The Ex-Heroine, Lovely Florist (2)

Miyu sat her table looking over her research notes, she had been studying the properties of the new plants that were not seen in the Modern world.

Standing up she touched a potted plant that only had dirt, but nothing happened. "Sure, enough I need to see and touch the flower physically in order for it to sprout." She whispered.

Awagre, is a flower that looks like coco beans. It is a rare flower, in said to be near extinct.

She turned the page and paused at something and kept thinking about it. She took out her phone and went to call Rachel, it rang for a long time. Miyu tilted her head in confusion when Rachel didn't pick up like she usually does.

"Elfin? Can You get me, Rachel?" She said lightly.

[Not, right now, No]

"You sound weird," Miyu said, Elfin's voice sounded somewhat distressed for whatever reason.

[Just wait and ask her another time]

"….." Miyu went quiet for a moment. "Elfin, the Moose Cane has a pigment in it used as a dye to make hair black. As well as a sugar for foods correct."

[Correct]

"Nevermind," she said quietly as she stood up, it was almost time to open shop. She bought some of her new Banquets out to the front. Before opening her doors.

It ended up being a busy morning. She usually had gotten commoner customers, but today she had a rather large number of male nobles come for some banquet. Once lunch came around, and a majority of the customers left Miyu sat in her looking over her notes and scratching her head, she had a plate of small grapes.

She heard the bell ring as someone walked into her store.

Piers Fitzlewis, is a knight Captain stationed at this small town, he comes from a humble family here. He's young, talented, and handsome. He took a fancy to Miyu, months before and has still been trying to court her to no luck.

Miyu lifted her head slightly and then went back to reading, ignoring the man.

Piers looked a little heartbroken as he went and looked at today's batch of flowers and herbs. And deiced to go for some tea herbs for his mother. It was his mother that first introduced him to this place, she had bought the tea herbs because they were the cheapest in the store and that they where said to be able to help sickly people.

Who knew that his mother would stop getting fevers in the middle of the night after drinking the tea for just one day. The more she used the tea the healthier she got. He picked up one of the tea bags up and went over to the counter.

"Just leaves and a small banquet of Keliots" Piers said as he put five bronze down and Miyu stood up to give him the Small Banquet of Keliots. "By the way, Miss Jenna, did you know that that rare plant is in the newly built botanic garden created by Lady Silliurd." He began to say hoping to score a date.

Miyu didn't look really interested as she took the money and went to sit back down.

"It's the rare, Awagre Flower" he baited, his eyes light up when he got her attention.

"Is it really?" Miyu asked her eyes also bright to see the flower.

"Yes," Piers smiled with a red face. "Shall I take you there tomorrow to see it?"

"Sure," Miyu said.

"Alright, I'll see you tomorrow morning." He walked calmly out of the store when Miyu said yes. Before he started to skip down the street. Humming a tone with dear joy, Well, I guess it can be said he did get the date he had always wanted.

The next morning, Miyu stared at the Piers blankly. He was wearing a fancy suit and his entire face was glittering. "Are you ready to go?" he held out his hand, so he could help her step into the carriage.

Miyu nodded as she took his hand, he then preceded to hum on all the way the entrance of the gardens.
