Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Aunt Akane stood there quiet.

"I believe he is out there. I know he is; I know he strong."Akane stated.

Jennifer placed the coffee on the counter and cried out for the owner.

"I understand, but if he does show ups. ."Jennifer mumbled.

Akane smiled at Jenifer as the door opened. A boy walked in his ears were perked up in the air, brown hair, baby blue eye, pale skin.

"Oh, hello Ross, where were you?"Akane asked.

"Just getting a breath of fresh air," Ross stated.

Ross started to wagged his tail. Akane places an apple on Ross's head. Ross grabbed the apple, he sat down and ate it. Akane patted Ross's head, giving him a gentle smile. Ross smiled back as he bit into the fruit. Akane have worked on another order for customers. Ross finished his apple, threw it away. Ross turned to stare at his siblings. Jennifer noticed his stare, which brought her to a cold sweat.

"Ross! Stop that; you making me nervous!" Jennifer stated.

"Awe comes on, Coco, I just want to see your work." Ross smiled.

Jennifer gave out a deep sigh and kept working in the cafe. Ross stared at Jennifer until she ordered him to do something around the restaurant. Ross took someone's place by taking orders and serving people. A couple of minutes later, a girl with twin tails braids come down from the top floor. She had pale skin, bright blue eyes, brown hair, and a cheery smile.

"I am here!" The girl smiled.

Ross passed her apron as he walked upstairs. The girl grew mad as she places the apron on.

"I came in to give a show, and no one noticed me." The girl cried.

"Sayuri just gets to work," Jennifer stated.

Sayuri puffed her cheeks with air as she walks to the customers. She started to work until something caught her eye—a boy like no other she have ever seen around in town before.

Cheren walked up to Jennifer to order an Espresso.

"Coming right up, sir. Please give me your name?" Jennifer stated

"Cheren Gray," Cheren stated.

"You're related to Chrom Gray?" Jennifer asked.

"Indeed, he is my brother. We have to move together with my sister." Cheren smiled.

" Yeah, I have noticed you came around looking for your sister, Mana, was it?" Jennifer said.

"Yes, that's her. She is doing fine. So how much do I have to pay for my Espresso? "Cheren said as he pulled out his wallet.

Sayuri winked at Jennifer as she gave her a confused look and answered Cheren question. Cheren paid for his coffee and sat down on the chairs near the counters. Sayuri walked up to Jennifer with anger in her eyes. She grabbed Jennifer to whispered in her ear.

"What are you doing? You should have given him coffee on the house." Sayuri whispered.

Jennifer rolled her eyes, " Right if I am going to that to a told stranger. Sayuri grows up from your puppy love. You have trouble with dating guys."

"NO, I don't not!" Sayuri cried.

The voice in the room have stopped; as for cheren, he looked up from his phone. A few short minutes, people when back to their discussions, as Cheren went back to looking at his phone.

Jennifer finished with Cheren's Espresso and placed it in front of him.

Cheren turned off his phone and grabbed his Espresso with a smile. Cheren left the cafe with coffee in hand. Sayuri watches in horror as the guys left. She held her breath and grabbed hold of the door. She slowly turned the door opened.

"Sayuri, where are you going?" Akane asked.

"Well, I was going to check someone, I meant something out!" Sayuri ranted.

Akane gave out a sigh and look at Jennifer for guides. Jennifer shook her head.

"Sayuri just gets back here; you have a job to do," Akane stated.

"Yes, Aunt Akane." Sayuri supposed as she limped to work.

Jennifer rolled her eyes and continued her work. Evening rolled around, and the group closed off the cafe.

"Phew, that was a good day like no other." Jennifer smiled.

"Indeed, I will be checking on the resume and the applicant that you gave me, "Akane stated.

Jennifer walked into the backroom to get a check on the inventory.

Sayuri and Ross sneaked out of the house.

"Thanks for joining me, Ross!" Sayuri smiled.

"Well, I can't have you walking around the town alone," Ross stated.

In the distance, they hear wolves howl. Ross ear perked up and stopped to listen to the wolf.

"Ross, why did you stop?" Sayuri noticed.

"I sometimes wish that someone could teach me the wolf dialect. I wonder what they are howling about." Ross asked.

"You still think your big brother is still out here?"Sayuri asked.

"I think so; he left a letter saying that he will be back for me. I know he will come back!" Ross smiled.

"What if he forgot about you? What if he does not know recognizes you? What is just gone?" Sayuri stated.

"Well, I think that is true. I know my brother is out there. I know he is looking for me. I won't be here in the first place!" Ross grinned.

Sayuri petted his hair as they continue to walk. Ross smiled back at Sayuri, filled with happiness.

Sayuri thought, "I sure hope his brother alive in the first place."

A black figure crossed their path. Ross looked at Sayuri then back at the track.

"Arson is back!" Ross cried!

Ross ran off, leaving Sayuri behind. Sayuri gave out a defeated sigh as she started to pick up the pace after Ross. Ross kept following the figure to a house that finds the place familiar. Ross took in the scenery as he walked towards the house. Sayuri came behind him, panting.

"Ross, don't off like that!" Sayuri panted.

"Look at this house! It's big and cool." Ross calm

"It's not that big. It has two floors with a basement." Someone stated.

Both of them turn to Chrom. Chrom smiled at them.

"Hey kid, not the first time we saw each other today," Chrom stated.

"True, I have seen you in the clothes shop. My name is Ross, and this here is Sayuirt." Ross's tail started to wag.

"Nice to meet you two. My name Is Chrom; I move in with my family." Chrom smiled.

"Oh, so you took this house. I thought it was abled. Not worthy of being sold to someone." Sayuri stated.

"Chrom, who are you talking to you?" Cheren walked toward the front of the house.

"These folks here. Sayuri and Rosuto. Sorry, Ross. That there is my brother Cheren. He has a thing for plants, names them all." Chrom stated.

"Nice to meet you, guys. Chrom, what was that last part!" Cheren smiled.

"Nothing bud. Just saying how you have many plants in our house." Chrom stated.

"Oh, right! If you want, I can show them to you. They will love to meet you." Cheren grinned.

Chrom gave Cheren a disgusted look. Cheren rolled his eyes and glared at him.

"What do you have a problem with what I said," Cheren asked.

Chrom looked around, " Where is Mana?"

Mana popped out from behind Chrom. Chrom smiled at her and introduced her to Sayuri and Ross. Mana gave a bit smile once she met them. She ran in circles around them and gave both of them hugs. Mana's tail kept wagged when they walked into the house.

"Chrom, your eyes are a beautiful shade of baby blue." Sayuri smile

" Oh, um, thanks?" Chrom guessed.

Cheren started to make tea for their visitors.
