"Hello." Miyu stared up in shock at the tall, buff man who was wearing an apron. She had no idea what to think of him. "I am Tessai."
"…Miyu…" She shivered as he eyed her neck, more likely the red crystal.
"Welcome Ms. Miyu." He nodded. "Come sit. I'll get you some tea." He paused. "Are you hungry?"
She shivered thinking of how long it had been since she'd eaten a good meal. Szyael had given her some dirty and stiff bread while she had been in Huco Mundo. "Yes… please."
Tessai smiled and left. She looked over as Kisuke sat at the table and motioned for her to sit.
"I… uhh…"
"Don't worry, I don't bite." He smiled, but it only made Miyu more nervous.
She cautiously sat across the table from him. She noticed him eying her crystal and shivered. "You knew my mom?"
"We can talk about that later. You need food and rest. We can talk later. And don't worry you'll be safe here."
Miyu wanted to yell out she needed answers, but was stopped by Tessai and Ururu coming in. they set down tea and some small sandwiches. Miyu looked at them and watched Kisuke eat and drink. She took one and ate. It was surprisingly good. She took a sip of the tea and felt herself relax.
They ate in silence and then Ururu led her to a small room. Miyu didn't complain. She was too overcome by weariness. She curled up and fell asleep.
