Welcome to Gaia! ::

It has been a while since Leslie got hired at the flower shop, and honestly, he was growing more confident and comfortable doing his duties. He swept up, helped arrange, took out the garbage, all that kind of stuff. He didn't, however, deal with the register. That was something he just couldn't handle the pressure of, especially if more than two people were in the shop in line.

He tried it, and he's okay at it on slow days, but ultimately Leslie thought it best to let Aleksy handle the register and the money.

Today he grabbed the broom and dustpan to start sweeping up the clippings and whatever it was people tracked in.

Hopefully today would end up being a good day.

Leslie jumped when Aleksy started talking suddenly and then blinked. "Ah.. Should I clean the vases?" He asked then. Aleksy didn't want him cleaning the floors, which was odd, but he was the boss. "I'm just trying to make the shop look the best it can so we can be known as a clean shop." He honestly didn't know what kind of reputation the flower shop had, but Leslie was pretty sure it was positive. The small teen just ringed his hands together when he realized he actually had nothing to do.

"O-or I could take my break? I don't... know."

Babushkas? What did that even mean?

But, Leslie did as he was told. He wandered closer and moved to sit down by Aleksy and looked around nervously. Poor kid was probably going to go grey by the time he was twenty.

Green eyes flicked back to his boss once the other started talking and he nodded to confirm. He really did enjoy taking care of flowers.

"A gift?" Well, his mom told him he had a green thumb, but he didn't think too much about it. "I suppose...? I just.. I wouldn't call it a gift. More like luck, honestly." He wasn't even trying to be modest. "Mom says I have a green thumb and dad says I must be closer to nature to get plants to flourish. It's... I mean.. It's potted plants..?" He didn't think he could grow anything too exotic. Though, honestly, Leslie never tried to grow more than garden grade plants and vegetables.
