Unbelievable...

Unfortunately all the clouds and rain have left the sky and it’s a rather hot and sunny day today, quite miserable if you ask me. The extreme humidity from the recent rains makes it feel as if it is hard to breathe and like your clothes are stuck to your body. As I opened the door to the establishment, a gust of cool dry air refreshed my damp face. I noticed a rather heavyset woman that walked in right behind me that was sweating quite a bit considering she had only walked about 5 feet from her car to the front door. She was also breathing quite heavily which I found rather annoying even taking her size into consideration, I still believe that she was purposely exaggerating as if it were cute or amusing which just made it all the more irritating and annoying.

As I was seated and asked what I would like to drink, I heard a black male that was sitting a few tables down from me ask his waiter for grape soda. I thought to myself of how stereotypical that was and tried my best to inconspicuously laugh. My waiter noticed what I was laughing at and she began to giggle amongst herself as well. After my waiter left I began to think myself as to what would possess the black man to ask for grape soda, as it not a common soft drink that most restaurants have and especially due to the fact that it is so stereotypical.

There isn’t many people in the restaurant aside from a few older couples. All of the older individuals are drinking coffee aside from one older lady that was drinking orange juice. The fact that most if not all older individuals drink coffee really astonishes me because it is rare that such a vast majority of the populous all like and consume a specific drink and do so on a regular basis.

As I noticed the commonality amongst the older individuals in the restaurant, two women in their early to mid-thirties entered with two children about five years of age. I assuming the women were each a mother to one of the two children that entered. Overall they seemed to be of the lower class of society as they were all wearing clothes that could be considered pajamas. Neither of the women had their hair and it looked like they had both just awakened and crawled out of bed straight to a restaurant. Their children were also very dirty as both of their faces were dried with food and saliva with mucus dripping down their faces. In disgust, I wondered to myself as to how they could be allowed in a public place, much less a restaurant. The children we very misbehaved and loud as they kept running around and going under a nearby table that they were seated next to. I continued to watch the children in disbelief as they continued to misbehave. Other people began to notice the disruptive children and began to watch in disbelief and disgust as well. Neither of the mothers scolded or instructed their child to behave, but instead it seemed as though they were ignoring them as they most likely did not care what their children were doing as long as they were not bothering them. The children then began to collect the eating utensils that were placed on top of the table they were playing under and began to engage in an activity that seemed like “swords”. They collected two butter knives each, placed one in each hand and began to bang them together. Their activities got louder as they hit the knives together and began to attract more attention from nearby customers. Still, the two mothers paid no attention to their children. Finally, the waiter arrived with their order and the mothers then called their children to their table, leaving a mess underneath the table they were playing under. Still the two mothers showed no care at all, simply leaving the mess that was left by their children.
