###Coffee for love... Change? by @ungranulises
I don't like how focused you are on coffee! That's how the morning started.I woke up, washed my face and was mesmerized in the mirror, a strange feeling, the signs of a weird day, I walked to the kitchen and it was the first thing I heard. I dissimulated, took a glass of water and took a deep breath.
My dear Flower by @joalheal

I ordered an espresso and she asked for a tea, curious I gave her some alternatives with coffee but she only said that she had already had one in the afternoon and that it was enough for the rest of the day. That last sentence echoed in my mind, maybe because I don't usually use the words coffee and enough in the same sentence.
A promising Sunday by @susurrodmisterio
She spoke to me with a gentle tone of voice, but accurate, explaining that she was part of a new age trend, something like a sect that considered coffee as a drug, so to be her boyfriend, I had to change my lifestyle and consume only natural juices without sugar, leaving aside coffee and all its derivatives. My head exploded when I heard those words, my face became rigid, feeling one of my eyes throbbing at the same time that I tried to contain my laughter, I just listened, nodding my head.
Ritual of Love & Coffee by @riz611
After a month of living together, the other day she mentioned that she really doesn't like waking up to an empty bed, nor does she like missing out when I'm brewing up some coffee early in the morning, and then sipping away as soon as I wake up.
Both of us are coffeeholics, and she loves to join me for a cuppa, but our routines and morning rituals don't let us do so.
Keeping the rituals by @irvinc
The truth is that I don't like that you don't wait for me to have the first coffee in the morning, you always get up before me and the first thing you do is go directly to the coffee pot to prepare a coffee, it seems more like you take it as if it were a medicine. I wish that some days a week we could take some time to do it together and talk about anything while the rich aroma spreads through the kitchen. I like that romantic stuff...
A futile rivalry against coffee. by @george-dee
We kissed a few times while gisting in the bus and I could tell the fun wasn't over.
The bus drove past my favorite coffee shop and I was distracted for a few seconds, the coffee in the air seized my mind.
"Coffee, right?", Vivian called my attention back to her and I smiled.
"So you got carried away just now because of that coffee shop?", She asked.
"No, I didn't even see the shop", I replied.
She didn't talk to me after and I was still apologizing when we arrived at our bus-stop.
Between me and coffee, there's no saint that counts by @chacald.dcymt
I remember when we first met, I was in that little coffee shop in Old Havana having my third cup of coffee and he walked by with his lying down and that sideways walk that characterizes Cubans. He walked on but as if attracted by a magnet he went back half a block until he was in front of the window sill of the cafeteria and our gazes met.
Coffee jealousy by @lisrl26
Automatically I made my way to the coffee area, tripped over a market cart and almost fell over, Cristrian took me by the arm and asked if I was okay and then asked the second question.
"Why are you in such a hurry if we are just in the cafe area?"
"Look Cristrian this coffee, it must be new, I haven't tried it. Let's take a few bottles home." I replied excitedly.
Love and Coffee by @dianelson
The man I was falling in love with, the only person that had managed to pick a part of my heart was standing in front of me and telling me he didn't like my obsession with coffee and how I couldn't start my day without it.
Technically, he is sitting
Not now inner voice.
"Andrew. I'm not obsessed with coffee and I can start my day without it".
