A Tale of Magic and Valour

The First Cup of Milk Tea in Autumn It's been half a month into autumn, and I still haven't had my first cup of milk tea!

I usually work from home most of the time. When I'm busy, I leave a note asking the delivery guy to hang the items on my door.

It used to be fine, but recently, my deliveries have started disappearing frequently. When I'm stressed at work, I like to drink some milk tea.

Today, my soy milk mochi was gone for the fifth time!

The first time my milk tea disappeared, I asked the delivery guy about it. He was very polite:

"Sir, please don't give me a bad review. Could it have been taken by someone else? I really did deliver it."

"If it's really a problem, I'll compensate you, but I did deliver it! I even took a photo!"

I felt bad for the delivery guy; it might have been an accident, so I let it go.

But then it kept happening. Frustrated, I installed a doorbell camera to see who was taking my much-needed milk tea!

The next day, I found the culprit.

It was a slender girl who had recently moved upstairs. She wore a baseball cap and, as she passed by my door, she casually took the milk tea hanging there, stuck in a straw, and started drinking it without hesitation.

Her movements were so smooth that anyone watching would think it was her own milk tea, without a hint of guilt.

I was furious... but then I calmed myself down, thinking maybe she needed a sugar boost and needed it urgently.

Maybe it wasn't her every time. So, I decided to forgive her this once.
