Our corona diary.

[Text and photo by Anannya Uberoi]

I close my eyes in self-isolation from corona… and I see myself back in Sucre Salón de Té, a tall cup of English breakfast with a beckoning cat formed on its silicone lid, its raised hands gently coaxing me to smell the tea.

I greet the barista, some days in Spanish, some, in English. After a heartiful read, I visit San Jerónimo at sundown to say a passing prayer. I ring my family back in Delhi as I begin homewards.

I see my next day at work–fuller with the tea, the reading, and conversations of yesterday.
