Cubis is always full of energy, but today he showed a different side of himself—patience. Dad had to step out for a quick errand, so Cubis found himself sitting at the little coffee shop where the two of them usually spend their mornings together. Instead of fussing or getting restless, Cubis settled into his seat, his big eyes glancing every now and then toward the door as if waiting for the moment Dad would return.
It was sweet watching him take everything in. The sounds of coffee cups clinking, the soft music in the background, and the warm smell of roasted beans surrounded him, yet his focus stayed on one thing: Dad coming back. Every time someone opened the door, his ears perked up and his little face lit with hope. When he realized it wasn’t Dad, he didn’t get upset—he just calmly went back to waiting.
People around the shop couldn’t help but notice him. Some smiled, others whispered about how adorable and well-behaved he was. A few even came up to say hello, but Cubis politely kept his attention divided, never forgetting the reason he was there. It was almost as if he understood that patience is part of love.
When Dad finally walked back through the door, the quiet patience instantly turned into pure joy. Cubis’s little body wiggled with excitement, and his eyes sparkled with relief. The wait was over. Dad bent down, scooped him up, and in that moment, all was right in Cubis’s world again.
This simple moment at the coffee shop was a beautiful reminder of loyalty and trust. Cubis didn’t doubt for a second that Dad would come back. He knew waiting would be worth it, and his calm little heart showed just how deep their bond runs. Sometimes the smallest acts—like sitting patiently for the one you love—are the truest expressions of devotion.
