"Another one?!"
crash *ceiling collapses*
"RUN! It's not safe here."
huff huff *heavy breathing*
crash *something falls*
boom *café is demolished completely*
huff huff
"That was close."
"Are you alright?"
"I'm should be fine but that poor café, it was just opened some time ago."
"Agreed. Hold on, only this café was destroyed? Was the building too poorly made?"
*silence*
"Hmm? Are you seriously ok? Your complexion doesn't look too good."
"Yeah I'm alright. It's just that I have a creeping feeling that something isn't right."
"Are you still stuck on that topic earlier?"
"Well yeah. Hold on. Look over there isn't that our class teacher?"
"Yeah it is. But why is he out of school right now? Do you think he took a day off as well?"
"Do you think it is a coincidence that he is absent today like us?"
"I mean isn't that possible?"
"It is indeed possible. And you, of all people waking up late on the same day as me can be considered a coincidence too, right?"
"Yeah of course. It is a pretty pleasant coincidence; don't you think so?" *wink*
"Yes and the fact that our class teacher is absent on the same day as us. Pretty cool coincidence no?"
"Yeah?" *confused*
"What else can be considered a coincidence? That waiter interrupting me when I was about to explain what I heard in the morning?"
"Maybe he just wanted to get his job done?"
"Sure let's assume that was what he was doing. Then what about a sudden earthquake when I was about to explain that sound. I suppose that can be considered coincidence too?"
"We can't control nature you know that as well."
"Of course I know that as well. What do you think of me as? An idiot?"
"No that's not what I'm trying to say. Don't be mad hon. You know that's not what I meant."
"Who is your hon?" *glare*
"Oops! It was a slip of tongue. My bad."
"Hmph. So your meaning is that everything that happened so far is a coincidence?"
"Isn't that kind of obvious?"
"1 or 2 coincidences can be considered as coincidence but can you say that all these happenings are due to 'coincidence' as well? Think about it, since when has so many coincidences happened one after another without someone else interfering in it?"
