nan's life in all the words.

he actually showed up at the shop.

I almost dropped a pitcher of steamed milk today. I was right in the middle of the morning rush at the coffee bar, looked up, and Jon was standing in line. He never comes to my work. He just ordered a black coffee, tipped five bucks, and smiled at me before he left. The 22-year-old texted me later to say he dropped off groceries at her Brooklyn apartment, too. He is trying. He is really, really trying to show up for all of us. I went in the back room and cried for like three minutes into a napkin. Don’t tell anyone.
