Addiction


The rich aroma of coffee permeated the room.  Conversation was muted and sparse.  The half dozen mid-morning patrons were at peace perusing various electronic devises when the customer at the counter slammed his hand down.

“This is ridiculous!”  He said in a raised voice.

The quiet room became quieter as everyone turned to look.

“I’ve been stopping here every day since you opened.  I get the same thing, every day.  Now you tell me its unavailable.  What kind of coffee shop is this anyway?”

“Sir, we can still make it for you.  It’s just not listed on the menu anymore.”
