Gently you place the recognisable paper cup beside me.
But it’s not just a coffee.
It’s a warm and welcome rescue on a day that blooms from a restless night and meltdowns;
It’s a reminder that you have my back, you will be there to catch me just before I fall, and bring me back to level ground again.
A silky liquid warming tense shoulders, helping to loosen the clamp of a headache trying to take hold.
It’s that sweet whisper that no matter how busy your day is, or how packed your schedule is with meetings and deadlines, I’m there with you always.
