Passing Flowers
"Cash it is!" she said as she looked at the flower he pointed at. A brief look of concentration crossed her face before she took a look at the young man and a smile graced her lips. She stepped around the counter and stood beside the flower. "This one?" she asked before grabbing it and returning to her place behind the counter. She handed it to him as she took the bill "consider it a thank you gift"
She placed the bill in the cash register and proceeded to count the change. āHereās your change, a total of $10.46ā she said as she placed the change into his palm.
"Take care of those flowers, ne~? Oh! and donāt forget to tell your friends about how awesome this place is!" She wasnāt the least bit embarrassed of her shameless advertising, and would use full advantage of that.Ā
"Uh..."
He scratched his head in a sheepish-gesture, looking to one side as he was graced with her smile. For one, Shika shouldn't be this embarrassed with a girl. He's not used to it. But at least, he was on the good side. Ladies are troublesome and he would rather not get into their bad side.
"Ah...yeah..." he answers in a while as he takes the change from her and nodded, thinking of who he'd call for and tell this place. His bestfriend, of course..but any other guys, he doesn't know if they'd be---ah, what gives. Telling them isn't going to harm him anyway.
Shika bows slightly and thanked the lady,
"Arigatou...for...helping and for this..." he said, pointing to the one flower she gave for free. It was nice.
"Thanks..."
"See you around, I guess?" he said, a bit low. Nodding once and turns, carrying the bouquet of flowers in his arms towards the store's door and leaving.
