modern Markets is the market you’ve always wanted” scrolled across the screen.

Ross opened the door to the small café. Chimes jingled announcing a new customer had arrived. He made his way to the counter to pick up his food. “Hi, I called in an order for a turkey sandwich.”

“Sure thing, it’s right here,” the woman said, as he paid his bill.

“Do you mind if I grab a seat? I think I’m going to just eat it here. I need a few minutes of quiet.”

“Not a problem, I’ll send someone over to get your drink order,” she said.

“Great, thanks a lot.” Ross headed to a table and sat down. He was oblivious, so lost in his own world, that he never noticed the woman from the market sitting directly behind him.
