Edward the detective enters in his office. He's of italian descent, and is known for his bad temper. There are no interesting cases for more than a week, so he's starting to be frustrated and bored. He sits in his chair, near to the window, looking at the streets, at the people, at the city. Then turns the head toward the door and starts to shout: "ANNA! CAN YOU BRING ME A COFFEE? ESPRESSO, NOT THE AMERICAN ONLY-BLACK-WATER SHIT",
Anna is the secretary, she's very patient with him. She enters the room after a while, with the coffe obviously, and says...
"Here you go." As he takes the coffee mug with frustration that it took so long, and takes a sip. Immediately his face turns pale. He cannot breathe, and he collapses on the floor, while Anna grins to herself. "Solve THAT mystery" she said in delight, exhaling away a decade of being ignored and mistreated. But now she had to leave the country. She walked outside, got inside a taxi, and when the man asked her "Where to, miss?" she said....
"Somewhere nondescript. I've just killed a man." "Ain't that a felony?" the befuddled taxi driver asked. "Well that's what my parents always told me, but who listens to their parents anyway?" she scoffed at the driver's apparent lack of street smarts. "Right ya are, miss," he conceded to her overwhelmingly logical argument. "There's an abandoned warehouse down by the docks if that'll suit you for a hideout." "Magnificent." She said as the driver flipped a U-ey and headed down to the river . . .
As they drove along the city street out into a rural area, the sky suddenly darkened.. "Huh, didn't think it was supposed to rain today." the taxi driver said with questioning. There was a strong wind that blew down straight from the sky, scattering leaves and trash into the windshield. screech! The driver stomped on his breaks, unable to see the road ahead.
"Awh geez, what happened?" Anna exclaimed from beneath her disheveled hat. The driver gazed out his window, wide-eyed in disbelief. "Wha-" Anna stopped as she saw what was outside. A giant alien mother-ship had parked over their vehicle, hovering lightly about fifty feet above the ground...
...then, at the bottom of the ship, a door opens, a ray with dozens of color shades projects to the ground, a creature comes out from that door, and starts to fall, slowly. Is like an enormous ferret with hands, and completely bald. When he's already fallen to earth, he approach the taxy, seems that he's smelling something... he became nervous. He accost near to taxi side where sits Anna, she's afraid. Then, the alien says, with a hoarse high voice " Wiiiiih... Niiid... CUUUUFF' AAAAAAA!" Anna gasps and think "again?". The taxi driver put an hand inside his jacket and...
He took a green fabric bag containing a handful of hand-painted golden coffee beans from an inside pocket, where they've been kept for years, ever since he obtained them one Xmas when his father finally gave up to his demands. It was the fifth consecutive year he wrote the same letter with the same request. 'Bring me, please, puh-lease, some golden coffee beans'. His parents never understood his persistence and despite all the efforts made by his peers at school, then at work and then by his wife, he always knew he wasn't crazy. He always carried them with him because he knew this moment would come. All those years, hopefully waiting. He barely contained the stream of tears. Everything turned out to not be in vain. A constant dream. A constant nightmare. It was his chance for redemption for all those years of undying guilt. It was just neglect when his pet ferret walked unnoticeably through the automatic coffee grinding machine on his father's workshop, where he was playing innocently at his 8 years old. Since then, it always appeared to him on dreams, perhaps to satisfy the desire it never met in life or perhaps to...

Finally meet the one from a galaxy far away. The one who had the power to allow a person a chance to go back in time and permanently alter any event in their life. The one who came to him in his dreams. He offered to travel long in far in exchange for some golden coffee beans. It was the golden coffee beans that fueled his gift. He was running down to the last of his power, and if he used the last with out refueling them he lost them for good. The driver didn't want to deceit the alien or be the cause of him losing his powers. He was a natural do-gooder and incapable of lying, when he remembered his sly murderous passenger, who he recently helped. He turned to Anna...
