ADDICTION, EXPRESSIONS
Half a Cheek’s Worth
Coffee rationing
I love coffee. That’s me smiling in a coffee shop, inhaling the aroma of the coffee roasting and brewing behind me.
For my birthday a couple of years ago, I got myself a new brand of fancy coffee — with a free mug! It was one of the loveliest mornings I’ve had. I unboxed the coffee, made it in the new mug, and took a picture to remind myself how happy the luxurious coffee experience had made me.
If it was available in India, I had tried it out. The coffee brand Davidoff, my favorite is the most intense kind.
Coffee was the cheat code for my life. It didn’t matter if I was anemic, low on energy or sleep, or overworked or buzzed out. Another cup of coffee and I would be ready for the next challenge.
