A love story, a challenge and Cappuccino/The Coffee Shop Prompt - Week 50

Friends of this beautiful community, it is a pleasure to share with everyone. In a particular way I like to participate in this interesting community, in which @cinnccf makes us a suggestive invitation and reveal the best anecdote that has been revealed to us in a coffee shop.

I must say that the anecdote I am going to tell may not be the best, but, yes, it is one of the ones that has captivated me the most. That is why I tell you what the barista of the Casa del Café in Topes de Collantes confessed to us and which is related to him, his current wife and the Capuchinos.

It turns out that when we visited the Casa del Café, my husband, our friends and I were captivated by this place and we went on four of the six days we were in the Villa de descanso. Whenever we were there we learned many things related to coffee, its life, adventures and many others. But, there was one that left us fascinated:

It turns out that the barista met his former wife at a competition where coffee drinks were prepared and he did not achieve a good place. According to what he told us, he thought that this was not his world, but one of the young ladies watching the competition explained to him why his Cappuccino had not reached the required quality. She also told him that he had the conditions for the job and that he should never give up.

He accepted the challenge and began to perfect this drink until he became a cappuccino expert.

He told us that the continuous contact with that young girl ended in romance and, although they broke up some years ago, he must thank her for having taught him the courage to never give up, to know how to make cappuccino and to know love through her.

I remember that day her eyes watered and so did ours. As a courtesy, she gave us a cup of her Cappuccino coffee.
