Milly's view:

After a long and stressfull day in my work I finally take a look at the big watch, which hangs above the entrance door from the coffee. It's 2:50pm.
Finally only 10 minutes to go!
Today it was even more exhausting because my boss called me in the backoffice, because he wanted to know, why I keep the coffee 10 minutes longer open, than at our normally closing time.
,,Mr. Brown, I have a clear explanation for this. Listen, I really wanted to close it on our normal time, but 1 minute befor I could close it a customer storms in and asked very nicely, if he can have a short and fast drink. See, I couldn't let him stay thirsty.¨, I explained to him.
,,Well....you're right, but if this comes up once again I need to warn or even fire you! I hope this won't happen again Mrs. Jenkins!¨,he answered with a stern and deep look.
,,Of course not...I promise! Thanks Mr. Brown! Have a nice day!¨, I said and left the backoffice.

As my thoughts came back to reality I wanted to put off my apron and finally end my work here, so that I can join the band again, but i that moment the door swings up again and a middle aged man with a black hood and sun glasses entered the coffee. Strange! It's winter! Why he wears sunglasses in this season of the year? But I know this man....yeah he looks so familiar ...Who the hell are you?!
I take a look to my fellow workers Sarah and Tim, but all 2 of them are so busy with the work, that I have to take over this guest and therefore cannot finish my work until 5 minutes later. I take a deep sigh and start to ask the guest:

MJ: So, what you want to drink?
GB: Just a coke, please!
MJ: Ok...thank you!

I lower my gaze, while searching for a glass. After I found one, I put it plus a bottle of Coke, infront of him on the counter.
MJ: There you go!
GB: Thx!
MJ: Can I ask you a question?
GB: Of course!
MJ: You look so familiar to me. Do we know each other?
The stranger takes of his sunglasses and a very beautiful face appears in the light, which I know well.
GB: I think that we know each other, young lady.
MJ: OMG Guy! What the hell are you doing in here? And where are the other boys?
GB: Please stay quiet! If they recognise me in here I'm screwed! I've been coming here because we both gonna have fun together.
After sayying this he takes a huge sip of his coke.
Suddenly he places 3 pounds on the counter.
GB: There you go, keep the change! You're finished in 5 minutes right?
MJ: Well yes, I just wait that you end your drink and than I'm finished! Finally!
GB: Good, ok I'm waiting at the next corner, playing on my phone. Just to let you know.
MJ: I'll be there.
He nods and than put on his sunglasses once again, while heading out of the coffee, without another word.
I look for as somebod clatches my back. It was Sarah
S: You should be out here since 2 minutes, girl.
MJ: I know, I just served the Coke for the man and now I'm away.
S: I see. Oh and just by the way Milly.....I know who you served the drink. Guy Berryman, right?
MJ: Maybe
I shrug my shoulders with a weird face expression, grabbing my bag and take off my apron.
I waved good bye to everybody and than I'm finally heading out of my working place.

By the next corner I already saw Guy with his phone in his hand. As I came closer he already put it away and smiled at me.
,,Are you ready to have some fun?¨, he asks.
,,Of course, unless I don't know what we're gonna do.¨, I answered.
,,You'll see sooner than you think. Uhm....short question....Do ya have a driving lisence?¨, he questions.
,,Yes....Of course!¨
,,Good ......Than we can have some fun today.¨,he markes.
,,Where are we going ?¨,I disclose.
,,First to the Bakery.¨Guy explaines.
Than we finally start walking down the street to the music studio. Not 10 minutes later we arrive there and Guy locks the garage.
I stop him with the words:,, Wait, what are you doing? I thought we are joining the boys?¨
,,Not today, Chris agreed. Today it's just you and me, lady!¨
I smile all over my face and than he openes the garage completely.
A old but beautiful car comes to light and Guy starts introducing it: May I introduce? A Porsche 911S from the year 1967! It's my whole pride! You may know that I love cars but this baby is not like the others! I love this car and made wonderfull adventures with it. So, what do ya say? Wanna drive out of the capital a bit?
I couldn't say a word. This is amazing! Guy want me to drive around with him in his favourite car! This has to be a dream! But it isn't, it's reality and that's what makes this moment even more amazing!
,,Of course I want! Omg!
He held the left door open for me, so I can sit down, than he goes around the car and starts the engine.
A muffled engine noise sounds and then he directs the car out onto the road.
GB: Wanna hear some music?
MJ: Sure!
GB: Just click the PLAY-Button.
I'm doing this and immediately a song from Marvin Gaye finds my ear and with that rythmn, we drive out of London.
