"Excuse me can I help you sir?", She asked the man from behind the counter.
"Sure but I don't believe I can explain properly. ", he said behind a smile that made her a doubter.

She sighed as she knew it'd be a long hour at his service.
If only she could stay at home. Oh how all the trouble she could miss.

"It's fine. ", she replied though her tone became shorter.
The man recoiled in respond and dug his gaze into the store border.

"Lovely wallpaper. ", he said trying to regain his respect.
"Thanks it's really old. ", she said like it was a wreck.

"Um, so yes I need something small but not little. Big but not large. ", the man sputtered out.
"So you need what's impossible and what I can not offer?", she said with a pout.

The man took one look at her as he nibbled on his glasses.
Straightening his tie as his eyes made several passes.

"No. ", the man said simply as he curtly escaped.
"Wow. ",the girl said staring at the door that was now agape.

The doorway was empty and she was left alone.
It wasn't until then that her thoughts made themselves known.

For she understood now that though the man seemed a tad strange.
There was nothing about the man's order that she could change.

People want what they want as the beg and they plead.
But take into account what these people really need.

You could help anyone if you take the chance to listen.
Watch the face first before you choose to drive your fist in.
