#38 The Importance of Loyalty

38. After a less than enjoyable morning, i had to make an important decision regarding my hunger. The fact of the matter was that i was starved, and the most logical thing to do (since i was already running late, and had places to be...like work) was to grab the first thing i saw and get a move on. There was no option in being picky, just this once, i couldn't afford to spoil myself. So I grabbed my latte from Second Cup instead of Starbucks, because there were no S-bucks that i was aware of on my way. The important thing to note here, is that loyalty is a two-way street... and that God must have seen an opportunity to teach me a lesson on allegiance. So feeling guiltier than ever, Second Cup in hand, a very flustered me stumbled out of Union Station in a direction i'd never come across before. And that's where it happened. Caught chai-latte handed. It was as if the gates to heaven had just opened up to me, and i was standing there with an "i love Satan" t-shirt on. I stood there for a moment, feeling sorry for myself, suddenly recgonizing the less than mediocore taste of drink in my mouth. It was disappointment at its finest. The lesson had been learned. Loyality is infact a two-way street. Starbucks would never let me down the way i did her. I can only hope that she'll remember, that brown and gold package in my hands, will only ever be the "second cup". And by that i really mean, my second choice.
