Contract Siroco Cafeteria was located in a little street in the suburbs of the city. When Sara arrived, there were only two couples taking coffee and a lonely man in the bar. She sat as far from them as she could. Roberto hadn’t arrived yet and when the waiter arrived to ask her what she wanted, she had to tell him that she was waiting for someone and would order later. Sara took out the phone from her purse and started to check the time every so often. The worst thing that could happen to a punctual person was to hang out with someone who wasn’t timely. To kill time, she played a game on her Smartphone and waited. Roberto arrived almost ten minutes later and he was panting. He sat in front of her and apologized for the delay. “Some costumers arrived when we were about to close and my father didn’t let me go” he explained. Sara didn’t say anything and called the waiter with a gesture. He came and took note of their order: a Nestea for her and a Redbull for him. “So— do you work?”
