Irritable (and not a morning person), Tomasz tried arguing though it did not change much. Unable to curb his frustration, the Security Officer raised his voice and perhaps used a few choice words directed at the attendant, paying no mind to the others standing in line, before turning around and cursing under his breath.

He did not understand.

Had there been a wall at the ready, Tomasz would have punched it. Fortunately, however, he knew to practice steadied breaths. This was a technique that did work, sometimes. As did putting distance between himself and the coffee cart. But now he was glaring at the fountain. As if it could answer the questions he had.

On the bright side? He wasn't quite as tired anymore.

Natalie had been one of those in line behind the security officer and had seen the whole thing happen. It wasn't fair, truly, and it briefly made her worry about being able to get her own cup of coffee - which was probably irrational considered she had successfully gotten coffee there the day before. Regardless, it was stupid and she felt bad for the guy.

A minute or so after the guy had gone to stand in front of the fountain, the click-clack of Natalie's work shoes echoed as she got closer to him. She had two cups in her hand. She stood next to the man and looked at the fountain, her right hand extending a little to offer him one of the coffee cups. She wasn't looking at him just yet, knowing that prying eyes might be watching the interaction. "I can't guarantee I heard your order right, but... it'll be better than no coffee."
