One Picture And One Story Week #92

Hello everyone. This time, I want to join a contest held by @suboohi about Alert Contest ⚠️ 1 Photo 1 Story Sunday #92. After previously joining this contest, I want to invite my friends @mun-eeb , @sualeha , and @sitaraindaryas to participate.

A man lounged in a humble coffee shop with a zinc roof and thin black net walls on a warm, trying-and-dying afternoon. It was as if an open-air coffee shop were nestled among the thick trees, and it felt natural and cool, though the weather remained sunny. He was wearing a green sports shirt with a bold, colorful design that ran down the sleeves, the words “Popda Aceh” emblazoned across the chest — a hint that he could be involved in the sports world or back athletic pursuits in his region.

His face slack, expressionless, he looked straight into the camera and absorbed the small act. Behind the idle men, on a wooden bench, sat a man taking a sip from a cold beverage and staring at his phone. It's warm and casual here in the coffee shop, and pebbles are scattered across the floor.

This is more than just a portrait of a man. It is a barometer of the mood of our society at any point in time — a coffee shopis not just a coffee shop, it’s a sanctuary, for solace, conversation and reflection. You might during a hardday’s work, or for some time alone.

The peace that comes from this photo reminds us all of how even the littlest things can be the most important. A little pause that probably looks trivial but that means so much for who makes it.
