Halfway through dinner, Sophia brought out a bottle of homemade peach blossom wine to share with everyone. “This is our homemade peach blossom wine. It might not be as good as those collector wines, but it has its own unique flavor. Do give it a try!”

Everyone in the room got some, including Sam.

Holding the small glass of peach blossom wine in his hand, a familiar scent suddenly wafted past him and he couldn’t resist drinking the small glass of wine in one go.

The wine was fragrant. It was supposed to taste sweet, but Sam seemed to have tasted something bitter instead.

The bitterness was making him tear up. Covering the smell of the wine, he closed his eyes and tears rolled down his cheeks.

It was the Johnson Family’s secret peach blossom wine. Sam drank it once a long time ago.

At the time, his name was still Andrea Edwards. He remembered that there was also a small glass of homemade peach blossom wine in front of him. Annabel had opened it, and Cooper had poured it for him.

“Andrea, you’re not an adult yet, so you can’t drink. But, since it’s a happy day today, you can drink some in secret. I won’t tell your parents.”

He remembered tearing up from having tasted the burn of alcohol for the first time.

He did not think that he would get to drink it again over twenty years later.

 

Seeing Sam finish the drink in one go, Sophia hastily poured him more. “You’re good at holding your alcohol, Master Sam!”

She poured another full glass for him.

 

Sam wiped his tears away and said in a rather choked-up voice, “The wine is too strong; it’s making me tear up.”

She smiled. “This is our family’s secret recipe. You have to savor it slowly. It will definitely be too strong if you drink it at once.”

He lifted the glass again, and this time, he let the taste sink in.

Somehow, it was different each time he took a sip. It seemed like the wine he drank twenty years ago, but there was also a new flavor to it.

After he finished the second glass, he lifted the empty glass and Sophia automatically brought the bottle of wine to him and poured another full glass for him.

With the glass in his hand, he asked, “This is pretty good wine. Did you make it yourself?”
