The Corner Cafe | Closed To Nepeta and Feferi

[drawntotheflame]

Kanaya walks in the shop around 8:00 Saturday morning. She has changed and is setting up the chairs when Nepeta comes in. "Hello," she calls.

Kanaya waits until she and Nepeta are both at the counter to broach the matter at hand. She fiddles with the coffee machine, unsure of how to start. Finally, she settles on: "I've been made aware of why the girl in here yesterday was behaving so strangely."

Did she want it? She really wasn’t so sure. The thought of having it brought a fresh wave of concern and her stomach flip flopped. She did suppose she should accept it, and maybe get to the bottom of things, though.

“I… Yeah. Thanks.” She pulled her phone from her back pocket and opened up a new message, then typed the number from Kanaya’s phone into the recipient box at the top. She looked at Kanaya, concern and apprehension clear on her face. “What do you think I should even say to her?”

"Hmmm." Kanaya rested her cheek on her fist. "Well, introductions would be a good start. And then... anything you're curious about. How she found you, perhaps?" She paused. "Are you interested in reciprocating her romantic intentions?"

She fiddled with one of her piercings, contemplating how to start the message after taking into consideration Kanaya’s suggestions. “I'm honestly really not so purr… I don't really know her.” Did Feferi real even like her? Maybe it was just all a ploy to get Nepeta to remember who she was, and nothing more than that.

She started typing.
:33 < hey, this is nepeta
:33 < and you're feferi..?
:33 < My coworker is furiends with the guy you were at the shop with, and he gave her your number to give to me

That seemed like as good a place to start as any, so she hit send, and put her phone back in her pocket. If she was lucky she wouldn't get a response while she was still at work.
