The fall of a man,kind of

Nik,s walking to his favourite Cafe,boots up,head down.Eyes open,snowcapped clouds,birds skating in unison.On his walk he notices a no exit,he thinks to himself,if i was British I could add br to exit.Not sure why his mind is working this way,he continues walk to cafe.

He walks into Cafe,he doesn't order his regular coffee,he orders a specialty coffee,he asks for it in a foreign tongue.The clerk responds in Italian.

Why is this happening,he says to himself?

Four tables and twelve chairs,and his usual seat at the bench.

He sits next to a couple speaking in a language familiar.But how?

He pulls his phone out and records a few moments of their conversation.

He goes to washroom and plays it.Their conversation isn't very pleasant.

He turns on the water and starts to cough while banging his head on wall.He plays the conversation again,same words,different language.

He walks out of bathroom.A man approaches him.

Are you okay my friend?Did you have a fall?The stranger noticing the trickle of blood on Nik,s head.

Yes,I did.

Can I get you anything my friend?

Sounding like.Anything you get, I can,my friend.

No!he goes back to bench,he looks at menu on chalkboard,deciphering it to find some meaning.

Everything becomes quiet,he needs distractions.

He pulls out his phone and types,everybody,s phone in the restaurant is beeping.

He's starting to realize that this was no ordinary fall.

And how did that stranger know of my fall?

Did he orchestrate this?And what did he mean when he said anything you get,I can.

Nik walks to strangers table.Can I join you?

Sure,have a seat.

The stranger says,you had quite a fall,I heard the bang.

You must have been seeing birds ?.You know like in cartoons.

Yeah,what else did I see?

Excuse me!

Oh,nothing.

The stranger says,you know my friend banged his head,changed him completely,starting talking in different languages,the stranger smiles.

My friend?Nik says.

You know him?The stranger replies.sounding not like a question.

Who are you?Why are you doing this to me?

Excuse me,doing what?

The stranger leaves and drives away in his green jeep.

Nik can't make any sense out of this,he leaves Cafe and goes to where he fell.

It's getting dark now and hard to see.

Nik slips on the ice where he fell before.The sky is black,he wonders how long he's been lying there.

A stranger pulls up in a green jeep and asks him.Are you okay my friend?
