This is beautiful. I am glad you decided to go to the cafe and that they were opened. The coffee cafe does look good in the picture. It's a place to visit, and I am not surprised it was that crowded.
Cats have always been with those side eyes that let's you know they are judging you, lol. It is like they can see deep into one's soul, and I believe that's exactly what Murphy did. He looked and saw how amazing you are, and that's why he became comfortable around you. Well done.
