I accidentally sat at the wrong table at a restaurant.
I didn’t realize until the man sitting across from me said,
“You’re early.”
I looked around.
Wrong table.
Wrong man.
I apologized and started getting up.
He laughed and said,
“Wait. Sit down for a minute.”
I told him I was meeting a friend.
He said,
“So am I.”
I looked at the empty chair across from him.
He had been waiting for someone who was already 40 minutes late.
For some reason, I sat back down.
