The man sighs, "You really don't have to." he mumbled.
"No! No...I insist, please? Can I at least buy you another coffee, maybe even another shirt?" Roda offered "Fine! Only because you're being so dramatic about this." He exclaimed. A big smile formed on Roda's face "Thank you!"
They approached the cashier "So what do you want to order...uh—sir?" Roda asked politely
"you can call me Erwin."
"Okay—Erwin!" Roda said while giving a big grin. "So what do you want to order?" They added. "A regular mocha, please." Erwin replied. "Okay that will be 3.45$" the cashier said. Roda handed the cashier the money and waited in line for the coffee and headed out.
"Thanks" Erwin said as the sunlight fell on Erwin's clear skin. "It's the least I could do, do you want a new shirt too?" Roda asked. "No it's fine, I can just wash the shirt, thanks." He replied. "Umm—I guess this is goodbye?" Erwin added. "I'm not leaving without your number dude." Roda said confidently.
"Alright" Erwin replied with a smirk on his face. He took Roda's phone and wrote his number there.
Who knew something so simple could be a beginning of something big?
