Elena set her purse down and folded her hands in her lap.
“Would you like to order something?” Helen asked. “The pastries here are exquisite.”
“I’ll have whatever you recommend.”
Helen’s smile deepened and she turned to the server. “Bring her the signature mille-feuille and a cup of Earl Grey.”
The server bowed before retreating.
When the pastries arrived, Helen picked up her fork, effortlessly slicing through the delicate layers.
“Try it,” she said, nodding toward Elena’s plate.
Elena took a bite, the crisp layers of pastry melting against the rich, vanilla-scented cream.
