“The strawberry? No, no, I always get that... maybe apricot this time? Coconut? Cappuccino is too much for me... Almond? Rhubarb? Or something that’s... No, no, now I’m taking too long, and I should--”

He’s muttering to himself, fingers resting delicately on his chin, before he turns to offer a sincere apology to whomever was approaching the line behind him for his own indecisiveness--only to find that it was a face he knew, and one he hadn’t seen in a good while to boot.

“Oh! Akoya? It’s you!” Kaito’s smile immediately broadens significantly, and there’s a clear tone of happiness in his voice as he speaks. “I haven’t seen you in a while! Are you doing alright?”

“Do you think you look like the flowers, or do the flowers look like you?”

What's a suitable Christmas gift for a gardener? Why, a fir bonsai, of course! It's decorated like a Christmas tree, complete with a little star on top. There's a note tied around the trunk with twine: "In case the bonsai you received for your birthday needs a companion. Merry Christmas, Arima-san. - Akoya ❤"

“It certainly does...” he answers the note aloud.

He checks the soil and is pleased to find it damp.  It will look nice in one of the east windows, to ensure it gets plenty of sun and air.

          “...It seems you’re doing well, Akoya.” There was no mistaking the appearance of the other (this time, for real). Despite the relief Kusatsu felt knowing both other members of the student council were here as well, he did his best not to show it. 

          “...That’s good to know.”
