Coffee Chronicles
Page 3
Sia was speechless. She nodded, and I offered her my pen. As she marked her signature on my copy, I noticed her expressions. It was a mixture of happiness and excitement. Her smile had been constant since I gave her the book.
“Thank you, thank you, so much!”
“There is one more thing, Sia,” I said.
“Still?”
“Yes,” I replied. “This story began because of you. You inspired me.” I took out my phone, opened my e-publishing account, opened the draft named Coffee Chronicles. “I haven’t published it online yet. Please do the honour. Make the story live for others.”
It seemed Sia was trying hard to contain all happiness within her, but somehow her eyes betrayed her. They were watery. She tapped her finger on the Publish button, and shared the story to the world.
I looked at her and said, “You aren’t an inspiration, Sia. You are a blessing. Thank you for everything, and Happy Birthday, hope you like my gift.”
“You remember?”
“Obviously.”
Unaware of our attention, thin threads of steam from our cups were entwining.
