Hello, my lovely people who frequently visit this excellent community.
Here I am again to share another great moment with my inseparable friend, “EL CAFË.”
A few days ago, I went to Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, specifically to the “DAKA” store to buy some kitchen utensils I needed.
As I was walking through the store on the second floor, I got a big surprise: my ex-husband Luis (the father of my two daughters) was also in the store, shopping with his current wife.
We almost bumped into each other, and we were all surprised. I stopped, greeted his wife with a kiss on the cheek, and gave him a gentle pat on the back.
We chatted for a while standing there and talked about what we were doing there.
Luis told me to finish buying what I had come for and that they were also going to finish their shopping, then we would meet downstairs in the café and have a coffee, he said. “How about it?” he asked me. I replied, “Of course, I'd love to.”
We said goodbye for a moment and a little later, when we were done, we met up, as he had said, in the store's café.
When I went down to the cafeteria, they were already there, waiting for me to order the coffees.
His wife and I each ordered a large latte, and Luis ordered a small light brown coffee.
The first thing we talked about was our daughters, then Yuly's son from her first marriage.
My coffee (for my taste) wasn't hot enough, so I sent it back to be heated up a little more, and it was very good.
They were satisfied with the temperature of their coffee.
Then we talked for a while about our current relationships, his marriage and mine after we divorced, and we also discussed some things that upset us a lot in the past, but now we laugh about them. Hahaha.
Many people criticize or comment on how I get along with Yuly, but what they don't know is that she is a good woman, so my daughters are very happy that their father is no longer alone and has a woman by his side with values and good principles, who is loving and cares for him deeply.
If my daughters are happy, so am I, so I don't see anything wrong with him having encounters like the one that day with them.
We're not best friends, but I like her, and if she ever needs a favor from me, I won't hesitate to help her, or the father of my daughters, because just because our relationship didn't work out doesn't mean we're enemies.
This “CAFË” was like a reminder to me that the end of a relationship doesn't have to be a war, because with respect and maturity we can find ways to be friends and continue building new memories, valuing the past without giving up on the future, especially for the well-being of our children...
So far, my dear friends, this is a little summary of another of my encounters with my dear and great friend “EL CAFË.” Thank you for reading.
