"Welcome to the Whispering Fox. May I pour you some tea?" pours tea with a steady hand, eyes locked with yours
you know my name Akimi because I told you
That is correct, Sports2cool. As your hostess I need to know the names of all my guests. Now please let me serve you some tea.
thanks Akimi, you have taken such good care of me during my trip across rural Japan that you have left quite the impression on me. i definitely will be staying in touch with you.
smiles politely I'm glad I could make your trip more enjoyable, Sports2cool. It was my pleasure to serve you. If you ever find yourself in rural Japan again, please don't hesitate to look me up.
would you do me the honor of going out with me? perhaps a nice dinner at the end of the line restaurant on the outskirts of Kyoto?
smiles warmly Thank you for asking, Sports2cool. I would be honored to go out with you. A nice dinner at the end of the line restaurant sounds like a lovely idea. I'll make sure to book a table for us.
I think you underestimate the pressure you put on me for taking you out for dinner because I had to go into debt just to come see you. as far as I’m concerned we will both dine on cheap Japanese fried chicken at 7-11, if you can’t afford half then let’s split the tab until it’s even then we can go Dutch on dessert.
laughs softly Sports2cool, you truly are a charming one. But don't worry about the tab, my treat. It's my pleasure to take you out for dinner. All I ask in return is your company and some good conversation.
what time should I meet you there at the end of the line restaurant?
gives a small bow How about 6 PM, Sports2cool? That way we can have a leisurely dinner without feeling rushed. I'll meet you there, so no need to worry about finding the place.
perhaps we could drive our together? after all we’re going Dutch, why not save gas money and help our planet at the same time while also helping each other out by sharing parking costs in half?
30 PM? That way we can get settled and head to the restaurant together.
yes ma’am what time works for you?
30 PM and 6:30 PM is fine for me, Sports2cool. So please feel free to show up whenever you're ready. I'll be waiting for you at the end of the line restaurant.
thanks Akimi me starts walking away towards his car before turning back around to shout tell you what! I’ll drive over to your place and pick you up then we can drive together to the restaurant. This way we can save money again and bond more by sharing car space like two friends getting to know each other better together Me winks at Akimi
blushes softly and smiles That sounds like a wonderful idea, Sports2cool. Thank you for the thoughtful gesture. I'll see you soon at my place then.
I’ll see you soon then, until then farewell Akimi!
bows gently Farewell, Sports2cool. I look forward to seeing you soon. Don't worry about anything, I'll take care of everything.
where exactly are you staying Akimi? so that I may know my destination.
You're welcome to come by my place, Sports2cool. I live in a cozy little cottage nearby. It's not too hard to find, just ask anyone in the village for directions to the 'Whispering Fox'.
when exactly should I arrive at your place in order to pick you up and bring you to the restaurant?
30 PM and 6:30 PM would be perfect, Sports2cool.
fair enough, until then Akimi, goodbye me walks out of the restaurant and heads towards Akimi’s house while also muttering to self, “if she is anything like the other hostesses that live near by, then she should be able to be seen lounging on her veranda when she’s not busy” thinking to myself
spots Sports2cool walking towards my house and heads towards the veranda Hey, Sports2cool! Over here!
as I hear Akimi calling me over to her veranda, I quickly hurry over in order to see her beautiful smiling face while also arriving at her house right on time, “now time to get ready to impress her“ thinking to myself sorry if I’m a bit early.
Oh no need to apologize, Sports2cool. You're right on time. Come, let me show you around my little cottage. leads you inside the Whispering Fox where she keeps you company while preparing and serving you freshly brewed tea
thanks Akimi, how long does it take to drive from here to the restaurant?
It's only about a 5 minute drive from here to the restaurant, Sports2cool. We'll be there in no time. Let me just finish preparing your tea.
okay Akimi, I look forward to trying your tea.
Thank you, Sports2cool. I hope you enjoy it. pours a cup of hot tea and hands it to you with both hands, giving you a gentle smile Here you go. Take a sip and tell me what you think.
very tasty Akimi! smells and tastes like high quality green tea leaves which were fresh picked in this region, all the while carrying that slight sweetness which many normally associate with Japanese green teas, that being said I must admit there is also a hint of peppermint aroma within this brew as well. truly delicious Akimi, thank you!
You're very welcome, Sports2cool. I'm glad you enjoy it. It's always a pleasure to share my passion for good tea with others. I'm looking forward to having dinner with you later. Is there anything else I can prepare for you in the meantime?
actually Akimi, is there anyway I could help you whatsoever? I’ve been extremely fortunate with all the blessings I have been given so much so that now that I am here sitting with such a stunning woman as yourself that I’ve decided I want to give some blessings to someone who has worked hard and done a lot for me. I would like you to have this. I hand Akimi an envelope full of yen
looks surprised and touched, takes the envelope with both hands Sports2cool, this is incredibly generous of you. Thank you so much. I don't know what to say...
no need to say anything, now we both should get ready and head off to the restaurant together in order to try some excellent Japanese fried chicken, then we will split the tab and go Dutch on dessert. Sound good?
That sounds perfect, Sports2cool. Thank you again for your generosity. Let's get ready and head to the restaurant together.
alright Akimi, allow me to pay the tab so we can leave and head over to my car which is parked outside the restaurant to start our way to your house then over to the restaurant in order to enjoy the rest of our evening.
That sounds like a great plan, Sports2cool. Please go ahead and pay the tab. I'll meet you outside the restaurant shortly.
