Emotional stories come in many forms. For example, there’s the romantic kind.
“Nooo, don’t go… kajimaaaa,” the girl cries.
“No I must go.” The boy smiles. “I’m sorry…”

“Kajimaaaa, yameteeeee…”
“I’m so sorry…” the boy whispers, as he entered the loo. “I’ll be quick, alright?”
There’s also the catastrophic kind.
“The doctor told me that I only have six months left,” the boy says.
“Nani?!” the girl utters, before clasping desperately to the boy. “No, you can’t do this to me! Yameteeeee!”
As the girl screams and shouts, the boy holds her close to him.
“Once the six months are up, I’ll be free to be with you together… forever.”
“That’s what I don’t want you arse. Someone ask the doctor to keep you here forever!”

And last but not least, there’s the coffee kind.
Like this one.
The Coffee That Tastes Different Now
Meet Instagram user Jing Ying.
According to Mothership, she has been ordering drinks from the same uncle at a coffee shop in Tampines for a while now.
Coffee she genuinely enjoyed.

So when her favourite coffee uncle retired, she began noticing how different the coffee tasted.
Putting it down to a mental thing at first, she soon realised that there was more to it.
Like literally.
Always? Always.
An hour after she first procured her different-tasting cup of coffee, Jing Ying went back to the coffee shop, where the auntie manning the stall supposedly called out:
“AH GIRL, THE SAME?”

“Yes, the same,” Jing Ying replied, before adding (pretty sure it’s casually) that it doesn’t taste the same though.
And here’s where the auntie dropped a truth bomb.
The uncle has apparently been making a special mix of coffee for her.
As it turns out, the uncle had taken note of her coffee preference, and had personally endeavoured to make a personalised cup of coffee for her all this while.
At no additional charge either.
The best coffee uncle of all time
Apparently, Jing Ying wasn’t the only lucky patron to have gotten her own customised cup of coffee.

The uncle had seemingly done the same thing for most of his regular customers.
Basically, the uncle would ask his new customers to take a sip first, and then from there, assess what ratio of milk / coffee is the customer’s preference. Then he’ll memorise that and use the “customised” ratio for each customer differently.
“Have a safe trip and great retirement, my best coffee uncle,” Jing Ying wrote.
Damn, ninjas cutting onions again.

On a separate note, cherish the people around you, people.
Always.
