B1 B2 English Story Living by the Sea Tina lived in a small but perfectly formed house near the sea.
7
She had a difficult but fulfilling job as a therapist,
8
where she listened to others and helped them feel better.
9
But Tina wanted to do more,
10
so every Saturday she worked at a little cafe by the beach.
11
Tina's cosy house was filled with memories of her parents,
12
who had sadly passed away in a car accident when she was a teenager.
13
Even though she lived alone,
14
she was never lonely, because her brother and friends were always close by.
15
She liked to start her day with a cup of tea,
16
looking out of her window at the sea.
17
She thanked her lucky stars that she had such a lovely home.
18
She had two jobs and worked hard to be able to afford it.
19
As a child, she never thought she'd be able to live in a house that had a sea view.
20
After she had her tea,
21
she had a shower and ate her breakfast while she looked through her diary for the day.
22
She liked to make sure she was prepared and knew which clients she would see.
23
As a therapist, Tina spent most of her week helping people.
24
Some people came to her because they felt sad,
25
while others needed someone to talk to when things were tough.
26
Tina was like a friendly guide,
27
helping them find their way through difficult feelings.
28
She had a little office with comfortable chairs where her clients could share their thoughts and worries in confidence.

On Saturdays, Tina's routine was different.

She would put on a bright apron and head to the Seaside Cafe.

32
and the air was filled with the yummy smell of tea and cakes.
33
Tina enjoyed talking to the regulars and meeting new people.
34
She took orders, served tea and coffee and made sure everyone felt welcome with a friendly smile.
35
Sometimes when the cafe wasn't too busy,
36
Tina would take a moment to sit by the window.
37
She loved watching the waves roll in and out.
38
The sound of seagulls flying by made her feel content.
39
The cafe was like a little hub of happiness by the sea.
40
She liked to work there,
41
not only to earn extra money,
42
but to release some of the tension of the week and to meet new people.
43
She also loved to make drinks and sandwiches for people.
44
She found it relaxing.
45
In the evenings, Tina liked to go for a walk along the beach.
46
The sand felt soft beneath her feet and the sound of the waves was calming.
47
She often strolled with her brother who was a fisherman.
48
They shared stories of their childhood as they walked.
49
Her brother's wife was expecting a baby and Tina was excited to have a new addition in the family.
50
Tina's friends were an important part of her life.
51
On some weekends, they gathered at her house for dinner and games.
52
They talked about their weeks,
53
shared jokes and enjoyed delicious meals.
54
Tina loved creating a warm and inviting space for her friends.
55
On special occasions and when the weather was nice enough,
56
Tina and her friends would enjoy picnics at the beach.
57
They'd bring blankets, sandwiches and games.
58
The pebbled beach became a playground of laughter and joy.
59
Tina loved these moments and being surrounded by the people she cared about.
60
Even though Tina missed her parents every day,
61
the sea and her friends brought comfort and joy to her heart.
62
Each day was like a new chapter in her seaside story,
63
filled with simple joys, lasting friendships and the never-ending magic of the sea.
