At a cafe

She stares out from her window,

sipping her hot coffee,

and listening to the sound of the rain.

How long has it been after the train has left?

How long has it been for her in this once unfamiliar town, 

now slowly turned into a little home for her?

She had lost track of time as she had been exploring each part of the little town.

As she was sipping her cup of coffee,

she saw a birthday cake on a table.

A cute couple entered the cafe,

with the male holding a bouquet of roses,

and the lady was holding a present.

She realised that it was also someone's big day too.

She would never forget that date.

It has been etched in her mind ever since she met him.

She remembered the first time they celebrated it together,

and his face when he received her presents.

She smiled when she played back all those memories,

and looked outside.

She wished she was there at the moment,

but she knew that it was impossible.

She didn't feel sad,

she feel happy,

as she knows that he is happy as well regardless of where he is,

who he is with,

and what he is doing.

She took a book that she has handmade on her own during her time on the train,

wrapped it carefully,

walked towards the counter,

and asked the man to help her send it off,

to the person who she knows,

will be delighted to receive.
