Early morning in the café. At the same minute every day, a neat man in a blue shirt comes in and walks to the table by the window. Klara nods at him and whispers. His usual order is tea without sugar, one bread roll and the bill. You copy that order exactly; coffee is mentioned only while asking about the menu prices.
