Chapter 2

He finally stands before my counter

Hello he says

Uhm hi. How may I help you. We have lots of things here. Do you want a coffee or anything else. Shit I am rambling already.

He smiles as if he is amused. I will take a coffee please. Black with a spoon of surger.

As I prepare his coffee I wonder who the hell takes coffee like this. I mean it just ain't normal

I take my coffee that way and i  would like to think I am normal he suddenly says from behind me.

Ohhhh shit I must have said that aloud. Sorry i say sheepishly.

He just grins at me and damn look at that teeth. I notice he is saying something and I try to focus.

... Will be how much?

What? I ask. He just smiles and asks for his bill.

He pays and I watch him walk out because I have to admit even his walk looks so sexy

Well he was definitely something my co-worker Jane says. I guess I wasn't really paying much attention to him. Was he handsome I ask nonchalantly. Hmmhmm she says with a knowing glint I definitely don't like.

For the rest of my shift I keep thinking about mystery man and I have to say it was a great way of making time

pass.

After being dropped at the bus station I walk the rest of the way home. While walking home my mind goes to my family and I think about how much I miss them. My parents are socialites who are always climbing the social ladder. I was always expected to follow in their steps and I was already engaged to a rich guy that fit their description perfectly. But few days to the wedding I ran away from home and ever since then my parents have never forgiven me for the shame they said it brought.

Shaking off those thoughts I walk up of the stairs of my building and put in the key to my apartment.
