I always look forward to the weekend, because it's my favorite time to go to a cafe with friends. We usually look for new places that are trending in the city. I like the warm cafe atmosphere, with the seductive aroma of coffee and soft music that makes us feel at home for a long time. Every time we arrived, my friends and I immediately ordered our favorite drink—I usually choose a latte or a cold chocolate drink. While waiting for the order, we joked and shared stories about what happened during the week.

For me, going to a cafe is not only about enjoying food and drinks, but also a time to strengthen friendships. We often talk about our dreams, future plans, or just funny things that make us laugh until our stomach hurts. Sometimes, we also bring schoolwork to do together, although in the end we talk more than study. The cozy cafe atmosphere makes everything feel more relaxed, even difficult tasks feel lighter if done together.

The days at the cafe always leave sweet memories. I like to take photos of food, drinks, or cafe interiors to upload to social media. It feels good to be able to share moments with others, although the most valuable thing is the time I spend with my friends. I realized, this adolescence will not last forever, so I want to enjoy every moment, including a walk to a simple cafe full of stories.
