The young man felt this so he began to explain to her, saying: When I was a young boy, I used to live near the sea, I loved the sea and felt its salt, so I loved the salty coffee because it reminds me of my childhood and the most beautiful days of my life with my father, may God have mercy on them and make them spacious in paradise ..

Forty years have passed since their marriage, God passed away, after forty years of love and affection with his only companion, but just before his death when he felt the end was coming, he left his wife a message that reads: Forgive me, my beloved wife, I lied to you throughout our life only once, remember the first meeting between us In the cafe ? I was very confused and very shy, and I wanted to order sugar for my coffee, but because of my stress and my turmoil, I made a mistake and said salt instead of sugar, and I was reluctant to refrain from my words and had to continue this lie.
But I was afraid to tell you the truth after that so that you do not think that I am good at lying and you are afraid of me, and from that day I decided not to lie to you again at all, whatever the cost, but I decided to stay throughout my life to pay the price of my lie to you, I do not like salty coffee at all Its taste is very bad, but I drank salty coffee all my life with you and I never felt upset or sorry for my drinking it, because it is the reason for your presence with me with your compassionate heart and your wonderful love..If I had another life in this world I would live it with you even if I had to drink salty coffee In this second life .. the wife read the letter with tears streaming down on the paper, and one day her son asked her: My mother, what is the taste of salty coffee, and she replied: It is in my heart better than sugar, it is the memory of my life that has passed, and her eyes overflow with tears.
