Listener is sitting alone in a busy diner in a cold northern city. A stressed looking girl in a delivery uniform sits in front of them
Hey Im sitting here
Look, there's no open booths or seats at the counter. It's like twelve degrees outside and Iām tired as shit. If I don't get some decent food and some caffeine in the next few minutes I'm literally going to start throwing hands. So Iām sitting here. Unless you got a problem with that?
No? That's what I thought.
Tired sigh
The waitress hasn't been around yet? Of course not, this is a āShout for serviceā sort of joint.
Firm voice
Hey Dolores! This nerdsā been here for ten minutes without anybody taking their order! What kinda divey ass place are you running!
Back to the listener
Hey relax, it's just their system here when it gets busy like this. It's not like McDanks where they take you in the order you showed up. Trust me Iād never shout at an employee anywhere else. Besides shes he owner, her name is on the roof for crying out loud.
Sheāll be over in a second. You better have your order ready or sheāll literally throw you outside. Iāve seen her do it. I recommend the Chicken Lemon Rice soup.
Ope here she comes. Don't worry Iāll just order for you!
Waitress walks up
Hey Dolores! Weāll take two Soups and two coffees please! Also you look so pretty today!
Dolores compliments her back
Awww thanks!
Waitress leaves
There see? It's the system. Gotta understand the system. You're lucky I came by.
Waitress comes back with coffee
Yessssss Coffeeeee.
Ahhhhhh fear not my friend, you shall be spared from the throwing of hands today. God this warm cup feels so good on my hands right now. I think I'm gonna melt.
So what brings you here? Youāre obviously not a regular.
Oooh mysterious. Don't wanna spill your guts to just any old cute girl that sits at your booth?
I suppose that's fair.
Iām sort of a regular here. I work thirds so I actually just got off work. I need some coffee or I will literally fall asleep on my way home. Iām like not even joking. Plus the food is pretty good, most of the time, sometimes. So Iām around a lot.
Maybe youāve noticed me around? Eh?
Oh come on I know youāre here sometimes. Not often, but sometimes. You smiled at me once.
Oh come on.
Exaggerated Pouting
No, no, it's too late to apologize. I suppose Iāll go on and join the Fantastic four because apparently Iām the invisible woman.
Hmph
Sooooo what are you doing here?
I mean you seem like a quiet type, not shy necessarily, just quiet. Why would you hang around a busy place like this?
Ahhhh clever clever. No better place to be alone than in a crowded place where everyone has something better to do. So mysterious and spooky.
Personally I'm a bit of an extrovert. I fucking love people like honestly. Can't get enough of them. I mean sure there's some jerks out there, but hey I can be a jerk sometimes too if weāre being honest. You gotta meet people where theyāre at. You know what I'm saying?
I Just love people watching. I like learning about people's lives and interests and stuff. I don't know if youāve noticed but I love talking to strangers. Never really learned that lesson as a kid. Everyone just has so much depth to them. It's incredible, honestly.
Let's play a game while we wait, oh mysterious stranger. I tell you one thing about me you tell me one thing about you. Sound fair?
Iām a delivery driver for UPS. It's a fun job but sometimes it leaves me dead tired. Pays not bad though and weāre union so I get time off and benefits, Iām satisfied. It's a lot of fun going through my route and meeting all the people at my stops. Today I stopped at that fancy new Italian place uptown and delivered a whole crate of wine. A couple weeks before that I dropped off a bunch of parts at that biker gang clubhouse north of town. They were out in the yard burning shit. It was pretty rad.
Where do you work?
That's pretty neat. I always wondered what that's like. Do you like it? Your job I mean?
Don't shrug at me, it's a yes or no question.
Ughhhhh why are you so non commitalllllll
Tell me more! I know it probably seems boring to you but I want all the gorey details.
Oh man really? I didn't even know that you could use lasers for that. Were you able to get his order in?
Alright round two
Got any hobbies?
Personally I really like to play the trumpet. My dad taught me how and Iām not as good as him but it just feels so satisfying to play it. It's like shouting into the void but instead of whiny blubbering it's a soulful cry within the concrete wilderness mannnnn. One day I want to start a Jazz band.
So tell me what do you do in your spare time? Other than sit around all aloof when beautiful, funny , and intelligent women are obviously trying to flirt with you?
That's so cool! Can you show me a picture?
No wayyyyyyyy. How do you make the little thingies? That must take hoursssssss.
Dishes clank
Ooo the soupās here! Thanks Dolores!
Oh my god I am so hungry right now. It was so damn cold in my truck this morning I would have literally stabbed somebody for a bowl of this soup. Iām like not even joking.
This stuffs terrible for you but I don't even care.
Nomnomnom
I was making deliveries to the warehouse district down by the river this morning and it was so goddamned cold and windy. Like it's all part of the job and what have you but damn I thought I was gonna freeze to death for a bit there.
You ever had your hands get so cold that like when they get all warm again it feels like a bunch of needles are sticking into your skin? Because that was me this morning.
No? Is that just a me thing? Man, maybe I should invest in some gloves. This Polar Vortex shit is doing me in.
Big long sip of coffee
Oh yeah that hits the spot.
You gonna eat your pickle? Because I will.
See, my mom always told me the cornerstone of a relationship is one partner that likes pickles and the other that will let them eat the pickle.
laughs
Hey she and my dad have been together almost fifty years so she must be onto something. Lord knows they don't stick together for her cooking or his handyman skills. I'll tell you that much. You should see their house.
And yāknow if youāre in the market for somebody like that wellllllllllllllllll
If youād like, maybe this Saturday we go do something kinda fun?
The museum has this cool science exhibit that just came into town that I want to check out. Theyāve got this really neat thing about pleistocene terror birds. You ever seen those things? Fuckkkk theyre so cool! They were like eight foot tall and could just shred whatever tried to fight them into ham salad. And they got that cool tesla coil thing.
Orrrrrrr since youāre more introverted maybe we go someplace quiet and dark with a real nice atmosphere? I know this nice Jazz club where I play sometimes. Real low key but clean sort of place. Pretty chill, not really trendy. Great drinks. Plus I look damn fine in a little black dress, just saying.
Or we could go see the Hockey Game. I mean the team sucks balls this year. but those guys can fight! Its freaking awesome, last time somebodies tooth hit the ice at a weird angle and landed in my coffee, it was fucking metal as hell dude. And tickets are really cheap right now on account of the aforementioned suckage.
Not sure? It's not everyday a girl like me walks into your life you know. I mean who knows, next time I see you whatever weird spell you cast on me might be gone. Thereās this cute guy at work I think might be into me, but I usually don't date coworkers and honestly I dont really like his vibe. That being said, Gotta make your move while you can cutie pie.
Well alrrightttttt.
They get up
I- for no reason at all- am gonna write my phone number on this receipt here. And Iām gonna leave it here on the table. And if you happen to pick it up and text me well that can't be helped can it?
Anyhoo Iām going home, I got tomorrow off and Iām gonna sleep for like twelve hours. Itād be reallll nice to wake up to a voicemail from you.
Thanks for talking and don't worry, the soup is on me.
tick-tock loser.
