Ploy showed them green beans and explained the of roasting. When the roaster started, the children covered their noses . One girl said the smell was , but a boy said it smelled , like toast. Children cannot drink coffee, so Mint made them cocoa. Grandma Bua told them a story about the lane in the old days, when there was no . The children listened . Ben taught them a few English words, and they repeated them . Afterwards, each child drew a picture of the café . The pictures were but full of life, and Ploy hung them on the wall. The teacher said that the visit had been for the children. Ploy thought it had been for her too. She remembered her own in this lane, long ago. Perhaps one of these children would grow up to be a and tell the story of the café.
