Here is a play for a scene in Flowers for Algernon...
Scene in restaurant
Crash!(plates crash)
Everyone: Gasp!
Customers: Mazeltov!, Pick 'em up boy!
Manager(enraged): What is going on here!?
Boy: (frightened, shivers)
Manager: Well don't just stand there! Get a broom, you idiot, a broom!! It's in the kitchen!!
(Boy realizes he is not going to get whacked. He smiles sheepishly and walks to the kitchen.)
Manager: Well, you just can't get good help these days, I can't believe I got a mentally-
challenged boy for a dishwasher!
(Manager walks back into kitchen, the boy returns with a broom and a commotion starts.)
Customers: He's not so dumb after all! It's easier to break 'em then to wash 'em!Here, there's a nice piece behind you! No, no the other side you dope! (laughs)
(Boy smiles)
Charlie: Shut up! Stop mocking him! He can't help it! He was born this way, you know?
(Silence)
(Charlie feels his cheeks red hot, curses himself for acting so rashly. He walks out of the restaurant.)

Jing Rong here. Your post is something like the one in the story. I think you should add in more creative details and more better vocabulary to spice the scene or play up a little more. You did add some other information in but I don't think it's enough. If not, it will be quite simple to do it.
