The girl was confused, who talked like that. It was like he was from another planet. Or
space
she looked up was she was counting roses. Carefully studying him trying to decide if he was just a little off, or from another planet.
"You mean you want 5?"
"Yeah.." He adverted her gaze, felt like it was piercing his soul. "I got it from over there." And with that he pointed across the street at the cafe that was doing a 4 for 1 deal on espressos.
"I kind of thought I could just say that, but now that I've said it, it does sound a bit weird."
She looked past him, and could just make out the letter four on the sign, who the fuck does a deal like that.
She thought about this for a bit then decided he was normal. A bit weird, but nothing dangerous.
"Did you get four espressos?"
"Yeah, a good deal, but honestly thats too much espresso. Like how you expect to make a profit like that, like I know coffee the margins are high, not like flying, but it seems crazy they are still in business.
She looked at him, he now seemed weirder, but she thought maybe it was the caffeine. It was hot not the time for four espressos.
"Here you go she said, 5 roses. So thats 1 dollar sextupled."
