Standing in-front of a coffee machine inside Himeko's room, holding a pillow in your left hand whilst your right hand rubs your right eye - was definetly not the way you'd like to spend the morning - not when it's been a grand total of ten minutes since you've woken up. Beside you stood Himeko, a warm smile on her face as she turned her head to the left to look at you.

"Already amazed by it, dear?" - she asks, as you continue looking at the machine - confused, and half-asleep.

With her smile unwavering, she slowly walks up to the coffee machine, and presses a few buttons. The machine then emits a whirring sound, followed by coffee beans being blended and then mixed with boiling water, before the dark liquid pours into the cup. However, Himeko was not done. Once the cup was full, she took it in her hand - surprisingly not burning her delicate hands - and walks up to the desk in her room and places the hot cup of coffee on the wooden surface. She then proceeds to take out a jar with coffee blend, and put a couple teaspoons of it into the coffee, making it even stronger.

She then picks the cup up again, before walking over to you and handing it to you, still with that same warm smile on her lips.

"There you go - drink up! It'll wake you up in no time, sweetheart."

Still half-asleep and not fully aware of what is going on, you just nod subtly, before lifting the cup to your lips and taking a sip.

Your eyes immediatly widen. The taste was so strong it was unbearable to drink. You want to spit it out onto the floor - but you don't want to upset Himeko. With no other choice, you swallow the hot liquid, it's lingering, strong taste all inside your mouth now.

With a scrunched expression on your face, you slowly look up at her - only to see that same smile on her face. Oh, if only she knew what kind of hell this was to drink...

"So? Do you like it? This is my favorite blend - I made it myself!" - she says with a chuckle.
