Word count : 528

Erina is pacing around , bringing lots of decoration in a box to put here and there. Cute stickers on the pots , tiny animal-miniatures hiding between pots and flowers, flowers hanging on the entrance; every part of the flower shop is colorful and inviting. On the other side of the room Reona carefully puts the plants and flowers in an arrangement where each color is organized into a group, turning the messy place into a pleasing view. As the bell chime indicating the time has come to open the flower shop Erina that had been decorating the door look around trying to assess if there's something they haven't prepared for yet, after being sure that everythings is in place she open the front door the fresh air enters, filling Erine lungs and gently brushing her face, her hair flowing following where the winds go before falling back as the morning air had filled the room. Erina move out the front door, her steps filled with excitement , her delicate hands opening the small gate and switching the sign to let everyone know the flower shop is open.


The busy morning seems to calm down as the girls sit and chat waiting for their customers sipping tea made from some flowers they had.


"I wonder what our first customer will buy. Do you think they'll buy the usual like roses or maybe something more uncommon like calla?"
Reona asked with a slight excitement in her voice as she leaned to the table and put down her cup of tea.


"I'm not sure , although I just hope it wouldn't be a rude one. That'll ruin this day that we've prepared for so long."


Erina answers and adds her own hopeful wish for a peaceful day, that's before a caterpillar decided to join in the morning tea by dropping from the table plant. The silence fills the room as Erina freezes for a moment looking at the caterpillar with slight disgust before standing up and taking a step back. The other noticed Erina's gaze, got curious and also looked where her gaze fell onto. Acknowledging Erina's dislike towards the little creature, Reona takes a piece of tissue from a nearby box of it before carefully taking the caterpillar off the table and out the window. Reona looks back to Erina holding her laugh at Erina's terrified face.


"I can't believe you're a florist with a fear for bugs." Reona holds her mouth as she try her hardest not to laugh at Erina's adorable terrified face from seeing a small caterpillar dropping on the table, it's as if she had just saw a bomb dropping instead of a caterpillar.


"It's not my fault bugs look disgusting and ugh" Erina blurted out with a frown, still shaken from the startling appearance of a single caterpillar. A soft ring comes unexpectedly from the bell as the door smoothly opens revealing not a human nor a but a black cute looking cat that gracefully steps its paw into the store's base. Its tail curved onto its back as it took another step inside without hesitation whatsoever, ears perked up as its eyes locked on Erina's tall figure.
