Coffee to Sooth

When we are in our early dating days, Bits never lets me know when he is stressed. He will say he is fine and curi-curi go drink solo coffee. When I know about this I always feel a bit sad that he did not want to share it with me or that could be male ego. I don't know.

So after much encouragement and telling how I think a relationship should work, he promise me he will not hide things from me and he never did. So now when he is having a bad day he will tell me so and I will ask him from a scale of 1 to 10 how bad cause I like things to be measurable not to mention I suck at reading body language. So if it hits 7 and above I will offer him company and a cup of coffee. 

I realize we often go Sensory Lab behind David Jones - maybe cause it's on the way. They also have a small selection of cakes that I like. The other day I wanted to have the flourless cake but Bits stubornly want this poppy seed cake. Since he is having a bad day, he gets it. Later I knew poppy seed is a common ingredient in his culture. SO this must be comfort food.


This man.....must peel him back like an onion and always pusing pusing. Looking at the miserable slice, mana cukup both of us, so I ordered a green tea something with lemon curb.


Hot chocolate for me.....


And coffee for Bits.

It's good to let him release tension and I can tell he feels so much more relaxed after he barfed it all out. At the same time I get to eat. I also realize I used to do this alot with Nite back in the days. Now I don't spend as much time with her anymore (~guilty).

How do one balance both worlds?
