Thank you for choosing to read, "Coffee Love."

The soft autumn breeze filled my lungs. I walked around my neighborhood, enjoying the sunset at around 5:00 pm. I stopped by a local park and decided to study Spanish using a book I just recently bought. Someone stepped in front of me and I looked up.

"Oh hey, Alex."

"Hey, Amanda. Whatcha reading?" he asked. 

I showed him the cover of my book, "Short Stories in Spanish for beginners."

"Tu hablas español?" he asked, "Do you speak Spanish?"

"No hablas español. Mi español es muy mal," I said, hoping that i didn't sound like a fool, "I don't speak Spanish. My Spanish is really bad." 

"Me neither," said Alex, "I learned a bit in high school but I didn't continue to learn the language."

"Now I'm curious, where are you from?" I asked Alex. 

He sat down in front of me, "I'm Icelandic though, I've only lived in Vermont."

"I'm French and I've also only lived on Vermont," I responded.

"Tu parles français?" asked Alex, "Do you speak French?"

"Oui, Je parle français," I responded, "Yes, I speak french."

"Je ne parle pas bien français," said Alex, "I dont speak French well."

"That's okay," I said, "English works just as well."

I looked up at the sky, it had only been 20 minutes but the sky was already dark. 

"Bonne nuit," I said, getting up, "Good night"

"Hasta mañana," said Alex with a smile, "See you tomorrow."
