They found a quiet little corner by the counter and Clint started digging into his cream-crunch topping with pleasure. The majority people around them were too busy with laptops or mobiles to pay attention to them, so there was no reason not to take a short break.

When he got his own phone out to check for answers on the e-mails from before, his face darkened at once and he hurried to put it back and went back to try and enjoy simple pleasures, without worrying about the same everyday bullshit again. Well, that had happened faster than expected after all.
