Tea Time

27 Tea Time My Aunt Susan is unusual to me. She is generous and kind, but best of all, she is funny. She always makes me laugh. Since her recent retirement, she has started drinking tea. She likes to discover all different kinds of tea. Green tea is her favourite. Each day, she drinks four or five cups. For her birthday this year, Mom gave her some new tea-tea from Africa. There were some words on the box: This tea is very good for your health. It will also make you more beautiful. Mom and Aunt Susan giggled. “ Tea that will make you beautiful? I didn't know that they grew tea like that, " said my aunt. “ I will drink some now. " Mom made a cup of tea for Aunt Susan. The tea was dark green. It had some pretty white flowers in it. Aunt Susan sipped her tea slowly. " This tastes really good, " she said. She drank some more. Then she looked at me and asked, “ Am I getting more beautiful?"

We laughed. My aunt is very beautiful. She does not need tea to make her beautiful. Aunt Susan had another drink of the tea. She smiled and asked me again, “ Am I getting more beautiful?" My aunt then said, “ Maybe it takes time to become beautiful. I will be patient and wait. " It was funny. I love my Aunt Susan. " You ARE beautiful, " I said. Aunt Susan smiled. “ Thank you, Joy, " she said. “ You are beautiful too. "
