"Why the hell are you dragging me with you again?" Jaehee asks as Yushi was dragging his arms as they walked through the hallways of the headquarters.
"Because we're going to the potion shop and you're going to do all the talking for me." Yushi replies before flashing him an innocent smile.
"Why me?" The younger boy sighs as he accepted his fate by being Yushi's spokesman.
"I was trying to find Riku but he's probably hiding somewhere in the headquarters sleeping and slacking off. I don't have the patience to find him but then I saw you!" He says as Jaehee could just shake his head in disbelief.

"Why are we going there anyways? What do you need a potion for?" Jaehee and his unending questions just keeps generating as they tried to find the potion store somewhere amongst the headquarters.
"I'm going to make cookies and slip the potion inside it. For Anton and Evie, to help do something to their relationship. I came up with it during the summer, pretty smart aren't I hehe... I couldn't get any potions during the summer since the store owner was on holiday so the shop was closed." Yushi explains before he stops walking once they had arrived in front of the potion shop; Brewed Blessing's.

The two teenage guys entered the shop as the bell placed above the door ringed, indicating that a new customer had just entered.

"Welcome to Brewed Blessings. I'm Suzuki the alchemist that runs this place. If you need any help searching for a potion then please feel free to ask me." The store owner greeted as Jaehee and Yushi smiles at her shyly.
Yushi tugs on Jaehee's sleeves as he motions him to talk on behalf of him. Yushi didn't like talking to strangers.

"A-ah yes. Me and my friend are here to look at some potions. We aren't really sure of what potions we want so we're going to look around for a bit." Jaehee replies as the woman at the front nodded her head.

She looks down at their shirts as she sees a pin stuck to it. The specific pin implies which advisor they're under.

"Oh you two are Soren's kid." Suzuki stated as the two guys looked at her blankly.
"You know Soren?" Jaehee questions as the woman nodded her head a yes.
"I mean who doesn't? The whole headquarters practically knows him as Mr. Anderson's adoptive son. If Mr. Anderson ever decides to retire one day, he'd be second in charge of this whole place." She says as Yushi and Jaehee's jaws dropped.

Is he that special and powerful?? No wonder why the higher ups gave Soren a second chance when he committed a bad dead. They didn't want to lose him.

"Please don't tell Soren that we came to visit. I don't want him to know that I... kinda cheated a bit." Yushi decides to open his mouth and spoke quietly.
"Of course not, secret's safe with me." Suzuki stated as she had a finger over her mouth.
"Anyways, I'll let you two kids look around for a bit." She then says as Yushi and Jaehee started to wonder around the whole shop.

The potion shop looked so small from the outside, but once they've entered it was huge. Every shelf had dozens of potions all aligned next to each other with labels stuck to them.

"Ok let's see... which potions do I want." Yushi mumbles as he went into the aisle that held all the love potions. He didn't know where Jaehee had wondered off too. Probably inspecting every jar so he could study about them later.

"Heart's Elixir, Sweetheart Serenade, Eternal Embrace, Enchanted Infusion.... Aha! Desires Draught." Yushi's eyes widening once he sees the perfect potion.
"I might as well get the previous four as well for keepers sakes." He said and held onto the five potions in his arms. They were pretty small so it wasn't hard to hold.

Yushi then goes to the front as he places all the potions down on the counter before smiling sheepishly at Suzuki.

"My, my, you've got a lot up your sleeves haven't you." She said and started scanning them.

"Miss Suzuki!" Jaehee calls out as he finally arrived at the front as Yushi was met with him again.
"Yes, what's the matter?" She replies before putting the money that Yushi had given her inside the cash register.
"There's a whole shelf filled with memory erasing potions. Do they actually work?" Jaehee asks her.

The two guys could see a small pout appear on Suzuki's face.

"Of course they do. I started selling them after Soren begged me to make a potion that could erase Violet's memories. Because of him not only did I lose my best friend in the headquarters but she as well doesn't even remember me." The woman replies before clicking her tongue in annoyance.
"So you hate Soren?" Yushi says as he places the potions inside his bag.

"Hate him? No I have no hatred for him. It was clear that those two loved each other, she even found a side of him that no one else had seen before. I'm just mad at the higher ups for creating this stupid rule. I hope when Soren takes over, he could abolish this rule." Suzuki tells them.
"If you're mad that she doesn't remember you, why don't you just try to make some new memories with miss Violet. That's what Soren is doing." Yushi stated as Suzuki looks at him peculiarly.
"Soren knows where Violet is? I've always thought that after the two of them broke up, he stopped caring."

"Yushi that was supposed to be a secret!" Jaehee tells him off as Yushi covers his mouth when he realises that he slipped up.
"Oh yeah sorry, I forgot." He apologises.
"Um anyways, we'd be heading off now." Jaehee quickly says as the two of them were about to leave the shop when Suzuki stopped them.
"Wait- please tell me where Violet is." She says desperately.

"She works at a flower shop called natsukashii memories downtown. Anyways, thanks for the potion. If they don't work then I want a refund." Was all Yushi said before the two guys exited the shop.
