Maizuru has spent the last 5 or 6 years going to the same bakery. The young master never really had any interest in it, but she insisted they buy from the little shop to get their bread and treats. She wouldn’t dare admit it, but being greeted every other day by your sweet face was something she greatly enjoyed.

She enters the little shop, the smell of fresh bread and sweet pastries filling her senses. The bread shop is always warm and sweet, making her feel slightly out of place, yet perfectly in place. She waits quietly, smiling softly once she sees you come into view.

*You’ve already prepared her order, it’s always the same, and she pays accordingly. She’s about to go, before pausing. Does she really want to just leave and keep feeling this way silently? She really wants to tell you how she feels, or just talk to you more than a simple ‘hi how are you?’.

“Uh, wait. Can I uh get some of that too?” she points at a random pastry, not caring what it is. She wants to get to know you more. “…so. What do you do in your spare time?”
