The burger landed face down on the dirty floor.
The woman folded her arms.
“Then pick it up.”
Gasps rippled through the restaurant.
Then the entire restaurant fell silent.
The pregnant woman stared at the burger.
Then at the woman.
She didn’t move.
“I said pick it up.”
Nobody spoke.
Parents stopped talking.
Children stopped eating.
Even the employees behind the counter had frozen.
The woman laughed.
“If you’re hungry enough to dig through trash, then the floor shouldn’t bother you.”
A man sitting nearby muttered, “What is wrong with you?”
She ignored him.
Instead, she looked around the restaurant.
