The man that looks through the window

A man always sat at the same table and looked out the window. Every time I went to
my workplace, I was walking along the sidewalk of the bar and saw him sitting at the
same table, just looking out the window. His expression was between sad and worried.
That started to call my attention, because I was living near the bar so one day I took
the decision to ask him about what he did there every day.

I walked into the bar and sat right next to his table and I stared him ( He didn’t realized
that I sat next to him). I saw him for a few minutes and when I was going to ask him, I
realized that he had a white cane in his right hand. ‘’ Oh god, he’s blind ’’, I thought.

‘’Excuse me man, I would like to ask something about you because I always see you
here, at the same table but I’ve never seen you eat or drink something. You’re just
looking out the window. What are you doing here every day? ‘’

‘’Oh, Hi! My name is Travis. I like to sit here and hear people talking about their life
because that inspires me to write stories. Sometimes I write poems too. I’m writer.’’

‘’ I’m sorry about this but you kept my attention. I frequently see you here and I wanted
to ask it.’’

The men continued talking for a long time and became friends.
