One year has passed
since I started working as a volunteer waitress
once a week---
at a one-coin (100yen) café in the community.
The café is run only by volunteers, as I wrote before.
About 40 to 70 people a day come to this café.
Most of them are elderly persons.
Some live by themselves.
They all say they are thankful for this café.
They would stay at home all day but for this café.
They see other people, talk with them and laugh a lot
here in the café.
.
They say they are not lonely when they are
here in the café.
I say hello in a loud voice.
I smile at everybody.
I learn how to serve coffee, English tea
and Japanese tea.
I like washing dishes.
I am happy to work
as a volunteer waitress
in the community café.
