YOU LET OUT A CONTENT SIGH. The taste of your favorite lollipop never ceases to make you happy. You could never imagine a better way to spend your day loitering around a flower shop.
"Do you work here?" Your eyes trail to the sudden interruption. 'Oh, it's just a random customer,' You think to yourself. Your eyes peer around the store, looking for someone in particular. When you don't spot the specific blonde, you return your gaze to the customer, "Yeah, I work here; you want to pay for those jasmines?" You gesture to the white flowers.
"Yeah..." The customer replies.
Your legs dangle as you lean over the counter to ring it on the cash register. "So, jasmines, huh? You must love this person, hmm?" You ask.
"It's for my sister.. she's been going through a lot lately, so I decided to buy these flowers to cheer her up," They respond.
"I'm sure she'll appreciate it, and that'll be 2300 yen," You read off the register, "Jasmines; are known to give good fortune and positive energy to their caretaker."
"Oh, really? No wonder my sister adores them so much."
You swish your lollipop in your mouth, taking the money from the customer and into the register. "Yup, and it strongly symbolizes unconditional and eternal love." You add on.
"You know a lot about flowers.." The customer says in awe.
"Well, the entomology of flowers happens to be a big passion of mine" You smile, "You take care now! I'll keep your sister in my thoughts and prayers!"
"Thanks!" You wave off the customer. You immediately wipe the smile from your face, lips pursing into a thin line. You came here to admire flowers, loiter, and bother Ino. Not assist random customers, and if you were honest, you didn't give a damn about that person's sister. However, speaking of Ino, where was the girl?
You let out a huff removing the slightly chewed lollipop from your mouth. The one person you used to stay occupied while off missions weren't even here. You tap your fingers against the counter, basking in the glory of being bored. Then, you stop seeing the light and dark blue colors in your peripherals.
You pick at the petals of the hydrangeas that sat next to you on the counter. 'The Yamanaka's always managed to grow the most beautiful looking flowers,' You think to yourself fondly.
Yamanaka Flowers. As in the name, the flower shop is; run by the Yamanaka Clan. Here also happened, one of your favorite go-to places. You were obsessed with anything that pertained to flowers. There was just this indescribable beauty to them that couldn't help but keep you infatuated; with them.
