The Pending Coffee We were in a small coffee shop when two customers arrived. “5 coffees. 2 for us, 3 pending.” They paid for 5, and only received 2. “What’s a pending coffee?” I asked. “Wait and see.” More customers came. Two others got their coffees and paid normally. After a while, 3 more came in, asked for 7 coffees, they only drank 3, but paid for 7. While we were talking, a homeless man entered the shop. With a soft voice he asked, “Do you have any pending coffee?” This type of charity was born in Napoli (Naples, Italy). People pay in anticipation for the coffees, and even meals, for others who can’t.
