Husband Bob was "angry" when he heard what had happened and took Mrs Johnson for a coffee to calm her nerves, she said.

If I wanted to calm someone’s nerves, the last thing I would do is give them coffee.

Many neurodivergent people find caffeine very calming. I have ADHD and coffee is like calm down water for me.
