The afternoon tea at Au Bon Pain

I am sitting here at the Au Bon Pain and observing people through the glass wall.
Relaxing and trying to be at ease as much as I can while I am writing this.

One cute young couple were sitting and enjoying coffee form the white steamy mugs. The cloud of the coffee mixed with their perfect white teeth laughing made this whole shop seem to getting brighter even in the very bright sunny day like this. From the way they look at each other, the way they talk ... and the way the laugh. It was not difficult at all to tell that ... they are in love :)

But that still can’t compare with this old couple. I can’t stop smiling when I saw the old gentleman, who went to get the hot water for lady and pour her tea and she tear a small sugar bag in his tea without asking how much he want. ...It was just a glimmer of care that was showing but I can see that is real.

They feel comfortable with each other like the couple who live together for long time should be. Time bonds them together. They must of gone through a lot of things in life together, and of course must had some hard time. No doubt but at least now they are here showing love and care to each other.

This is what many people would like to see and would like to be, and with no exception... Me too :)

I still keep smiling about what I just saw ... even those couple was gone somewhere already. But the love is still in the air :)
