I woke up very early, since there were only a few hours left to go on the trip, Maria Palacios gave me a kiss on my cheek to cheer me up. I got out of bed, happy because this would be the first trip we were going to make together, we still have many trips to make, I told Maria while she was getting ready, it was starting to get dark and the cab driver was on his way.
We were sitting in the living room of my house, and the cab driver was just arriving, the sky darkened a little and I was worried that it was going to rain, because that was going to cause traffic and could delay us. Maria was calm on her phone while she drank a cup of tea, since she doesn't like coffee, I lost count of how many cups of coffee I drank out of desperation. She gets a message from the cab driver, who was outside the house, I honked the car horn and we got out.
We sat in the back seat while I gave the cab driver the address. I took his hand and Maria leaned on my shoulder, I hugged her tightly, as this adventure was just beginning. The cab driver indicated that we had arrived at the airport, I paid and we started walking, my excitement was very big, my hands were shaking, because I was going to get on that plane, even so Maria gave me some words of encouragement.
Walking through the airport, we passed by a coffee shop, a place that was full and that very rich smell that took over me, since I had not had coffee since we left the house. I kept watching those coffee machines, how they prepared it, and even that cup of coffee with that cookie. Maria was very upset, since I got carried away in that coffee shop and because of me we were almost late and missed our flight. I apologized to them and it was not going to happen anymore and we would concentrate on the trip.

We finally arrived in Spain and went to the hotel. The first thing Maria said to me was that she didn't want to see me doing my coffee ritual every morning, I didn't answer her and changed the topic of conversation about the time change. We went out to the supermarket to buy some food, when we got back Maria started to cook, while I went to prepare my coffee with cinnamon, however, I checked the shopping and the coffee packet was gone, things were not going well. Maria noticed my concern, and I didn't want to make a fuss.
I noticed the time and it was early, and the supermarket was a block away, Maria was surprised and annoyed, because I was going to leave her alone, we argued, as she made a dirty move of not sharing my coffee and thus taking away my ritual. She gave me a dirty look and left for the room. While I took some money and left. I felt lonely, lost, crazy cold and I noticed many couples walking the streets.
I arrived home after an hour, the food was on the table and Maria was locked in the room and did not tell me anything, I knocked on the door and nothing, I called her and she forwarded my calls, she did not answer my messages. I made a coffee, and I leaned on the furniture to wait for her to leave the room, finally she answered me and the only thing she told me, such a far trip we made and you only look for the coffee, it is always the same, first the coffee and you are dying for a cup of coffee, and you even didn't mind going to buy that package. I felt very bad, and we have barely been in Spain for a day and things are going very bad.

The next morning I heard the door to the room, I realized that Maria had left, but I didn't have time to say anything to her. That day was the worst, I didn't feel like doing anything and we had even planned to visit places and here I am. Hours of the night I heard the door, I was lazy, but the noise increased and I got up, it was Maria. I asked her what are you doing here, where did you go, why did you act like that, Maria didn't answer anything, she just hugged me and apologized, I offered her a cup of tea. We talked, and she told me that she was wrong, but that she didn't like my relationship with coffee, since that ritual every morning is the same, you get up very early and interrupt my sleep when you get out of bed, all for a cup.
Coffee for me is life and I don't think anyone can take it away from me, since it has accompanied me since I was very little and it was something I did with my mother and it is a memory, I will try to change the time to prepare it and thus sleep a few more hours together, do you think so? I hug you, remember that I love you very much and this trip we made to Spain is to continue forging our relationship, do not think that I will leave you or change for another, I will always keep you in mind as well as the coffee.

I hugged her and we went to the kitchen to prepare dinner, to sleep, because the next day there were many things to know. I woke up at 5 a.m., but I remembered the promise I made to Maria Palacios and fell asleep, so as not to start the next day with problems.
