I rushed to my brother's room when I heard a sound like something was smashed. To my greatest surprise it was the new alarm clock I gifted him some weeks ago because the old one had stopped working.
"Bro, what did you do that for" I asked as I bent over to pick it up.
" This alarm clock won't stop ringing, I barely had some sleep last night"
" I know right, you didn't sleep because you were busy writing some love letter to some coffee girl"
He looked up at me and jumped down from the bed as though he just realized it was morning already.
"It's Monday morning he exclaimed, where is my letter he said looking around.. don't tell me you took it"
" Of course I took it and now I am going to read through" I yelled while walking through the door.
When I came back to the room he was already having his bath so I made sure to read out loud .it reads
Dear Jane,
It's been two months since I last saw you, I couldn't resist your charm since the first day I met you at the coffee shop.
I never stopped thinking about you. My heart has been with you all this while even though I never had the courage to make myself visible.
You might be wondering who sent this, I will reveal myself in due time, for now I am your secret admirer.
Let me make this confession, ever since I met you at the coffee shop I couldn't stop myself from seeing you. That's why I always stop by the shop and request that my coffee be delivered by you.
I found a new flavour which made my coffee taste even better and now dropping by today to hand you this letter is what I anticipate for because I know the coffee today will taste even more better than the previous ones.
Your secret admirer.
"Wow! Go bro, ask her to go on a date with you, am sure she will say yes because you are a good guy and handsome too. Tell her what you feel who knows she might be feeling you as well.
" Look who is talking, what do you know please hand me my letter. But honestly, I feel so excited,can't wait to meet her. Infact I will drop by before heading to the office.

Fast forward to later in the day
I went down the street to get some things I needed to make dinner. On getting home I saw the front door slightly open,I was wandering who was home because I know I had locked the door before leaving the house
So I opened the door silently and tiptoed inside the house, guess who I found? my brother.
I ran to him to asked how his day went and if he succeeded in talking to his crush
"Bro, how did it go, were you able to talk to her? I didn't get any response, I became worried
Bro talk to me did somebody die, have you heard from mum and dad?
" Nobody died" came the reluctant reply
"So tell me how it went.
" Well, I got the the shop and guess what, I didn't see her nor other workers. The shop has now employed the services of robots.
" Robots?
" Yes and guess what the robots said they no longer serve coffee and suggested I have tea instead.
" So you lost both your crush and your coffee. Unbelievable!
