He walked now what slowly was becoming routine for him

The tree's had began their rite of Spring budding

The warm breeze blew through the branches

Filling the air with their fragrance

He spotted the cafe just on the horizon

He could almost smell those coffee beans grinding

The bell on the door rang as he opened it

The counter-help just looked up and nodded at him

He walked to the counter to place his order

He  then walked to a table to wait for his order to be made

One caramel machiatto with extra whip

He rose and walked to the counter

Excuse me we ordered the same one

Said a faint voice from behind him

Oh my mistake

Please take this one

I will wait for them to make mine

She reached for her cup

May  I have a poppy seed bagel

Yes some strawberry creamcheese  would be great

He watched as she took a table beside him

One caramel machiattio with extra whip

He rose to walk to the counter and get his order

May I join you

Yes you may

He sat and took a sip from his cup

Do you work near here

Yes about three blocks

I live about three blocks from here

I work from my home

Found this cafe on a morning stroll

From the first cup I was hooked

I heard about this cafe from a co-worker

She usually drops in on her lunch hour

Was it the same girl

He asked himself

Looking down at his watch

Almost time for her lunch break

He stands to excuse himself

No reason to rush off

Don't you want to meet her

I simply must leave now

The bell rings as the door opens

Waving her over

Keeping my back to her

I turned away as she approached

Walking briskly towards the door

The bell rang as I exited

I should turn and go back

The bell rang as I entered
