Two cups. One love.
Never could I imagine that my life will be changed by coffee and tea.
He was such a computer geek and I guess you could consider me a nerd. We met in a geekette’s party and yet we didn’t get to really talk until our common friend said he had books of Umberto Eco. That drew me to him. And one afternoon we decided to meet up for coffee and tea in Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf in Greenbelt 3. He had books. I had a laptop. It was an afternoon in January 2005. We met at around 6pm and conversation just flowed on and on and on. We practically never left the table and we savored each drop of our drinks and each word that was said. It was the beginning of a series of meetings in the coffee shop.
Months ensued and we met in the afternoons, some times in the evenings. It was probably the coffee, the tea, the atmosphere. We kept talking a lot until one day I realized how much I shared with him and I couldn’t wait for the next time we’d be sitting under one of the umbrellas or on the sofa chairs. Maybe the barista put something in the tea or the coffee. Something was definitely brewing and we both took it in and it’s been a little over three years since then.
This is my Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf story. Or maybe more like my geek/nerd love story, but some of the most important days and conversations did happen there.

Then again, nothing beats having a photobook to ogle at while they’re at home and chilling with the other Pinky:St dolls.
