A man came into the shop today, ordered, ate, and left. A while later, he came back and asked if we'd seen his key, which he'd apparently lost. No one had seen his key.

He left and after some time, i suppose spent retracing his steps again, he came back one more time and asked again if we found his key. I told him that we did not find it and having been the one to clean the table he'd used, i was certain that there was no key there.

I recalled that he was holding his key while talking on the phone when he came into the shop and wondered to myself if he'd accidentally kept his key with his phone. For some reason, i was quite certain that he had his key on him still.

By then he was really flustered and anxiously checked the bag he was holding again. As he turned around, i almost burst out laughing as i caught the silver tip of his key jutting out of his back pocket! Haha! :)

I told him and he had one of those sudden realisation moments. Haha! So blur :) He seemed too relieved to show any embarrassment, but i think he must have felt really embarrassed later on. Haha :)
