Everything about that morning had been so strange to Leo, starting from when his favorite mug fell off his hand, spilling his coffee all over his kitchen. The pain of losing his favorite mug was nothing compared to him having to clean his kitchen that morning. The time was 6:57am and he had to get to work before 7:30am, but by the look of things, he would be lucky if he didn't get a query from his boss.

Leo had quickly tidied up the kitchen before putting up his yellow top and black trouser, the customary dress code for everyone working at Katy's restaurant. He had gotten there just in time to avoid the wrath of his boss descending on him. He had immediately got to work, taking orders and serving hot meals to everyone.

It was a normal day at work, some people were generous enough to leave tips while others decided to be rude, yelling insults at Leo and his colleagues. One lady in particular had been a pain in the ass, she had a blue gown on and a little baby with her. She complained about everything, first she said their services were slow, then she said something about the coffee not having enough milk. To Leo, the only reason why he had completely ignored her was because of the beautiful baby she had with her.

She had been so loud that no one heard when the two guys armed with guns walked into the restaurant.

“Everyone get on the floor right now!” One of the armed men screamed. “Put all the money in the bag, now!” The man barked at Leo who immediately did as he was told. He didn't know about his colleagues but the money weren't his and he wasn't ready to lose his life for it.

Leo was still putting the money in the bag when all of a sudden he heard a gunshot. The annoying lady in blue had been shot by the other robber. Leo didn't know what she did but she obviously must have pissed him off. He instinctively looked at the other robber who had handed him the bag and just before he could say anything, the man pulled the trigger too, then he woke up.

Leo quickly placed his hand right where he had been shot and breathe a sign of relief when he realized it was all a dream. The day was starting to get bright bright so he decided it was time for him to get ready for work.

But just as he got to his kitchen and tried drinking his coffee from his favorite mug, it fell to the floor and broke.

The time was 6:57am.
