Apologies. I'm using cu on xterm. So, I have openbsd 7.4 amd64 installed
on a ThinkPad T490 laptop. The serial device is an esp32 microcontroller
attached to a USB port on the laptop.

To connect to it via serial, I open xterm, then enter the following
command: 

cu -l cuaU0 -s 115200

which connects successfully and shows me the output of the mcu. I just
can't exit the serial console without closing the xterm window.
