First Date
It’s often kind of tragic, working at Cafe Kopi. So many doomed 1st date couples within earshot. The couple next to me:
She: “That shop was the only place I could go to feel better. So many times I would walk to the counter, and the person would ask me, because she recognized me, how I was doing. I’d say, ‘So much better, now that I’m here.’”
He, a minute later: “You know I appreciate stories about life for what they are. But I can’t really, like, remember lots of little details about my life and things. Do you like to grill?”
She: “Like, food?”

How evil of you to eavesdrop like that! What kind of shop was it that she liked?
