Title: Timefall Café Level: Intermediate (B1–B2)

#Story :

Lucas discovers a mysterious café called Timefall, where every night a woman named Mira sits by the window, calm yet distant, as if watching something no one else can see. After days of silent connection, she finally reveals the truth: she is from 1993, trapped in a repeating time loop caused by her father’s old silver watch — a watch powerful enough to push her through different versions of time.

A strange man in a long coat, representing the “balance” of time, is hunting her through the years to erase the temporal error she represents. When Lucas is pulled into her fragmented timelines, he realizes he has become part of her loop—someone who wasn’t supposed to exist in her story. Mira tells him the only way to break the loop is for someone to “anchor” her... and that someone is Lucas.

He chooses her over his own future, and together they confront the agent of time. Through a painful, reality-breaking shift, they succeed: Mira becomes fixed in the present timeline, and Lucas’s life reshapes around that choice. Now both live in a version of the world where Timefall Café is a constant—and the man in the coat simply watches from afar, no longer hunting them, as time quietly accepts their rewritten story.
