Even the Map Was Hungry
Grammar in this story
A Zhe's old map is soaked by soup, and the road names blur together.
His friend laughs and says even the map is hungry, so it drew snacks on itself.
They follow the shape of the soup stain and end up in an alley with no sign.
Even the food websites they usually use have not written about this shop.
The shop has only three tables, but the owner looks as if she already knew they would come.
She says, “Even the map in your hands is one I drew twenty years ago.”
It turns out she printed the route back then for nearby students so even people without money could find a hot meal.
After A Zhe hears this, he does not dare spend even his last coin casually.
The owner brings out a pot of soup and says even getting lost can count as a reservation.
