Tommy was sick of Karen's at the Café. He just wanted a nice relaxing day at work, with a slow amount of customers. But no! That couldn't happen because the universe insisted on fucking with him! He had just finished serving the last customer of the lunch rush. There were still some customers coming for passes to the upstairs internet café but not many would stay on the first floor.
I sighed in relief, leaning heavily into the counter as I relaxed slightly. Catching a break for a few minutes I made myself a Ristretto. A Ristretto is similar to an Espresso but with more caffeine.
I had just finished making my drink when the bell on the door chimed and two people walked in. As soon as they walked in I groaned internally, recognizing the feeling of an incoming flashback.
Accepting my fate I felt myself drift away as a scene started to form and play around me.
"Techno! My man! Do you think you could teach me some sword fighting techniques?" Flashback me asked a tall pink haired guy. His hair was long and braided neatly behind him.
"No Tommy, remember what happened last time you asked me to teach you fencing?" He drawled, looking down at me. Scowling I roll my eyes.
"That was an accident! I didn't mean to get the sword stuck in the roof!" I attempted to defend myself but that only resulted in Techno snorting. "Hey!? Don't laugh at me!" I screeched.
"Sorry, it's just-" He broke off laughing again. "It's just, you managed to get a sword stuck in the ceiling, twelve feet above us!" He laughed out, wiping an imaginary tear from his eye. Scowling more, I cross my arms and look away.
"Relax Theseus, eventually. I'll teach you with adult supervision." He says, reassuring me while he ruffles my hair.
"But Techno!" I whine, leaning against him. "You are an adult" He laughs
"A more adult-like adult." He settles on saying. Sticking out my tongue I swiped his sword from his belt and bolted away.
"Tommy! Get back here right now you gremlin!" I laugh as he chases me through the house, both of us smiling. We were only stopped when I ran into someone. He was a bit shorter than Techno and me but he looked a lot like me. He had blue eyes and blond hair. He looked like a dad, heh, if not dad why dad shaped?
Laughing I hid behind him. " Dad! Techno is Bullying me!" I say, pointing an accusing finger at the older. Techno sputters in annoyance.
"I'm the one Bullying you!/ You stole my sword when I said I wouldn't teach you fencing! Phil! That child is mocking me!" He complains. The newly named Phil sighs good naturedly.
"Tommy, Techno, stop fighting with your Brother. Who knew you two would be such a handful even without Wilbur here." As though just summoned, the door was kicked open and in strode Wilbur.
"I heard my name! Were you guys missing me?" He asked, wrapping me and Techno in a hug, both of us cringing and trying to escape. Phil just stood back and watched as me and my brothers argued. Is this what it feels like to have a family who cares for you?
Snapping back to reality I cleared my throat and took a sip from my coffee. When the two stepped to the counter I looked up at them, noting the older blond and the tall pink haired one.
