The Coffee Scene
by Ananda Osel
In line, a coffee house, I'm waiting, Sunday morning.
He doesn't say anything, his mohawk nods, he claps his hands then points
with his index fingers.
"Coffee"
"What Kind?"
"Regular"
"What Size?"
"Regular"
"Short, Tall, Grande, Venti?"
"Tall"
"Single or double?"
"What?"
"One shot or two?"
"Of?"
"Espresso"
"No not espresso.  Just regular black coffee"
"Brewed"
"...Yeah"
"Don't got it."
"Really?"
"How about an Americano?"
"Alright, what's that?"
"It's just like "regular.""
"Oh."
"Espresso and Water."
"OK, yeah that sounds fine - Americano"
"What size?"
