Work Text:
Rose goes to the coffee shop every Monday to see her. She is a laughing, swearing, and vibrant barista. She spends the extra minute or two to get to know her customers and joins them in the joys and pains of their day. More than once, Rose has seen her help a person in need or call out a particularly rude individual. She is truly a good person.
Her name is Donna.
Both her and Rose know that fact, though Donna does not know that she knows. In this scenario, Rose is just the customer who orders the half-sweet latte.
Donna does not remember knowing Rose, but smiles a little more to her than the other customers. There is closeness there. There is something more between them than Donna knows.
The doctor cannot visit, for fearing of triggering her memory, but Rose does it for him. Though he has stopped asking about her, Rose continues to frequent the shop every Monday.
