Conversation While Waiting for a Friend
Deb is waiting for a friend at an Italian restaurant on the Lower East Side. She sits at the bar, sipping on a glass of wine. A Random Woman sits next to her.
Random Woman places a napkin on top of her wine glass and walks away. A moment later, she taps Deb on her shoulder.
Random Woman: Are you going to be sitting here for a bit? Do you mind watching my drink?
Deb: Sure, not a problem.
Random Woman walks away. A moment later, she comes running back.
Random Woman: Please don’t ruffie it, okay?
Deb: Um. Okay. I’ll try not to.
Random Woman looks uneasy with Deb’s response. She nervously looks at the Bartender.
French Bartender: I vill watch ze drink for vou.
Random Woman: Thank you so much. You’re a lifesaver.
Deb: Um.
