Ashley lives a simple life. She eats, she sleeps, she works. On the path to becoming a manager, she doesn't spare much time for anything else.

Then she bumps into Nira, one of the regulars she's had a crush on for years, for the first time in a while.

Nira isn't in a good place. She needs a friend.

Ashley decides that putting the crush aside is a no-brainer. She'll be the friend Nira needs, even if it ends up giving Nira's other friends the wrong idea.

There are definitely worse things than people assuming they're dating.
