love is a mysterious force you can never know when or where it will strike. In my case it was a bit weird but in a sweet lovely way.
On my 18th birthday a boy from my class asked if I could be his date and seeing he was the new kid I didn't want to disappoint him so I agreed.
we want to a coffee shop for the date but surprisingly he never said a word to me and that was driving me crazy. I started to regret ever going on a date with him,so I decided to live but before could say a word he called the waiter and asked for the weirdest thing. he said to the waiter "can I please have some salt for my tea" everyone looked at him cause no one drinks salty tea so asked him why he wanted to drink salty tea,he smiled and said to me"I grew up by the sea side and salty tea reminds me of the sea and my family,I left them,the sea and my people I miss them so much so I drink salty tea to remember the sea water and all the things I've left behind. "
This made me realise that I almost lost such an amazing guy who has a sweet side,after that we became so close to other and he asked me to be his girlfriend.
we dated for still we both completed high school and even major in the same field.
five years later we got married and had two kids,we grew old together and i always made salty tea for him but he died at the age of 64 and I was left alone.
He left me a letter which he said I should read after the tenth day of his death so I opened it "my love am so happy I found you but I never told one thing I lied about loving to drink salty tea, I got scared during our first date and asked for salt instead of sugar and I did know what to do so I made up that story about salty tea,am sorry I lied to you " I dropped the letter on the table and couldn't help but a my silly late husband even if he lied to me am still glade he made up that story or I would have never met such an amazing guy.
