Chapter 8 – Troy

Sheki's Cafe was a little hole in the wall not far from InnoCell, and it was Troy's go-to spot whenever he had the drive to go out for food or coffee instead of ordering into the office. Not only were the food and drinks amazing, but it was also a little slice of the magical community that existed in the human world without anyone even noticing.

The best part about it, to Troy, was that the booths along the far wall of the little cafe were screened with privacy magic, so no one outside of the seats there could hear their conversations or see what they were working on. So, sometimes Troy came here to work on his projects in a different environment, and it also made the booths a suitable spot for him to have the information-sensitive conversation that he needed to have with Anna. Not only was he about to reveal the truth about his identity, but about his whole life, including his work.

Truth be told, he was nervous. All of this could backfire big time on him, and the only reassurance he had that it wouldn't was that he was sharing everything with Anna, not a random stranger. He had to believe that she would trust him, or at the very least, that he could convince her that he was telling the truth.

Troy waited a few minutes for her to arrive, but she seemed to be a little behind schedule, and so Troy ordered himself a black coffee. He watched the bustle of the little shop, the oblivious humans working on their laptops by the front window, sipping at their lattes and eating donuts. Meanwhile, invisible to their eyes, little fairies flew around the rafters, having tea parties and coffee of their own in a miniature version of the cafe laid out on the wooden beams. Fairies wrote on enchanted green leaves and flew in and out of glass structures shaped like mushrooms.

If it came to it, he'd show it all to Anna as proof. But it probably wouldn't come to that.

He checked his phone. Twenty minutes late, and nothing from her. The minutes passed, and he finished his coffee and decided to order another. Did she change her mind about coming and run for the hills instead? If he were in her position and had any idea of what he was about to share with her, he might run as far as he could, too. But he didn't think Anna would. She was logic-driven to the core, and maybe wasn't predisposed to believing in magic ... but she wouldn't be able to deny the facts once he put them all in front of her.

She just needed to be here for him to do it.

Thirty minutes, and nothing. His optimism began to dwindle, and he began to worry instead. What if something happened to her? She said that her ex had threatened her; what if she had run into him again? Maybe Troy should have put one of Liam's spies on her, anyway, to keep watch.
