Brighton Kiosk

Pavillion Level, The Grand Parade, Brighton-Le-Sands NSW 2216

This was a special and memorable place.

In 2013, when my mother came to join my graduation ceremony, she was unsatisfied about me, kept saying she was disappointed and we argued a lot.

One day, we had a long walk from where I stayed, until we found this cafe with open windows to the sea. As I had only 5 dollars in my pocket, I ordered a small cup of cappuccino for her and told her things would getting better as I was still young and ambitious.

The weather was good and there was not so many people on the beach. The fresh air from the sea breezed in from the window where we sat in front of and she finished her cup of coffee not saying a word.

On our way home, she held my hand several times. Her palm was soft and warm.
