The night was quiet, not a sound could be heard from the street. It was an hour before midnight. Only a few cars, truck, and the occasional sound of motorcycle zooming across along the street of the village main road. Beside the village main road sit a small coffee shop. The coffee shop was white. Inside sit a couple chair and table. Outside on the right side of the café there was four set of table and chairs. The coffee shop has a very minimalist style. Perfect for anyone to relax, read a book or a quiet place to meet with an old friend. But not until late at night, since the café closes at 12am.
Inside the café, you could see a shadow of a boy rearranging the chair and starting to mop the floor. Behind the counter, there is also another man cleaning the leftover cups and plate.
The mid-20 man had long hair, he tied his hair into a man bun to ease his work. He was skinny but not too skinny, you could see his muscle when he was rearranging the café chair and table, medium height, wore black frame plastic spectacles.
"Samad don't forget to clean up outside. After I finish cleaning the dishes, I'm going to make us some coffee, and we can chat before going home." Said the man behind the counter.
"Alright. What do you want to talk about, boss?"
"Nothing in particular, just want to know about the story that you're currently writing for the competition for young writers."
"HAHAHA, I still have no idea boss."
"Hey, no idea is also an idea."
Both of them laughed at the dumb statement made by the owner of the café.
After Samad finishes mopping the floor, he picks up the mop bucket and goes to the back of the café to store the mop. At the back, Samad pours out all the water inside the bucket that was used to clean the floor. Samad let out a sigh, he left the mop at the back of the café. Samad head straight to the right side of the café.
Samad rearranged the chairs, putting them on top of the table. Samad head to the faucet at the back. The faucet was connected to a rubber hose. Samad grab the hose and turn the faucet slowly. Water starts to come out of the hose. Samad went back to the right side of the café, he put his index finger at the front of the hose and began spraying water on the floor.
Samad turn off the faucet. He walks back to the right side of the cafe, he look at the clean floor and the neatly arranged chair and table. He looked down, took a deep breath, and let out a sigh.
"Hoi! What are you doing back there? Come here. The coffee is starting to get cold here." said the cafe's owner.
Samad stretched his neck and walked to the front of the cafe. The owner took two chairs from the right side of the cafe and put it in front of the cafe.
"Hey! I just cleaned that."
"Don't worry, I'll clean it later. You have my word as long as I don't forget about it."
Samad was at the front of the cafe. He looked at Mat.
"You're gonna stand there all night or want me to burn this chair""Burn it. Less work for me and you lose money. I see this as an absolute win" as Samad made a gesture of Professor Hulk from the movie Avenger End Game.
"Point taken. Now just sit down. Here the coffee"
Samad sat down and took his coffee. The both of them sat in quiet while sipping the coffee that Mat had made.
"How the coffee?"
"Perfect as usual."
"Nice still got it"
