When the coffee was served, Amanda asked Joan, “Do you want some milk with it?”

“I like to enjoy the bitter and aromatic taste.” Joan gently swirled the coffee and asked, “Do you take it with sugar and milk?”

Amanda did not touch the coffee, looked at him, and answered, “In the past, I would add sugar as I felt that it was too bitter. Then gradually I prefer to take it black.”

Perhaps it was the year when she was recuperating overseas after her brush with death. A lot of her regular habits changed during that time.

Amanda grinned, “You don’t like an intense taste?”

“No,” Joan replied.

“I’ll treat you to a meal tomorrow.” She took another sip and then grinned when she placed the cup down.
