❗️This chapter is very inaccurate to the lore in GI.
'With a face like that.. it's impossible...' They all probably thought in unison.
Cale sweated, yet still wearing a stoic expression, "what's wrong..?"
"It's nothing.." Keaya was the first among the three to break silence. "If you don't want to attract a lot of attention... from your unique clothes... I know someone who owns a clothing boutique in Mondstadt, we can check it out if you want?"
"The clothing boutique in Mondstadt.. you mean the one Chiori recently opened?! You know Chiori?!" Paimon spoke loudly in surprise, practically shouting.
Keaya nodded. "Yes. If we're lucky enough, she might still be there working out her new store."
Paimon rubbed her palms together, "wow.. do you think she'll design an outfit for us as well?!" She said excitedly, anticipating things already.
"Isn't her honored rule first come first served?" Traveler asked.
Keaya smirked, "I think she might let us into her busy schedule this time."
"Ooo, I can't wait!" Paimon cheered. "Let's go there right now then!"
"Wait, Paimon! We haven't even gotten our food yet." Traveler reminded her.
Grumble...
"Ahh.. right.. Paimon was so excited she forgot Paimon was starving!" Paimon smiled awkwardly, scratching the back of her head.
The waiter shortly came in with all their food. "Sorry for the wait. Please, enjoy." They left quickly after placing them down.
"Oh, right, sorry Keaya, we didn't expect another guest coming, so we weren't able to get you anything." Traveler apologized.
"It's fine, I'm not hungry anyways." Keaya excused them.
Traveler nodded in understanding.
"Alright! Let's dig in!" Paimon hovered over the plates, almost drooling on them, "these skewers look so good!" She squealed.
"Don't forget to chew before swallowing." Traveler chuckled as they reminded her.
"I know that!" Paimon pouted.
Time passed as they finished eating.
Paimon sighed satisfying, leaning back onto the chair, "Paimon's full." She smiled brightly, rubbing her belly.
"Should we get going then?" Keaya suggested.
"I almost forgot!" Paimon suddenly bursted with energy again. "Thanks for reminding Paimon. Let's go then, Paimon can't wait any longer!" She tried pushing Traveler to go.
"Alright, Paimon." Traveler got up from their seat. "Are you ready, Cale?"
Cale nodded, "let's go."
Keaya smiled, "alright, I'll lead the way."
They exited the building.
"So, how do you know Chiori?" Traveler asked, curious.
Keaya looked at them. "My brother commissions her clothing often." He answered.
"So he's like a VIP." Paimon added.
Keaya smiled. "I guess so."
The group finally arrived in front of the bouquet.
Keaya opened the door for Cale, like a gentleman.
Paimon and Traveler watched, unbothered, already knowing what was going on in his head. 'He's definitely smitten by Cale.'
The two shortly went inside after them.
Ding!
The bell that hung on top of the door rang, signaling a new visitor.
They looked around the room, investigating and searching the whole place.
"Wow! This place feels so cool, it's like going outside in the fresh cut grass with the wind blowing into ur face!" Paimon squealed excitedly.
"It definitely feels new." Traveler added.
"Welcome, customers." A girl with a serious, piercing face walked in from the back. "What brings you here today?"
"Ms. Chiori." Keaya greeted her. "My new friend needs a new outfit, we're here to buy him some." He explained.
"Feel free to look around my boutique for anything that strikes him. I'm currently full at the moment, so I apologize." Chiori spoke.
"That's alright, we weren't planning for any tailored clothes yet." Keaya smiled, slyly. "I'll have my friend look around. Why don't I introduce you to him first?"
"What's he doing?" Paimon whispered to Traveler.
Traveler told Paimon to wait and see.
"Your friend? Make it quick, I still have work to finish." Chiori agreed.
Keaya pulled Cale to him, placing his hand on Cale's shoulder, "this is my friend, Cale Henituse." He spoke with a sparkle.
Chiori, once seemingly occupied, caught her attention onto something else. Her eyes widened, looking at the person in front of her.
