Christy's - Fine Tea and Delicious Pastries

[ioha]

Lord, I am still tired as hell...
The ringing bell and the following noise took Joshua back to reality. He had made his way to Christy's before beginning today's work.
As he came in, he found Captain Scott with a little bruise on the forehead, sitting in front of what seemed to be the rest of a glass table. To his left and right, papers and holo-disks were scattered on the floor, and Christy was clearly enraged.

"Erm... morning, Christy. And good morning Captain Scott! What happened here?"

Captain Scott seemed more startled about the fact that Joshua spoke to him than about the mess surrounding him.

"Ah, Sergeant Cooper! Excellent timing!" Scott rubbed his hand against his forehead, picked the holo-disks and papers from the floor, stood up and came over to Joshua.

"Oh, you have some serious bags under your eyes... anyways, I'll be right back! Would you clean that mess here for me? Thank you, very glad you'll do it! Erm, goodbye Christy!"

Before Joshua could say a word, Captain Scott had rushed outside.

"Now, will you clean it up already? I have customers to attend! Here you go."
Christy handed Joshua a broom and a bucket for the shards and went back to the counter.

Somehow, this day really isn't starting the way I wanted it to... Joshua thought.
