☕Thank you for the 800th cup. Gentle time flows in Cafe Le Miracle today as well.

Recently, Ayappe's pace has been a little slow.

Between moving and the hustle and bustle of daily life,
I haven't been able to run at full speed like I used to.

Updates have become slower,
I've been popping back in casually,
and quietly reading comments.

Even so, in this cafe,
there are people waiting for me,
people reaching out to me,
and people reading quietly.

I am truly grateful for that.

I want this place to be a cafe where
you don't always have to be energetic and positive,
and you don't have to do your best every single day.

"I just want to sit quietly today"

A cafe where it's perfectly fine to be on days like that.

While spending time like that,
thanks to many wonderful customers,
I even received congratulations! Thank you 💗

I think I received about two more,
but I missed taking screenshots (￣▽￣;)
Things like that happen, right lol

☕Thank you for the 800 people.

――To the people who told me "It's okay to keep this cafe going"

Before I knew it, I had 800 followers.

To be honest,
rather than saying "Yes!"
I stared at the screen for a while,
thinking "...Wait, really?"

Because this cafe isn't a place
to try to go viral,
to try to give the right answer,
or to try to lead someone.

Even so, the reason I was able to come this far
is because there were people who quietly, and surely,
placed themselves here.

For the 800th cup, I'm not writing this as a flashy celebration,
but because I wanted to convey a "thank you"
that feels like a deep bow.

Thank you so much
for walking with me this far.

From here on out, too,
I will continue slowly and honestly,
without turning off the lights ☕

☕This cafe has all kinds of seats.

There are no assigned seats in this cafe.

There are lively tables,
seats by the window where you can spend time quietly,
and people at the counter who will simply listen to you.

And you know,
without saying a word,
there are also seats where people gently place their articles into the magazine.

Their voices aren't loud,
but their actions are warm.

Today,
I would like to introduce,
just a few of the people who sit in those seats.
