Seren looked up at the girl and her eyes widened at the socks, “Oh uh yes! Sure, I’d love to! Thank you so much!” She said a little too excitedly. She smiled and stood up taking the socks in her arms and holding them close to her.

Aria smiled. "I'm Aria, by the way." She said, reaching out a hand to help the other girl up. "It's nice to meet you."

Seren smiled back and took Aria’s hand, “Nice to meet you, I’m Seren.”

Aria smiled, and tugged on her hand gently, leading her through the streets.

Seren followed after her, clutching the socks and occasionally stumbling but she always quickly regained her balance.

Aria led her into a coffee shop, and into the line. "So, what do you want to get?" She asked with a smile.

“I’m not sure…I’ve never had coffee before. What do you recommend?” Seren asked looking up at the menu.

"Hmm, well do you like cold drinks or warm drinks better?" Aria asked with a smile.

“Um cold ones.” Seren answered after thinking for a quick moment.

"Hm. A frappechino?" She suggested, raising her eyebrows at Seren a little.

"That sounds interesting, sure!" Seren replied clapping her hands together. Three days in the human world and she had already met a really nice girl got some cute socks and is trying a frappechino!

Aria smiled. "Alright. What flavor? Caramel, Chocolate, Strawberry?" She looked at Seren with a smile.

"Ooh! I've heard of chocolate! I've heard it's really good, so chocolate please." Seren replies.

Aria blinked in surprise, then smiled. "Yeah, sure."

Seren smiles, "Thanks. Also thanks again for those socks earlier, that was really nice of you."

Aria smiled. "You seemed pretty distraught, so…" They moved up in line.

"Um yeah, I had never ran into a place that doesn't accept sand dollars as a proper payment…" Seren sighed.

Aria raised a curious eyebrow. "…I see." She said after a moment.

"Can we sit outside or by the water when we get our coffees?" Seren asked, "I really love the ocean, it um feels like…home." She added the last part more quietly.

"Yeah, sure." He replied with a laugh.

"Awesome, thanks." Seren smiled happily and looked at the line, they were up next.

Aria smiled back. "You're welcome." She replied with a shrug.

Seren smiled fondly at Aria and began to think to herself, the ocean, how everyone was doing down there, why sand dollars weren't a proper payment…important questions like that..

Aria ordered for them, and then paid. She led the other girl over to wait for the drinks.

Seren followed her, watching the baristas begin to make the coffee.
