Her sister: Why do you consider it as an insult?

She: My skin-colour is dark and I'm skinny, but does it give them the licence to call me "Black Coffee"?
Her sister: A simple Google search shows the advantages of Black Coffee.

She: You're right!

Her sister: Always see the positive story!

She: I'll name the book of my life's story - "Trustworthy Black Coffee". 

Her sister: Great! Chapters?

She: Origin, Ground, Watered, Filtered, Boiled, Timed, Sweetened

Her sister: Sounds like a rich coffee! Waiting to read the first draft!
