"So," Josh says " what brought you here?" Ummm "My need for coffee!" I lie. Josh laughs "No I mean to this coffee shop, there's about a dozen others in town. Why this one?" How do I answer this? Um hey Josh I've known you for ten minutes and I'm going to tell you how sucky my life is and how this one reminds me of home and how after I tell you this you're going to get freaked out and I'm taking too long to answer and " Uh I really like the sign, and it looked quiet I guess." Josh laughs again " Yeah, not many people come here, I'm the only regular they have." I don't know what to say to that. It's getting quiet. " So what's your favorite band." He asks out of the blue. This is an easy one. "Twenty øne piløts." I say. "Do you know the band members?" He asks. What a weird question... "Um no I don't pay attention to the artists, I just listen to the music." As soon as I say it Josh gets this look on his face, Im not sure how to describe it maybe astonishment I don't know. We talk for a while longer about bands and coffee. "Do you need a ride home?" He asks. I barely know him but it's cold outside... "Please, that would be great."
