No one's POV

A couple years after highschool ended, Jake's group kind of split apart. Jake spent most of his time with the music club, and Drew, Liam, and Henry had all just been doing their own things in life

Henry ended up getting a job at a coffee shop. It wasn't the most pristine or high paying jobs out there, bit it was simple and good enough for him. It wasn't always those most fun as some of the customers really sucked. But that's how things just were

"I asked for EXTRA foam!!"

"I'm sorry, Ma'am, but if I gave you any more foam in your drink than required, it would be spilling out everywhere"

The lady at the counter holding her drink was absolutely infuriated. Henry had dealt with his fair share of angry customers before, so he wasn't all too bothered by this one

"Lady, leave the guy alone." One of Henry's coworkers, Caleb, said as he walked over. "Let's all be honest. If he put extra foam like you wanted, you'd still be angry about something. So how about you take your drink, and leave." With that, the angry customer huffed, and stormed away

Yes, this job certainly had it's ups and downs. But Henry got used to it. Having angry customers was a part of any job

"Thanks.." Henry smiled, looking at his coworker. "Hey man, no problem" Caleb said as he began to untie his apron. "I gotta head out cause I'm off now, you good here without me for a while?"

"Oh, shut it" Henry said "I can handle myself. I'm not in highschool anymore"

"I'm just sayin'" Caleb said. He waved as he walked away, and Henry looked around the cafe. There were a couple people sitting around, either already having ordered or still figuring out what to order. Heck, some actually weren't getting anything and we're just there for something like a bit of light reading

Henry's attention was sparked back after he heard the bell ring, the doors to the cafe opening. When he looked up, Henry saw a man in a business suit walk in. He had a cellphone in his hand, which he was looking at, aswell as a bookbag sling over his shoulder. Once the man was seated, Henry walked over with a menu

"Good evening, sir. How may I-"

"Yes, I have a business meeting I have to be at in an hour. So what's your quickest made drink and snack food?"

"Uh..." Henry could tell this man clearly thought highly of himself. He was not the type of person to be taken lightly

"Well sir, our...snacks are premade..." Henry said as he handed the man the menu. "As for the drinks, I...guess the quickest one is a regular coffee...?"

The man nodded, barley reading over the menu. "I'll take a regular coffee and a chocolate chip muffin."

Henry nodded, taking the menu back and heading back behind the counter ad the man took a newspaper from his bookbag and unfolded it to read it

---

Every time Henry looked over at the man whilst he was preparing his order, he could tell he was getting more and more impatient and it was making him more and more nervous. So nervous in fact he actually grabbed the wrong muffin type
