The door to the café opened and Sam entered. His long wavy hair swept into the air as the door closed behind him. He held two books in the left hand and a cell phone in the right, his eyes staring at the phone. A group of people chatted about to the left of him, engaged with a growing argument. Their anger grew and yet Sam paid them no mind as he walked to the cashier. His eyes removed themselves from the flatted screen and greeted a pair of bright blue eyes. A smile spawned across Sam's face and he began to speak. “Howdy! How are you this fine morning?” The cashier smiled back, “I am good, How are you stranger?” she replied. “You know how it is Kate, just riding that wave of probability. Seeing where it takes me and which choice will be placed into my hands.” He said. “Well, Let's start you off with a drink and can you tell your friends to claim it down over there. Don't want to bring out the gun again and threaten them.” She said winking at him. “I will have them relaxed by the time you bring that vanilla mocha” Sam moved away from Kate and headed toward the group. They stared at him as he approached, completely quiet and hesitant.
“Did she threaten to bring out the gun again?” One of them asked, his eyes filled with worry. “Yes, Jeff she did. So do me favor and relax, you are all in a public space. What is the argument about anyway?” Sam replied. Jeff glared at Kate before looking back at Sam, “Well Isaac over here believes the waves of probability have changed due to our direct infliction of causality. I simply explained to him how it is wrong and that the change in causality is not a direct effect on the waves of probability.” Jeff said, Lifting up his glasses in a smug expression. “That's completely impossible as the waves of probability are affected by the causal nature of the universe.” Isaac replied. Sam sighed and looked at Kate who had his drink. “This is going to be a long day.” Sam said, accepting the drink. “Well make it short” Kate replied
