       But I wasn't   3    the people with enormous orders, the women who   4  that the coffee was much too creamy （全乳脂的）, or the men who wanted their iced coffees   5  again and again until they reached perfection. I couldn't seem to   6 anyone.

       One rainy day, one of my regular customers came in looking  7  . He said he felt like getting in bed, pulling the   8  up over his head, and staying there for a few years. I knew exactly how he felt.
