Cafe Coffee Day

So we are tucked away here in Sikka Colony, right near the Balvikas School. It’s Hno. 659, A/12 if you’re looking for the exact spot on the map. Cafe Coffee Day is just a place where folks from Sonipat end up when they need to sit down for a bit. It’s not anything too fancy, just some chairs, tables, and the smell of coffee that stays in your clothes all day. Most mornings start with us getting the machines warmed up before the school bell rings. You see the parents dropping kids off and then maybe a few of them wander in here for a quick cup. The floor gets a bit dusty because of the road outside, but we sweep it often enough. We’ve got the usual stuff on the menu, nothing you haven't seen before if you've been to one of these before. It gets busy in the afternoons when the older students come by to talk or do homework. Sometimes the power goes out, that’s just how it is in Haryana, but we have the backup ready so the AC doesn't stay off for too long. It’s a decent place to work, honestly. We know most of the regulars by now, and they know where the sugar is kept so they don't even ask anymore. Just a simple shop in a busy neighborhood, really. We like it here.
