Short summary: Even if she could move her shop, she chooses to stay.

She’s gotten good at predicting what a new visitor will ask about her coffee shop, like “Why only at night?” or “But do you make any money?”, and better at predicting whether they’ll visit again. The repeat visitor needs something even if they don’t know how to request it. A drink, sure, but often they really need time and space. And a sympathetic ear.

Sometimes they think they’re taking too much, or she’s giving too much. But really she gets so much from this shop.

That’s why, even if she could move her shop, anytime, anywhere, she chooses to stay.
