I'm programming us a couple of spinach smoothies I'll pass. For the rest of my natural life.Just what you need, he insisted, tapped buttons manually. And came out with two cups of coffee.
In the excerpt from "Obsession in Death" by J.D. Robb, a character humorously rejects the idea of consuming spinach smoothies, suggesting a strong preference for coffee instead. This highlights a lighthearted banter between the characters, showcasing individual tastes and preferences in a playful manner. The mention of "the rest of my natural life" emphasizes the character's determination not to indulge in something they dislike.
Another character, who appears insistent, manually programs a coffee machine, demonstrating their eagerness to provide a beverage that is more agreeable to the other. This interaction reflects the dynamic between the characters, illustrating a sense of camaraderie while also underlining their different attitudes toward food and drink.
