"Sarah! Use the bathmat when you get out of the shower! The water is practically up to my ankles," Paris yelled to Sarah, who was looking through the refrigerator, while Rory walked out of her bedroom.
"Paris, get over it. I'm going to work. Paris, leave Sarah alone. Just stay in your room until you have to go to work, please," Rory pleaded with Paris.
"Fine, but I can't stand living in a swamp!" Paris said before she went into her room and slammed the door.
"Bye Sarah," Rory said.
"Bye Rory. I didn't mean to not use the bathmat. I accidentally forgot to," Sarah explained.
"I know, Sarah. Don't pay any attention to Paris," Rory said before politely leaving her apartment.
When Rory left for work that Friday morning, she stopped to get coffee. When she stepped into the coffee place she saw two people that she knew from Stars Hollow, but when she saw them she left. She left in a really awkward way, she didn't want Jess Mariano or Dave Rygalski to see her. Her ex-boyfriend and Lane's ex-boyfriend would just be a really tough meeting for the first thing in the morning.
Rory went without her coffee until she got to work and drank the crappy office coffee. Rory took her coffee back to her cubicle. Minutes later Paris showed up in front of Rory's face, holding her own cup of coffee. "So, I saw you leaving the Coffee Bean this morning. What was that about?" Paris asked, sipping her coffee.
"Before I even got to order my coffee I saw a couple of people that I don't think I can deal with," Rory explained, sipping her own coffee.
"Who could you have seen at eight o'clock in the morning? Nobody but us is up at eight o'clock in the morning."
"Well, lets see, Jess Mariano, my ex-boyfriend, and Dave Rygalski, Lane's ex-boyfriend, are apparently up at eight o'clock in the morning."
"No way! Have you seen them at all since we've moved here?" Paris asked.
"No, it's the first time that I've seen Jess in like, five years. I just don't know if I can see him again or talk to him, it'd be way too weird, Paris."
"Rory, I have to work. Talk to Sarah about this later," Paris said before turning around and walking away.
"OK," Rory said, a little bit confused, to her computer. She started doing some research, but got distracted and decided to call Lorelai. "Mom, I had a really bad morning!" Rory said into the phone once her mom had answered.
"Honey, what happened?" Lorelai asked.
"When I went to get my coffee..." Rory trailed off.
"What happened when you went to get your coffee?"
"I saw a couple of people that I didn't necessarily want to see!"
"Who? Do I know them?"
"Yes, they're two guys that we knew from Stars Hollow. It was Jess and Dave. Mom, it was so weird."
"Well, what did they say?"
"See, I left before they had the option of seeing me. But why did I see them now? I've lived her three years and have never seen them, why today?" Rory asked Lorelai.
"There are eight million people in that city. It was just a freak coincidence today. Honey, don't dwell on this. Don't let it get to you. Maybe if you see them again, you could talk to them," Lorelai pushed on her daughter, only trying to be supportive.
"OK, Mom. I love you."
"I love you too, Honey. I'll call you later."
