When we run out of coffee we remember our closest family members

An oversight happens to anyone and I did not notice that I had run out of coffee supplies after receiving some visitors, when I checked to have a cup of coffee it turns out that my husband had heated what was left and there was not even a little finger of coffee for me.
He was confident that there was another packet and I was confident of the same and when we came to have a coffee in the house, while we were talking, we realized that the last packet of a brand that I liked very much had run out, and in Venezuela we have the habit of offering coffee to everyone who comes to our house and in the blink of an eye it ran out.
The problem was not that, but because of the time, the nearby supermarkets were already closed, and bothering or stressing out was not going to solve anything. My mother always said not to bother the neighbor asking for anything, that if you didn't have something, then you didn't have it, you had to solve it.
But, luckily for me, my younger brother, he is the youngest of the boys, but he is older than me by 10 years or so, lives in the building next to mine, that is, I just cross the street and we meet.
My brother lives on the first floor, just like me, at the same address, we can see each other from window to window, but we are separated by an avenue. So I took the opportunity to bring him some rice pudding I had made and told him to make some coffee because I had run out.
So I took the opportunity to pay them a quick visit, where we updated family information, had coffee and visited my new niece, who is not yet one month old.
Apparently, this will be the last member of the Marin family, because my other siblings have already closed the factory, as we say here in Venezuela. So this is the aunt's spoiled little princess.
The funny thing about this is that sometimes I thought I would have liked to have a girl, but in reality I asked God for three boys, very planned, each one 7 years apart from the other. Roger David is 21 years old, Daniel Alejandro is 14 years old and Diego Alejandro is 7 years old, so it would be appropriate to have a baby, to have it on this date, but my factory is already closed.
So God sent me just 7 years later a little princess, who although she was not in my womb, I am very fond of her, it is as if I had rented a womb, ha, ha, ha, ha. So all of us in the house are very fond of her and although we did not have a female as a daughter, we have her as a niece.
So this visit served to have two cups of coffee and spoil the niece, also share with my sister-in-law and brother, who although they live so close, often last more than a week without seeing each other, because everyone focuses on their family and their things and so the days go by.
So fate decided that I had to run out of coffee to go visit my brother ha, ha, ha, ha. He does the same, so we are on hand, so it is always good to have a family member close by for such emergencies.
