Present day

I'm currently assisting and accompanying Diluc in his daily duties. Paperwork, Politics the whole shebang. we have to head into Mondstat to deliver and sell wine. Our original people got sick. Our route was planned as so, we would head on the northern path to Mondstat at 9:00 by carriage so we could be there by 3:00 when the market livens up.

I prepare the carriage while Diluc packs his bags in his quarters. I feed and water the horse generously for our long trip ahead. I install the carriage and place my cargo in the seat. I start loading the wine carefully into the padded trunk. We plan to sell this at a kiosk. the original people Diluc picked were meant to do that too so now it falls on us to set up the kiosk. I tie the foldable kiosk to the roof as Diluc walks toward me.

"May I drive today?" Diluc asks while gesturing to the horse. "No no I'm sorry Sir but that would be far too much trouble for you I'll be taking these reigns today," I say while getting up onto the horse. Diluc enters the carriage upset that he can't sway stubborn old me.

We gallop over to Mondstat shortly and load off the wine to Angels Share. I wipe the sweat from my brow as I gaze over to Diluc staring at my sunkissed skin. He abruptly stands up and walks into the tavern to grab something. He comes back out with a hat and places it on my head as he unloads the kiosk. I help him take it over to the marketplace and set it up.

We get the odd customer here and there for the first fue hours untill a little blond girl and acting grand master Jean comes up to us. "We would like one lemon spritzer and one apple juice please," The Grand Master says. "Coming right up," Diluc says as I return with a lemon Spritzer and apple juice. "Are you two dating?" the little girl asks. My face turns red as I stumble on my words trying to tell her otherwise. Diluc lets out a small chuckle.

Time seems to freeze as I take in this rare occasion. Diluc's eyes squinted, hand covering his mouth slightly as he lets out a smile. I think to myself 'Damn how is this man still single? rich and handsome? He's got it all.'

"Klee!? Don't ask someone about their relationship status!" The grandmaster scolded her adoptive child. "I apologize deeply for her actions please forgive me!" she says. "No harm no foul," I say cheerfully "I didn't mind it much," Diluc says blatantly. "Thank you, Mr and Mx wine people!" Klee says as she and Jean walk away

We continue selling wine by the bushels at the kiosk nearly selling our whole stock in a day! There's this one person who is persistant on buying one more dandilion wine but his wife tells him otherwise. More of scolds him. We head back to the tavern and prepare for the night shift.
