Fancy Seeing You (continued...)

To really understand what's going on in this story, you need to read the first half. I hope you did, because, here we go.

As I stared down the barrel of the gun, I came to realize that it wasn't a real gun. In one swift motion I grabbed it and aimed it at him. When he threw his hands up I discovered that I was wrong. It was a real gun. While pondering over the fact that I just risked my life, I asked him,"What are you doing here?" He suddenly calmed down and said,"You should put the gun away." He said this while smirking.
Why was he avoiding my question. I left the gun up and asked more assertively,"Why are you here?!"
"Put the gun down. We both know you're not going to shoot." He stepped forward with his hands in his pockets. At about that time, Toshlin stomped in behind me. I could tell it was her by the sound of her thighs rubbing together. "Mystery Man!"
The thing you should know about this man, is that we don't know his name. He calls himself The Mystery Man. He runs around with his partner Nogger Nick, who didn't seem to be around.
I still had the gun up,"I'm going to ask you one more time, Why are you here?!" His face got serious and he said,"This is my coffee shop."
Was it possible that the coffee shop that my sister and I chose tonight was the same one that The Mystery Man frequented? While I pondered the question, The Mystery Man tackled me to the ground, took the gun and ran. I tried to run after him, but his legs are longer than mine and he got away.
I walked back to Toshlin,"You still want that coffee?"
"Sure. But, let's go somewhere else." That was probably a good idea, but I was going to keep my eye on Cafe Coffee.
