it's a little cliche to say but aera still felt like those words rang true— it isn't everyday that she gets to spend so leisurely with a friend like she did with kyunji, even more so just sitting on a cafe and having one of her favorite matcha beverages while simply chatting about every and anything. usually she's either busy with work or doing something a little more activity heavy to occupy her mind (i.e. trying to put sweaters on every cat near the deck or crocheting her next projects while watching something on tv). it's definitely a refreshing change of pace, one that aera is more thankful for than she probably realizes.
"me too!" the nurse answers just as excitedly, more than happy that kyunji also liked their time spent together, trying to swallow down the sudden wave of affection she feels when kyunji says that he meant what he said, he really did, even if that still slips through her cracks all the way to a smile that tugs at the corner of her lips. "you know i love to hear about your babies." his plants is what she means, but they both treat their own gardens as their children so babies seem much more like an appropriate term. "talking about them! have you tried out this new fertilizer they're selling at lemon martes? i've heard it's good but i'm still a little scared of trying it out."
