The Fourteenth Drabble: Coffee

"Hiro, you should try some of this coffee. It's actually sweet and not bitter."

Ayame glanced over at them and frowned. "Don't you dare give him that stuff," she stated casually. "Hiro is not allowed to drink anything darker than green tea—unless you want to put up with him on a caffeine high."

Hiro looked mildly unamused. Lillian laughed. "It can't be that bad."

"Ah! When did the sky get so blue?! Hey, hey, Lillian, wouldn't be astounding if it snowed in August?!"

Lillian rubbed her temples as Hiro prattled on and occasionally burst into laughter. Lesson learned.


Astounding. That's a Hiro word.
