I greedily grab the warm cup in both hands and bring it to my mouth, letting out a satisfied moan as the sweet hot liquid hits my tongue. “Damn babe, what's in that cup?” Theo laughs. “I'm sorry, I didn't know your order so I played it safe with a caramel latte. I’m Luke Weston,” “Hi Luke, I’m Josie. Where did you get this? Dot said there's only filter coffee,”

Melainy took a seat and the two of them squeezed around a small white table. “I am actually a tea person…but…” Before Vincent completed his sentence Melainy smiled back, “No worries! We have local tea too! With or without milk?” “With milk, less sugar.” “That’s called Teh C Siew Dai here. Teh - C - Siew - Dai.” As Melainy repeated each word a bit extravagantly, Vincent appreciated her rosy lips making different shapes. Her teeth are neat and pearly white. Melainy soon carried a small tray back.

“And I see you’ve brought a friend.” “Friends, actually.” He pointed under the table. “This is Celeste, and her helper dog Teuf.” “Teff?” Momma said. “Teuf.” Celeste grinned. “Kind of like tooth but with an F. It’s short for Teufelhunden.” “Ohh…” Momma looked under the table and saw Teuf lying by their feet. “Aren’t you adorable?” She looked at Celeste. “Does he like lamb?”

“Oh, God. Don’t get him started.” “Too late,” both Roman and I muttered at the same time. He shared a smile with me briefly, then turned back to his tablet. Instead of sitting at the head of the outdoor table, Joemar pulled the chair over next to me and kissed me on the cheek. “Don’t listen to him. A ristretto is just an espresso dialed up to eleven.” “You will not push my buttons this morning,” Joemar muttered. “But it’s so easy.”

She replied. The waitress came back and brought a bowl of water for Teuf. “I’m Brandy, I’ll bring you another bottle of water for your fur friend.” “You have a friend for life.” Celeste smiled. “This mudslide…?” she pointed to the chocolate drink topped with ice cream and small chocolate curls. “Absolutely delicious.” Brandy smiled. “If you’re planning on having dessert, I recommend the triple chocolate cake with strawberries.” “Sold. Heavy on the Kailua, please.” Celeste smiled at her companion. “Electra?”

Ted understood his meaning and quickly said, “I’ll order it right away Mr. Carlos.” But however Augustus stopped him and waved the waiter to come over, “I want a huge sea food platter, make it spicy and also I heard that you have just received Bluefin Tuna from Tokyo today, I want that too, give me the largest potion.” He paused, looked at Ted’s face being darkened he curved his lips and then continued, “Also bring us two boxes of 1982 Lafite.” He ordered generously. Waiter nervously looked at Ted, The things Augustus has ordered are very expensive, and he was clearly showing off his power. Ted had no choice but to nod his head. Waiter left hurriedly.

" My name is Isaac Carter, I'm a healer, it's okay to drink." He brought the glass to my lips and I drank the liquid, it didn't taste like anything, but I knew it wasn't water, and deep inside I could taste something a little sweet. " What is it?" "Zarpini. It's a tea with the Zarpini plant to calm your stomach," he answered, and his gaze fell on the vomit on the floor." Don't worry, I'll have someone come to clean it up, soon your stomach will calm down.

After that, they both gave the menus to the female server while Dennis and his sister are still deciding which one they would order. "I'll have the main entrée of menu E which is the salmon and for my dessert, I'll have the one from menu M, the one with Cerveza ice cream. What is this Cerveza, it's my first time hearing about this word" asked Shane who is pointing at the dessert in the pamphlet.

“Tea or tuica?” “Tea," I say as I sit on a wooden chair. "I’ll descend before the sun goes down and I’m driving.” “You can leave tomorrow.” “Tomorrow night is a full moon, and I have to be with my pack.” “You have the time to get there if you leave straight to the meeting grounds.” It’s hard to refuse him when he wants something. Finally, I give in. “Tuica then.” He nods, smiling, and I watch him preparing it. Black peppercorns drop into the boiling alcohol. Solely the smell of the concoction makes me dizzy.
