Irene and Miyuki switched jobs. So Irene could have a break, and she finished off the portions while Amelia finished counting. She picked the basket up and brought it over to her, smiling. "This is the last of the tea leaves that are portioned."
Amelia counted that basket and smiled. She placed the last one in the basket and looked at the group. "We have four hundred and seventy-six tea portioned. Gabriel, we can either do a half batch or a full batch and get this done. That will be your call."
