A week later...

“The coffee is nice and hot. The cake is yummy.”

“I am glad you like it.”

“Yes, it is very cosy and warm here. The flowers are so pretty, and look at those little noisy birds!”

“Do you go to cafes often?”

“I used to…”

“Right.”

A very comfortable silence as both drink their coffee. It is very peaceful and feels very safe.

“Stranger, would you like to have another coffee with me?”

“Um…sure. But can you give me a minute? I have to go somewhere. I’ll be right back.”

“OK.”

“See you then. Goodbye.”

“Will you be back?”

“Goodbye.”

..leaving behind someone very confused and bewildered.

So, it is back into the little dark corner now.
