"Go get us some tea, will you?" asked a young girl, sitting on a park bench.
"Yes, of course."
She walked down the cobblestone path, the click of her black shoes audible. As she approached a stand, flipping her long brown hair out of her face, she started whistling a soft, haunting tune.
Coming upon the stand, she looked at the menu, searching for the right item.
"Can I help you?" a teenage boy said, peering up from the supplies in a box that he's restocking. Her eyes trailed to his electric blue eyes, her tune being silenced by his stare.
"Can I help you?" he said again.
Shaken from her trance, she returned back to reality,
"3 iced green matchas, please..."
"Sure thing!" said the boy, energetically.
As he prepared the teas, she watched him; Making the tea in a Japanese press, an uncommon method. Her eyes trailed to his hands, chopping the tea leaves small enough to just drink themselves.
"Here you go," he handed her the plastic cups and a few straws.
She gave a thankful nod, taking the teas,
"Thank you..." she looked at his name tag on his apron, "Tamaki."
The boy blushed as she said his name, her returning the wine colour as it flushed her cheeks.
"You're welcome."
The girl flashed a smile and ran off, hurrying to the two other girls who were getting impatient.
"Where were you? Picking the tea leaves? Took you long enough." growled the older of the two girls.
"I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to take so long."
"Pull yourself together, Korri. Or I'll fire you. Now go inside. Naoko and I have important stuff to do."
Naoko nodded,
"That's right, Miyu-Chan!"
And with that, the girl with the long brown hair, walked inside the big house, listening to the click of her heels.
