❝Hello, welcome to Cafe Grind, how may I help you?❞
"Cafe Grind? Is this a coffee place or a strip club?"
❝Are you a normal person or a pervert?❞
"I just wanted to order some coffee."
❝Excuse me, but you were the one that asked if this was a strip club. Give me one good reason why I should even take your order.❞
"I got a good one. If you didn't want to take my order, you would have already hung up on me."
❝...❞
"Silence because I am correct. I'll take a regular coffee."
❝Piss off and regular coffee? The blandest thing on the menu? Seriously?❞
"Yes, very much serious. I'll be there in two minutes to pick it up."
❝Then I'm going on my lunch break right now.❞
"What? Why?"
❝I rather not come face to face with the person that believes my work place is a strip club.❞
"It's called Cafe Griiiiiiind. Why else would you call it that?"
❝We grind up coffee beans, you know, to make coffee...❞
"Oh... that actually makes sense."
❝I already told them your order and that I'm going on my lunch break to avoid you. So, this is farewell.❞
"You didn't ask me my name."
❝I don't care what your name is. I'm hanging up now.❞
"Wait. I really need to ask you something."
❝Yes?❞
"So, just to be clear here, if I give one of the chicks there a few extra dollars they won't strip for me?"
❝Piss. Off.❞
"I'm kidding! You know, you're fun to talk with. Very feisty. I like it."
❝...❞
"Feisty pants? You still there?"
❝...❞
"Fine then, I'll call again tomorrow."

Authors Note: Hey guys! I hope you like this new short story/dialogue style I'm doing! I got inspired by a recent story I read on here and wanted to see if I can create a story, but just around phone calls (kind of like my other story (Letters to Miles Cade), so! Keep eye out for uploads, vote and comment! :)
