The Coffee shop.


Julia  was working on a  night shift at a coffee shop and  was day dreaming about a distinguish older man touching her in ways no other man could. When Sheila suddenly dropped a rack of dishes and broke her chain of thought.

 The rack of dishes fell across her feet and cut deep into her leg. Rushing over to assist Sheila with the broken dishes Julia asked "Do you need me to call the ambulance " ?. Sheila replied
 " No ! just help me get to a table and grab the first aide kit from the office ," as blood gushed out the side of Sheila's leg. Damon the night shift manager stood in shock seeing Sheila bleeding from her open womb. "I can't stand the sight of blood", Damon replied, as he  fainted in front of Margret.  ''Can someone call the ambulance we need immediate help over here'' ,Margret cried


When the paramedics arrived Sheila was unconscious as a result of  blood she had lost, and Damon still was past out . Julia, her best friend was frantic watching her life like body drenched in the pool of blood. "Help her please  , and for God sake someone give Damon some smelling salt'' , Julia cried out.  After the paramedics got Sheila stable, they placed her on a gurney and rushed her to the nearest hospital.  Damon got up on his two feet and sat back in a chair without any assistance as Margret asked  " Are you okay now ?" ,he replied  "No, I faint every time  I see the sight of blood. I must have hit my head on the floor because I feel a large knot and small cut over my eyebrow''.

Damon asked ''where is Sheila , is she dead from all the pool of blood left on the floor ?'' but  nobody responded . He  repeated  ''where is Sheila ?''.  By this time he  had started to be agitated and began to pace outside the coffee shop. He loves Sheila ,and will do anything just to go out on one date with her and now she's dead he thought.


By the time the coffee shop was closing , Sheila had called and spoken with Julia to say she was doing better and to inform her she will be there overnight just for observation.  Margret had already left for the night and Damon was still pacing up and down the side walk just when Julia hung up the phone from Sheila. Damon had pushed someone's face into the front glass of the coffee shop, both men where  punching, kicking, biting and cursing each other.


Julia ran to the front door to assist Damon as the unknown man had both hands around Damon throat, jumping on his back and gouging his eyes the man released his choke hold on Damon , then started to beat on Julia. She yelled out from the striking blow he delivered to her face. That was when Damon jumped from the ground and tackled the unknown man again, both men still scuffling over the ground as Julia looked for an object to defend Damon and herself  from this wicked man.

 Julia got a bat and hit the wicked unknown man in the back, he turned away from Damon and snatched the bat from her hand, and  started whaling on Damon with the bat Julia had found.  Screaming to the top of her lungs she said  "Stop before you kill him"Pointing the bat at her , he walked slowly over to Julia and said " Why did this man attack me as I was walking pass him on the sidewalk. It appeared that he was holding a conversation with someone , when I asked him  " Excuse me Sir did you say something to me "  He replied  "my Sheila is dead and you are  going to die too"


Call the police . "I was assaulted by you and this crazy man ".Julia stated  " It was just a misunderstanding Sir, and from nowhere Damon hit the man in the head with a brick and knocked him down to his feet. What the Hell is going on Damon? He replied "someone must die, for the only woman I love is dead'',  Julia  replied" Sheila is not dead , she will be discharged  from the hospital tommorow''.Reaching out her hand to help the unknown man  up to his feet, she seeing  Damon  through the coffee shop glass as he lifted his right hand up with a butcher knife to stab her with.

The Unknown man pushed Sheila out of the way as the  butcher knife pierced his back. He was pronounced dead on arrival to the hospital. Damon still couldn't believe that Sheila was alive as he was taken to a mental institution , as Julia laid side by side with her friend Sheila in the hospital she narrated all what happened at the coffee shop ...
