When Asking Feels Like Too Much
You order at a café.
The person behind the counter does not understand you.
You repeat the order, but they still reach for something else.
People are waiting behind you.
You hear your own voice becoming quieter.
You decide not to explain again and accept what they give you, answering “Ok, yes”.
On the way home, this moment stays with you.
Your thoughts are going round in circles.
Maybe asking twice really is too much.
