It was a Saturday morning. It wasn't a special Saturday morning though. Just one of those regular "Hmm I feel like getting star bucks," Saturday mornings. Alexio had just finished a two mile jog to keep his body in tip top shape and felt parched. He jogged by a near by Starbucks. There wasn't anything there he was truly interested in but he wasn't really the one to argue. He was thirsty as hell! He pulled out his wallet and looked at the menu to see what he would order. Words like "cappuccino" and "macchiato" confused him to some extent. He never even heard of these drinks back in Brazil. Nor did he drink that much coffee in New York. There he stood in a stare. He really was clueless as hell...

-(Earlier today, This Morning)10:05-
Alexio was joggling at a moderate pace from his own home. His breathing was quiet and was trying not to make too much noise as he ran. Huff. Puff. Well he ended up making noise anyways. He ran along the streets and all over the city. Nothing really much else to do. He didn't have any friends or what not. He hadn't made any yet since he doesn't really know anyone in the city but his own Uncle. Then again, it was his fault for not making the effort to make friends.
Alexio was actually hoping this morning to run into someone that might end up being his friend. Alexio didn't have any standards for friends really. He really just wanted to meet someone in the city he lives in and hopefully befriend them. That's partly why he started to run today. The other part was really just to stay in shape. But meeting a cute girl or a "bro" to hang out with could certainly work in Alexio's book. So he continued his jog and eventually arrived in a district with many stores and realized there had to be place for him to drink.
=Flash Back Over=
=Play=
Alexio really couldn't think of anything to order. He stood in line noticing the line was quite long. So maybe he would have enough time to get something for himself by the time he got to the front. Thats what he hoped at least. He didn't want to embarrass himself and hold a whole entire line up. He was actually more curious on how this place was so crowded. Did that many people live off caffeine? He then sighed realizing that many Americans have caffeine as a life source. He soon learned that most residents of the U.S. drink coffee. And most of that coffee is from Starbucks. So at that point, Alexio had his first realization.
He eventually gave up and turned around to ask the person what he should order..and that person was...
