“Hooray”

Just before I entered the bank I saw a man parking his car. There wasn’t anything significant about him, but I did notice him. I stood on line feeling hot and I was sweating. It was cool in the bank, but after being out in the sweltering heat, I was feeling the after effects of it. I didn’t mind that I was the eight, person on line, because I was enjoying the cool air. The man who was parking his car came and stood in front of me, then he said, “I was standing here before.”
I said, “okay.”
He turned around to face me, “I am speaking the truth. I was standing here.”
I looked at him seriously and said, “and I said, okay.”
“You don’t sound too pleased.”
“What do you want me to do? Jump up and say hooray?”
