Day 3 - tea or coffee
In Lars and Mei's new apartment there are two cups that are right next to each other. The cups are very different, one of them is white with a print of small pink flowers, and the other one is dark blue almost black. However, it's as if they belonged together since the beginning of times. An exaggeration, but in Mei's opinion, it's true. They are an important part of their new life as newlyweds.
The apartment is small but comfortable. They felt really lucky to have found a nice place with a balcony and an amazing view. Now they needed something special, the first thing they'd buy together as a married couple. They were thinking what would be nice, maybe a piece of furniture, a new TV or a dinner service. Everything seemed too much. Then she saw a couple of cups and it seemed perfect.
"What do you say? Let's start with something small and simple" she suggested, holding both cups.
"I like them, but they don't match, they aren't even alike" he replied, raising an eyebrow.
"I know, Bunny. Anyways we are going to put something different in them" she said, giggling.
Lars guessed she was right. After all they had a sort of tradition since they started dating in college. Every afternoon, she had tea and he coffee, served with stroopwafels, and they talked about their day or whatever topic that came to their mind. It was a very intimate moment between the two of them. They forgot about their problems or found the comfort they needed. It even helped them to confront difficult times.
"Alright, let's buy them" he said with a smile and a knowing look.
Mei smiled too. Even though it was something very simple, they were excited because that was the first thing they got to build their new home and their new life together.
