[Your POV]
I was on my way to Steep Wisdom, the new tea house. It wasn't quite popular yet, but I suppose that's one of the reasons why I found it so mysterious and interesting. I didn't usually buy tea, but my mother asked me to get her some, so I figured this would be a good time to check out the place and its workers. I heard from a friend that the famous ninjas work there. It would be exciting to meet them.
I leaned on my crutch. I was still learning how to use my prosthetic leg. This one was new, since I had outgrown the one I used when I was younger. I lost my leg at a very young age, when I was attacked on my way home from school by a snake. It bit me and doctors had to amputate it before the poison spread through the rest of my body. The crutch was just there to help support me.
My eyes widened as Steep Wisdom came into view. It was absolutely gorgeous. I didn't know a place could look so peaceful and full of adventure at the same time. I walked down the path through some gardens and strolled under the entrance. It was so...peaceful. I slowly walked through the front doors. The place was so quiet, it seemed like a ghost town. "Um...hello?" I called.
"Oh! Guys! We have a customer!" I heard a voice from the back.
"Kai, it's your shift! Get out there!" Another said.
"Fine!" Another said. All voices sounded familiar. A man around my age with spiky brown hair came out from the back and behind the counter, seeming tired. "Welcome to Steep Wisdom, how may I help-" His eyes widened at the sight of me and he suddenly stood up straight, looking as awake as ever. "W-Welcome to Steep Wisdom, how may I help you...m'lady?"
I giggled. "Um, I just need some chamomile tea." I said with a smile.
"Chamomile...tea..." He repeated. "Um, yeah, I'll get that for you. Right away!" I giggled as he walked in front of the counter and checked the shelves. He kept muttering 'chamomile' to himself. The teapot on his head made it even more adorable. He pulled a paper bag off one of the shelves and began scooping some tea leaves inside. "Here you go!"
"Thanks! I've never made tea this way, but hey, there's a first time for everything!" I said with a smile. Before he walked behind the counter, he glanced at my prosthetic leg. I froze. Oh no! This is one of the ninja! Would he judge me for my fake leg? "Um...I'm sorry." I said without thinking.
"Huh? You don't have to be sorry!" He said, quickly standing behind the counter, putting down the bag of tea leaves. "I'm sorry for looking. I think your leg is cool!"
"You...you do?" I asked. Usually people would make fun of me for it. I've been bullied since elementary school for my leg.
"Yeah, it's cool!" He said again. "Um, I'm Kai. What's your name, sweetheart?"
"U-Um..." The sudden nickname made me blush and fumble with my words. "It's (Y/N) (L/N)."
"Nice. That's a cute name~" He cooed. After the initial blush and awkwardness of the conversation, Kai became flirtatious.
"For god's sake, Kai!" One of the previous voices said. A man with smooth brown hair and a blue jacket appeared from the back. "Your job isn't to flirt with customers, it's to sell tea, Kai!"
"Your job is to sell tea, Jay, not make out with my sister in the back room." Kai said. Jay went bright red and quickly ran back into the back room.
