Getting to his feet, he leaned over the table to separate the tip from the total, tucking the former under his empty coffee cup, and moved up to the front counter, his newspaper forgotten on the table. He hadn't meant to leave it behind, and by the time it occurred to him that he had, he was half-way to the door, his check paid, and he didn't quite have the motivation to go after it. Let the waitress chick keep it or trash it. Let the next schmuck who sat down for breakfast take it home with him. Whatever. It wasn't as though he'd actually been interested in it in the first place, and that in mind, he didn't cast so much as a backwards glance at it as he moved outside.
