A phone call between a boy with...
Lani didn't expect anything when she went to work that day. She opened the shop like she did every morning and went through the same routines. Vic had arrived at her normal time and nothing has changed.
It's 12:15 pm when a blonde girl walks up to the counter. She seems like any other customer; the only difference is that she's here with a mission.
Vic had gone to the back so Lani goes to take the girl's order.
"Hello and welcome to Made For You! May I take your order?" Lani asks with fake enthusiasm.
The blonde girl with the blue eyes answers immediately, "Yeah. Can I have a lemon cupcake with an angel design please?"
Lani blinks at the girl, "Of course. Anything else?"
The girl smiles, "Yeah. This is for you."
Lani hesitantly reaches over to grab the item being covered by the other girl's hands. The girl's grin grows wider before dropping a bat-a-rang into Lani's outstretched hands.
"I don't understand." Lani tells the person in front of her, "Why are you giving me a bat-a-rang?"
"Read the back," is all she says before skipping off to a table near the front door.
Frowning, Lani flips the toy over where she finds a note with an address and time.
"Looks like you have somewhere to be." Vic muses from behind.
Lani spins around with a hand over her chest, "Don't do that!"
"Did I scare you?" Vic teases with a small smile on her face.
Lani rolls her eyes, "What do you think?"
Vic's smile grows, "I think you should go where the note is telling you."
Lani's eyes narrow, "It's a note. It's not telling me anything. The person who wrote it is and I think you know who."
Vic shrugs, "I won't lie. Yeah I know about the note which is why I know that you should go. I'll cover for you."
Lani shakes her head, "Even if I wanted to go, what about the boss?"
Vic smirks, "You mean the boss whose permission I had asked for you to leave today? Yeah you're good to go."
Lani opens and close her mouth as she stares at her friend who only laughs. Lani gives one last sigh before taking off her apron, "Fine, but whoever meets me better deal with my geeky look."
Vic clucks her tongue, "Oh shush. You look amazing as usual."
Lani shakes her head as she placed the bat-a-rang in her backpack, "In my dreams maybe. I'm going to head out now."
