“come on, really?” shiah purses up her lips, rolling the metallic cat head over and around in her hands, scouting for any mistakes she might have made, but there are none; it looks really good, shiah thinks, so she has no idea why the waitress doesn’t like the decoration she created for the place.
“but it brings luck!” she tries another approach, flashing her brightest smile at the girl while shaking the cat right in front of her. “by the way, you’re super pretty,” she quickly adds, hoping that a – perfectly honest, in fact – compliment would sway the girl’s opinion and she wouldn’t have to bring the decoration back to the workshop if she already came so far.
