The barista handed me a coffee I didn't order.
"This one's on the woman ahead of you," she said. "She said you looked like you needed it more than her."
I turned around. The woman was already gone.
I didn't need the coffee. I needed someone to notice I was having the worst week of my life without me having to say it out loud.
Sometimes strangers see what the people closest to us miss.
@UziCryptoo I get why people feel this way. Paying off your mortgage and still worrying about losing your home can feel like you're never truly finished.
