Exercise 1

As the gloomy night was coming to a close, we stubbled across a lit up diner perfect for an end to our date. This particular diner was the only thing open within 7 blocks of the theatre, which baffled us. The neon lights lit up the surrounding darkness of the usually lively city however on this particular night the streets seemed surprisingly quiet. As the doorbell rang when we walked through the door it seemed as if the place was deserted, however my eyes caught the top of another mans hat sitting in the corner by his lonesome. Although physically he was alone I felt as if the man was off in his own world oblivious to his surroundings, he was just drifting away with his thoughts. Our entrance at such an obscure time and place did not make the man flinch one bit, as he was preoccupied with himself.

  We found a seat close to the bar waiting for our service, when an older man came out in the classical white uniform to greet us with a welcoming yet eager smile (I think the man has been waiting for some company).  My date and I made our order and were unseeingly having a great conversation with the owner of the diner. His aged jokes and interesting tales kept the night going, (thankfully my date wasn’t getting bored). Even with our loud laughter and the clutter of our cutlery, the man in the hat remained silent and unmoved.
