About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the quiet corner of Pause & Co., an elderly gentleman entered one morning with a curious item in hand—a vintage coffee mug emblazoned with ‘Healing Hands Clinic’ from the 1980s. No one could recall its origin or why it had suddenly appeared on the clinic’s shelves. As he sipped his coffee, another patient, a grumpy old man, looked up and asked curiously, 'Is that really your Healing Hands mug?' The staff laughed nervously, not sure how to respond. Finally, someone quipped, 'It’s our new antique theme!' The whole place burst into laughter—even the serious-looking doctor cracked a smile.

2. A young nurse was closing up for the night when she heard someone whispering from behind the counter. ‘Excuse me,’ said a voice, ‘can you tell me how long it takes to pause here?’ She turned around sharply, but saw no one. Smiling to herself, she thought maybe it was just her imagination playing tricks on her after a long day. Then, from the hallway came another soft voice: 'Actually, I’m in a hurry—how fast can you pause?'

3. At dawn, when most clinics are still locking their doors, a delivery driver arrived with a mysterious package marked ‘urgent’. The package contained an ancient coffee machine from the 1980s—a gift for the receptionist’s birthday. It turned out to be the talk of the town, and soon everyone was stopping by Pause & Co. just to see it. The legend grew that on Mondays, the old machine brewed the strongest cup of coffee in the city.

4. In the early hours before dawn, a neighbor walked his dog around the block and noticed something unusual. The streetlight outside Pause & Co. flickered on and off, as if someone were inside turning it on manually. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only an empty hallway illuminated by dim lights. Suddenly, a delivery driver arrived with a box marked ‘Medical Supplies.’ As he entered, the light blinked again—this time in sync with his footsteps. Turns out, the clinic’s motion-sensor lamp was playing tricks on everyone.
