HEY! Watch Where You're Going!

I walked slowly toward the door while casually glancing down at my watch. I suddenly felt someone or something bump into me. I didn't get the chance to see if it was a man or a woman at first because all I felt was a bump, then I heard the thud. I looked own at the ground and at my feet was the most stunningly beautiful woman I had ever seen. I almost didn't know how to act. I just stood there, staring. When our eyes finally locked, she gave me the most displeasing glance. "Well, aren't you going to help me up?" She asked with a hint of annoyance in her voice.I extended my hand to her. "I'm terribly sorry. I didn't see you." She took my hand and rose to her feet. The whole coffee shop grew quiet while watching our little spat. " You should be." She stated coldly. "Excuse me?" I asked. "Should be what?" "You should be sorry. You heard me. You're not deaf are you?"
