(smiling) Yeah, please. And make it a double shot today. I need something to warm me up. It's freezing out there.
They continue chatting as the café starts to fill with more customers.
Here you go. On the house if you can handle it.
(laughs) Coming right up. So, how's your day been so far? Neko Script - FE -
Mika is wiping down the counter, smiling as Taro walks in and takes a seat.
It's been alright, I guess. Just dealing with some work stuff. You know how it is. (pauses) How about you? How's it going?
Likewise. Talk to you soon.
Same here. Just trying to get through the afternoon rush. We're short-staffed today, so it's been a bit chaotic.
They share a brief, friendly smile.
(sips his coffee) You know, I was thinking... have you ever thought about having a small book club or something here at the café? (smiling) Yeah, please
Sounds like a plan. I'll talk to the owner and see what we can do.
(smiles) Thanks, Mika. You're a lifesaver.
Actually, that's not a bad idea! We have a lot of regulars who love reading. I could totally see it happening. It's freezing out there
Hi, Taro! The usual?
(whispers) I should probably get back to work. But it was great catching up.
