Haru entered the teahouse very tired from his travels he'd even brought a small trinket for Ariku. He'd missed her since he left to hone his gift and now that his sinister younger brother seemed to be gone he worried less. EH took a seat in the corner of the tea house and sat leaning against the wall. he closed his eyes for a small rest.

Ariku smiled, happy to finally get back to work. It had been a while since she had been there. She gave a sigh of relief as she opened the door. She removed her shoes and got straight to work.
It was nice to be entertaining and serving again. It made her happy to see others happy. She looked out the window, the rays hit her face and lit up her light brown hair and golden eyes. She thought about how she had not seen Haru in soo long. She sighed...

Haru's body slid down the wall and he fell out of his chair which gave him a jolt and caused him to look around and see if anybody had seen him fall. Didn't wish to be called the town klutz.

Ariku twirled around as she heard the noise.
"Are you o..." Ariku's eyes widened. "...kay?"
She walked over to help him.
"Haru-kun?" she asked with a soft smile. "It's been soo long."

" I'm fine." his face turned a bit red as he got up from the floor and set himself back in his chair.
" Hai, it has been a while. Sorry for always leaving with out saying anything all the time." he gestured for her to join him with a warm smile even though he still felt a bit embarrassed about his falling out of the chair.
"But I haven't come back empty handed."
He pulled out 3 small boxes an a couple big flat boxes also and placed them on the table.
He'd bought her a new set of hair ornaments,a necklace, and a good luck charm made of jade to wear in her obi, along with 2 new kimono. He felt that she would like these things when he saw them on his travels.

Ariku sat down next to him. She looked at the boxes carefully opened them... Her eyes glowed and her jaw dropped as she looked at everything.
"Everything is soo beautiful. You know you didn't have to get me anything." she said with a smile. "Thank you."
She looked at everything again. She picked the charm up and held it tightly. Then she stuck it into her obi. She then stuck one of the ornaments in her hair. They were truly amazing. He treated her soo well. She was truly in debt to him for that. She leaned her head on his shoulder and smiled.
"Oh. Would you like me to get you something to eat or drink? It will be my treat. It is the least I can do." she said with a warm smile on her face.

He smiled and held her close. " I'm fine as long as you're here with me. I'm not really hungry."
His stomach growled in protest.
His face turned red seeing how this was the second time today he'd embarrassed himself in front of Ariku.

Ariku gave a big grin and giggled.
"Not hungry eh?" she said and stood up. "Hang on a sec. I'll go get you something."
She walked to the kitchen and got him rice, tea, and a bottle of sake. She returned and set down the food and drink.
"Here you go," she said pushing the bowl toward him. "Now would you like tea or sake?"

" tea is fine." He smiled
" So how have things been in town? I heard a few Okiya have been closed and the geisha and maiko that were still there forced to live somewhere else." His voice showed lots of worry. He hoped that Ariku and his childhood friend Yuri weren't in the groups forced to move.

Ariku got the tea pot and gracefuly poured some tea for them.
She took a sip and sighed as she gazed into the cup. She nodded.
"Things have been quite. Well, at least until recently. I think the town may become more active, like it used to be," she bit her lip. "but yes two of the Okiyas were shut down. Tsuchinobara and Kanenokikyo have both been put into the Camp. I was relieved that my Okiya was spared."
She placed the cup down.
"But enough about sad things," she said waving her hand. Then smiled. "Let's talk about your travels."

The door of the tea house gently slid open to reveal a young woman standing in it's doorways. Her eyes were looking down as strands of the silky red hair fell in front of her face. Two wooden knocks echoed in the hallway as she took off the platform wooden shoes and slipped in to a pair of red slippers that were laid out for guests and geisha that visited the tea house. The sound of silk sliding on the tatami mats slithered closer and closer to the main room. The always confident sapphire eyes glanced around the main room where geishas and patrons were sitting and enjoying each others company. It all seamed like such beautiful bliss as the scents of hot water, dried grass, jasmine, and vanilla filled her lungs.

Shagatsu took a sip of tea and put his cup back down on the table with a soft clink of porcelain on porcelain. He looked up and saw a woman clad in silk enter the teahouse. his lips broadened into a friendly smile.

At the end of the table she has noticed a handsome young man who had a charming smile on his lovely face, he had noticed her and was smiling that smile for her. Taking this gesture as an invite to come and speak to the friendly patron Josophine slowly and graceful floated over to sit across from him. "Would you mind some company, Monsieur" her gentle voice sounded like hundreds of silver wind chimes playing in a gentle spring breeze as she addressed him.

"Not at all Madame." he said, offering her a hand to sit. Shagatsu poured a cup of tea for the girl, the cup giving off small whisps of steam as he slid it towards her.
