Aidan looked at the two young girls. He couldn't believe they were still in training... they seem so experienced at their art. He gave a smile and finished off his sake, placing the cup back on the table.

"Would...would you like some more sake Aidan-sama?" Mizu asked, internally scolding herself for stuttering. To a patron no less! When will I ever learn?? She had done this same thing before to her teachers and her Onee-sama, but to a patron...it was almost unforgivable. A personal crime...

"Please," Aidan said handing his cup to her. "Mizu-san, water... very nice. Water is so calming," he said leaning back with his eyes closed. "Don't you think?" he said looking back at the two girls.

Mizu could feel her cheeks heating as she poured the patron another cup of sake. "Yes Aidan-sama...and thank you. Very few people say that about my namesake to me."

"Yes it is, Aidan-san," Tora smiled. She too closed her eyes and pictured the beach with crashing waves.

Mizu Odoriko Mizu could feel her cheeks heating as she poured the patron another cup of sake. "Yes Aidan-sama...and thank you. Very few people say that about my namesake to me." "Realy?" Aidan asked shocked, drinking on the fresh cup of sake.

"Really Mizu?" Tora asked, remembering how she herself didn't relate the two and put them together. "I'm so sorry I didn't say something before."

Mizu inclined her head to them both with a sweet smile. "I haven't been at the teahouse for long, so Aidan-sama is the first patron to mention it," she confessed. "And well...I'm not sure why no one else mentions it...I think they probably assume someone already has and thinks that I'll get tired of hearing it!" She laughed. "And I don't think I ever would!"

Tora laughed. "I just don't know why I didn't think about it before." She drank some tea and felt her stomach rumble. "Oh, I'm hungry," she said flustured. "Mizu, how about you?" she asked her fellow Maiko. "Aidan-san?"

Mizu blushed herself as her own stomach made its complaints. "I am as well..."

"I'll get us some rice!" Tora waved at a maid and sent her to get fresh rice. "Um... deserts? Um... Mizu-chan...?" Tora pleaded with a "help" look in her eye toward Mizu.

"Desserts Aidan-sama?" A thoughtful look crossed Mizu's face. "I believe we could order mochi or something..."

"Sounds great!" Aidan said. He finished off his sake. "I think I should have tea now. I've drank enough sake for one evening."

"Okay," Tora replied. She got him a new cup and filled it with tea.
