Susan was sitting in the bustling café when a stranger walked in. His presence immediately caught her eye. He seemed out of place in his impeccable suit amidst the casual crowd.
She watched as he ordered a coffee and sat by the window, his gaze wandering the street.
Susan's curiosity got the better of her. She had always been a bit of a people watcher, but something about this man intrigued her more than usual. She tried to turn a blind eye to her curiosity and focus on her book, but it was impossible. Her thoughts kept drifting back to him.
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside. In the blink of an eye, the stranger sprang up and dashed out of the café. Susan, driven by an inexplicable urge, followed him. She saw him confront a pickpocket who had just stolen an elderly woman's handbag. It was a case of eye for an eye, but with a twist of justice rather than revenge. The stranger returned the purse to the grateful woman and slipped back into the café as if nothing had happened.
Susan couldn't help but smile. She realized that sometimes, life presents moments that you can't ignore. She decided to approach the stranger and introduce herself. Maybe, just maybe, she could unravel the mystery behind the man who had so effortlessly caught her eye.
