Pressed against the wall

My eyes widened in shock as Mrs Julie started to smile at me and walk towards me, the police man that was sitting opposite me, turned around to see who was talking and I used the opportunity to wave at her to keep quiet...

 She got the message quickly.

"Oh I'm sorry, I thought it was someone I know." She said giving me a nod and turning to the door, she left the cafe.

"I have one of those faces too, when people see me they think it's someone they know before they recognize I'm not them." He said laughing and I joined along to laugh with him.

At that very moment I envied his daughter, Rachael. I would kill to be in her position. 

 If not for the ghastly crime I had committed, I would have actually been friends with this man, he gave off a vibe that I liked, strong father figure.
