Scare

Her heart almost melted seeing the cute kitten looking at her with her watery eyes.

Smilingly she just kept looking at the cutie pie not realizing how the man kept staring at her without interval. Suddenly she looked up at the man to see him reverting his gaze at the menu.

But she couldn't see his face properly at all as his hat was too low on his face. Finding it bad staring at someone unknown like this she lowered her gaze to look at the menu deciding what to order.

Suddenly she heard a gruff but friendly voice calling out to her from the nearby table,

"Salut, comment ca va??

Kate raised her eyebrows in amused way hearing the stranger speak in french, she replied back "ca va bien".

Then she added,"Sorry mister but I am not that comfortable in French, do u understand English??"

Laughing amusedly he said,"Actually I was just trying to impress you. I myself don't know french that well too."

Smiling politely at his remark Kate continued to see the menu and at last decided to order one spicy cheese burger, french fries and diet coke. Even after just having lunch some 20 mins ago Kate felt hungry as she couldn't say no to tasty food at all. Just when she reached for her purse to pull out the money.

She got startled by a sound of something metallic falling on the tiles of the cafe. Kate looked behind to see the stranger getting up from the floor with a spoon.

"Just a spoon fell from my hand. Sorry to startle you I am pretty clumsy."

"No worries, it can happen with anyone." But even after saying that she wasn't sure if a little spoon can make that much of a sound. But she tended to ignore it.

Getting up she went to the counter to order to see a young boy sitting there looking a little frightened.

"Are you alright?",she asked in worry.

That boy just nodded clumsily. Reassured she placed her order and paid.

But a surprising thing happened while giving change the boy surreptitiously slipped a slip of paper with some writing on it with a pale look. Before she could ask him what was all this about he urgently gestured her towards the washroom and then the note.

Not understanding what he wanted, still she decided to cooperate with him.

After glancing back to see the strange man looking at them with the same smile, but which then didn't seem so kind. Returning his smile, she excused herself to go to the washroom with the note tightly clasped in her hands.

After reaching the confines of the washroom she opened the note to read.

And her face turned pale in fright.
