It's
hot. SOOO hot. I'm sweating. I stare madly over my hot cup of tea
and growl as my children walk into the temp office.
2)Inside
the launderette
I
sit in the heat, watching the washing spin in soapy bubbles. It's
very hot. The man sitting outside the launderette is talking to two
beautiful African women. He seems to be enjoying the heat. He is
laughing and talking loudly. I sit and sweat and look out the window.
I catch the eye of the woman standing on the left. She momentarily
acknowledges me, or did I imagine that? When I double-check check
she's gone, the man looks up at me as I struggle past carrying two
heavy bags of laundry. Boy, it's hot today.
3)Inside
Pret
I'm
hot and thirsty. I walk into Pret and take a quick look at the menu;
Ice coffee is just what I think to myself. I approach the counter;
there's a beige-coloured cap. Sweat is dripping down his forehead.
I ask the man behind the counter for an Iced Latte. "I'm really
sorry, but we're out of ice", he explains. How, I think to
myself, how can you be out of ice? He answers the question for me,
"We've had a lot of customers after Iced coffee today, sorry";
like that, the mystery is over. It's not surprising, really; it's
so damn hot.
