Though the girl had accepted
his invitation to meet him on coffee, she found the meet quite boring and was
about to leave when the boy asked the waiter to bring salt for his coffee. The girl grew interested in his strange
behavior and sat back to listen to the reason behind it. He cooked up one,
infact he cooked it so well that they gelled well and soon were tying the knot.
After 40 years, he passed away. He had left
her a letter which read: "My dearest, please forgive me for the lie. This
was the only lie I said to you, the salty coffee. Remember the first time we
dated? I was so nervous at that time, actually I wanted some sugar, but called
for salt. It was hard for me to change so I just went ahead. I never thought
that would start a conversation! Later I tried to tell you the truth many times
in life, but was too afraid to do that. Now I'm dying and afraid of nothing so
I tell you the truth: I don't like the salty coffee, what a strange bad
taste..but I had that salty coffee for my whole life. Just for you. Having you
with me was my biggest happiness for the whole life.”
