Second Chance Cafe
There it was, just sitting there. Looking deceivingly innocuous and innocent. He should have known better than to give in to his curiosity. But the distinguished looking little black book beckoned to him. Calling to him, sitting pretty on the stained yellowing Formica cafe counter, refusing to be ignored. Stopping dead in his tracks, he took a quick glance around. No one was paying him or the little black book any attention. Without sparing another thought to the other patrons, he grabbed the book in a quick swipe and hid it under the raincoat slung over his arm. He had no idea why he would give in to an impulse to steal someone else's property. It was out of character and against his usually mundane existence.
