#Spotted From a Cafe in Aotearoa New Zealand:
Two men (20s? Brothers?) are tucking into hearty breakfasts.
One says to the other: "Did I tell ya I'm thinkin' of gettin' married."
The other looks aghast: "Why?!"
"Why not?"
"Cos Aunt Belinda's gonna come!"
A long contemplative silence ensues.
A server stops at a regular's table.
He's gripping an espresso cup, staring into space.
She says: "Need another one?"
There's a long, blank faced pause and then he gives her a grateful look. "YES! Thank you. Yes. Another one. Yes. Thank you so much."
Sometimes it's the small things...
A young human (8?) and Mum are sitting across from each other, playing cards.
Young Human's wearing a piratical grin.
He's totally winning this hand.
He's DEFINITELY winning.
It's in the bag!
Suddenly he howls, "Hey! How'd you do that?!"
Mum gives him a small, quiet smile.
A couple (70s?) are idly enjoying their breakfasts at a corner table.
He's wearing a golfing hat, a polo shirt and sensible shorts.
She's in a bright floral dress and sneakers.
Open books in front of each them.
Fresh coffees just delivered to their table.
On a big grassy hill that's visible from a cafe table a line of sheep are walking along a well-trodden track, creating the world's woolliest traffic jam for a couple of trampers.
Blue sky arching overhead.
Bleats and baas filtering down into the valley on a pleasant spring breeze.
