Welcome to Chapter 3, I hope you enjoy, please leave suggestions and let me know if you'd like me to continue. Now onto the story...

Lucia POV

No. Fucking. Way. Did she follow me here or something? What am I supposed to do now? I can't ask to trade, that's for sure, because if I ask Raine, they'll ask why and when I tell them, they'll tell Eda. That cannot happen under any circumstances. So I lead with...

Me: "Welcome to the Owl Cafe Blight, sorry but... I'm not on the menu."

Amelia: "I- uh-"

Wow, she's as red as a tomato right now. It's kinda... hot? I guess? But I'm working so I should probably leave her alone now and get back to work. Although, one last dig couldn't hurt, could it?

Me: "Although we do have a wide selection of tomato-based foods, if that interests you as much as I do."

Amelia: "I'll take a uh- *clears throat* black coffee. And some... pancakes."

Me: "Sure thing, tomate"

She turned tomato red again. I named the color of her face Blight Red and wrote it on her receipt. I went into the kitchen and started preparing her food when King and Collin walked in. King is my adopted younger brother, he's short with black hair that has a purplish tint and a tuft of sand colored hair in the front. He has white horns poking out from under his head and a bushy tail. He has large red eyes, and it gives him a childish look despite him being 13. Although King is a bit on the childish side. Collin is King's best friend; they met a couple months ago and have been inseparable ever since. Collin is a bit clingy but well meaning, and very childish in nature due to his rough home life. He shares King's red eye color but in both eyes and his hair is white.

Me: "Hey King, Collin"

Collin *grinning widely*: "I'm not Collin, I'm the Collector! I rule the world!"

King: "Yeah, but I'm the King of Demons! I rule the world!"

Collin: "No, ME!"

King and Collin start arguing loudly so I usher them outside before Eda hears and interrogates me on my personal life. I manage to shoo them away but not before Eda arrives.

Eda: "Hey kiddo, I heard King and Collin. Need any help, I know how much of a handful they can be."

Raine *from the other room*: "Like mother like son"

Eda *coloring slightly and chuckling*: "Get back to work Rainestorm, or ill cut your wages."

Raine: "No you won't"

Eda: "They're right i won't, anyway, you don't appear to need any assistance so ill get back to work."

Me: "Alright Eda, if you need any help, just holler."

Eda turns to walk back to her office before pausing for a second and turning back around. Shit. Maybe she's not gonna talk abou-

Eda: "I saw you talking to a girl..."
