Salted coffee

He met her at a party. She is outstanding; Many boys are after her, but no one pays attention to him. After the party, he invited her to have coffee. She was surprised. In order not to appear rude, she followed.

When they were sitting in a beautiful coffee shop, he was too nervous to speak, and she felt uncomfortable. Suddenly, he asked the waiter, "Can you give me some salt? I want to put it in my coffee. "

They have a good laugh at his expense. His face turned red, but when the salt came, he drank it in his coffee. Out of curiosity, she asked, "Why add salt to coffee?" He explained, "When I was a little boy, I lived by the sea. I like playing with the sea ... I can feel its salty taste, just like salty coffee. Now every time I drink it, I think of my childhood and my hometown. I miss it and my parents, who are still there. "

She was deeply moved. A man who can admit that he is homesick must love his home and care about his family. He must be responsible.

She also talked about her distant hometown, her childhood and her family. This is the beginning of their love story.

They continued dating. She found that he met all her requirements. He is tolerant, kind, enthusiastic and careful. Think about it, if it weren't for salty coffee, she might miss this opportunity!

So they got married and lived happily together. Every time she makes coffee for him, she puts some salt, the kind he likes.

After 40 years, he died and wrote her a letter, which read:

My dearest, please forgive my life's lies. Remember our first date? I'm so nervous. I want salt instead of sugar.

It was hard for me to ask for a change, so I went on. I never thought we would hit it off. Many times, I tried to tell you the truth, but I was afraid it would ruin everything.

Honey, I don't like salty coffee. But this is too important to you, so I don't like it. It is my greatest happiness to have you with me. If I can live again, I hope we can be together again, even if it means drinking salti coffee for the rest of my life.

I played too hard!
