Thirst for coffee
A big hello to all those who enjoy coffee as much as I do, this is my participation in the #spillthebeans contest and I would like to invite to participate to @ayneblood
The brushes of the car are activated to brush away from the glass, the small drops of rain that come with the dew in this cold climate, allowing Brittany to enjoy all the splendor of this magnificent valley surrounded by high gray mountains, where the sun begins to show its first rays with a dull light, which barely manages to clarify the panorama full of fog
However, the smile on the face of the beautiful woman is not daunted, by the loneliness of the long dirt path that she is traveling to reach finally to your destination. A small wooden house by the dark lake, which she managed to acquire by spending all her savings, but which somehow fills her with hope, trying to rebuild her life after the terrible divorce.
For years, she was mistreated by Prince Charming, who completely shattered all her fairy tale dreams by transforming into a monster that beat her daily, to the point of almost killing her. That's why these days, with what remains of her inner strength, she seeks to start in a new place, away from everything, trying in turn that the perverse man never manages to locate her again.
Opening the door to his new house, a cloud of dry dust rises inside, causing him to sneeze and cough as he moves through the gloom, searching for a switch to turn on at least one light bulb, finally getting one of the Lamps dimly lit in a dining room everything looks intact, there are a few very old pieces of furniture cluttered with dirt and mold, though it looks like you've stepped into a time capsule.
The girl advances towards the kitchen with the little light that there is in the house, to check how she is and see what she needs in her first days, when observing the polished wooden counter completely white due to the accumulated earth, she takes a rag and begins to clean it. At that moment she realizes that there is an old coffee maker that was very special to the former owner because it is in a place away from everything, she cleans it in detail to see if it may have any value, but she does not consider it important. Motivated that coffee is something that is not part of his fitness life, while green juices and tea are the centers of his world.
Brittany puts the coffee maker aside putting in a box, to put in a shop window, give it as a gift, or in the worst case, throws it away, so she continues to concentrate on cleaning her kitchen in a very happy way while imagining all the recipes or drinks that she can prepare to maintain your lifestyle.
That night in the solitude of her cold room, the young woman begins to feel a strange fear that she had never experienced in her life, something begins to shake her in her bed as if transmitting an uncomfortable vibration, she hears knocks on the doors and even footsteps. They squeak the wooden floorboards in the kitchen, even with all the panic that ran through her body in the form of an involuntary shiver, the girl runs out and goes down to check who is there, but she never gets anything, the light bulbs start to flash, but it's not an electrical fault.
These strange events are repeated for several nights, making her life quite difficult on the newly acquired property, she feels as if there is a supernatural presence trying to tell her something, but she doesn't know what it is.
One night Brittany sees that something shines in the kitchen, at that moment she realizes that there is an old woman next to the counter with a sad face and tears in her eyes, but she abruptly disappears before her eyes.
Her thoughts about what had happened did not let her sleep, so by various means, she tried to communicate with the ghost, without any success. But without knowing when it happened, she falls asleep and in her dreams she finds a very nice old lady, she then realizes that it is the same person she had seen in her kitchen the other night.
The old woman finally manages to tell her to please not throw away the coffee pot, because it is a family gift and she would like it to be part of her life and her new family, inviting him to make coffee and also to place an offering of a cup for her of coffee, which is what she needs to cross over to the other world because she died thirsty and anxious to drink that coffee, which was the drink that drove her life all the time.

muchas gracias por invitarme! Justo me pillaste escribiendo dos relatos de terror jaja, uno lo tenía acabado y el otro estoy a punto, pero no me enteré de este evento... Ya publiqué uno que traduje rápido al inglés pero no sé si llegué a tiempo antes de que se cerrase el plazo. Fue todo muy precipitado 😂 P.D. Me encantó tu historia! Las casas en los lagos siempre tienen un halo de misterio //
thank you so much for inviting me! You just caught me writing two horror stories haha, one I had finished and the other I'm about to, but I didn't know about this event.... I already posted one that I quickly translated into English but I don't know if I made it in time before the deadline. It was all very rushed 😂 P.D: Loved your story!
Hi yes when I saw this contest I thought of you from the beginning, since in your submission you placed that your genre is horror writing, hahaha so much so that you were writing two, thank you for reading my story and that you liked it is an achievement for me, yes the houses on the lakes I have always considered them mysterious and most with paranormal things
It's great to have you get involved with this festive theme.
We hope to see you around the community sometimes:)
Hello thank you very much for the welcome, this is the third publication that I make in the community because I find it great, I congratulate you for creating such a wonderful space where I can share my experiences enjoying coffee. I'm sure you'll see me around here quite a lot because this community brings together two of the things I like most writing and drinking coffee, have a happy evening.
Thank you for your lovely feedback 😊
See you around:)
No matter how good that old lady's face may look, the affairs of the beyond will always be scary, so let's put her coffee on and quench her thirst.
Hello your comment is very good and I think the same as you the things of the beyond that stay there hahaha, to me it scares me too as nice as the lady sounds, so let's put coffee to quench their thirst, thanks for reading my story.
A story with a beautiful ending. I hope Brittany fulfills the lady's wish.
Thank you very much for stopping by my publication, yes I hope that she also fulfills the wish of that poor soul so she can be at peace.
"Someone hurry up and make the poor woman a coffee already!!!!"
Haha
Nice entry. Thanks for participating 😀
Hello, thank you very much for that great comment, I share your opinion, you have to give a coffee soon to that poor ghost that was left suffering for not being able to drink coffee, things like that should not happen, no one should be left waiting without being able to enjoy the wonders of this rich drink. Happy night
