A short story 1

 

They were waiting for the sunset in front of their favorite pub. Even though in the pub, drinks were on the house before 7 pm, they didn’t take any drinks, because they were nervous. At night, they were going to beat up their boss. The boss always said, “Don’t get fresh with me!”

 

At that time, the pub was having a special party because that day was the anniversary of the pub, so drinks were on the house all the time. Suddenly one of guys started drinking because he wanted to calm down, but he wasn’t tolerant to alcohol. He became drunk soon and started to call his mum. Unfortunately, she was busy at that time, she couldn’t take his call.

 

He started to cry like a baby. Actually he didn’t want to join this plan, but he had become the head by accident. All he wanted to do was just one thing, eating his comfort food, a blueberry yogurt ice cream of Carrefour. He told the other guys, Bob and Kazuki.

“I must eat a tub of ice cream! Can you wait for me just 10 minutes?”

 

After checking the two faces, he disappeared in the sunset. No, it was the direction of Carrefour.
Kazuki asked to Bob,

“Do you think the klutz will come back?”

“You bet he won’t!”, answered Bob.

“OK. Let’s get in the pub. Enjoy the party!”

“Yes. He sobered me up. Let’s start again!”
