A cup of tea is an excuse to share

great thoughts with great minds.

Kathy's POV

I wake up and remember not to sit up automatically. Finally, this bitch is learning. Bitch. I wake up with a slight headache and take my morning pills. Wow, you sound old.

I slowly slip out of bed and go to the bathroom. Once I'm done, I braid my hair so it's not covering my face.

I slowly open the door and peep my head into the hallway. I step out and see a flight of stairs. I walk down the stairs and see a little girl in the living room.

She looks at me and smiles. I smile back and ask, "Hi, sweetie. What's your name?"

"I'm Jasmine! Thony's amazing sister and better-looking sibling," She exclaims. His sister is so cute! I guess being cute runs in the family.

I chuckle and say, "You got that right. Why do you call your brother Thony?"

"Because ants are short, and he's tall!" She responds. "Better to cut off the ant part."

"Well, I'm Kathy," I say.

"Want to have a tea party!?" She asks excitedly.

"Sure!" I say, thrilled. I wish I had a sibling growing up. No, you don't.

"Ok, I'll be right back! I just have to grab the set!" She says, running up the stairs.

A few seconds later, I see Jasmine holding little teapots and cups. We sit on the oversized couch, and she lays out the pieces. She hands me a teacup and pretends to make some tea.

"Could you please pour me a cup of tea?" I ask in a posh voice.

She giggles and answers, "Of course!" She pretends to pour it into my cup, and I pretend to sip the tea.

"Wow, this is quite lovely!" I say. She pours herself a cup and makes a loud slurping sound. I start laughing cause she looks adorable.

We hear someone walking toward us and glance at Anthony. He softly smiles and asks, "What are you guys up to?"

"We're having a tea party!" Jasmine says, beaming.

"I have to talk to Kathy alone for a few minutes... You can continue your tea party after, right?" He asks.

"Okay..." Jasmine says, frowning.

"Hey, you should go make us some cookies! What's a tea party without food?" I ask.

She gasps and says, "You're right!" After that sentence, she jumps off the couch and bolts out of the room.

"How are you feeling?" He asks.

"Not being unconscious is great. Glad I'm not passing out as much." I say.

He laughs and says, "That's good to hear. No infection with the stitches?"

"Nope. I'm pretty sure I can take them out soon." I say.

For a second, there was an awkward silence. "You have a nice house." I blurt out.

He bites back a smile and says, "Thanks. You want a tour?"

"That'd be cool," I say.

Jasmine returns with actual cookies and says, "It's been a few minutes. You can go now."

Anthony gasps, and I stifle a laugh. He playfully glares at both of us and says, "Wow. I see how it is."

He walks away, and Jasmine says, "Finally. We can eat some Oreos."

I grab one from the package and see Jasmine judging me. "You just eat your Oreo like that?"

I smirk and ask, "How do you eat it?"

She breaks apart the cookie and licks the icing. I dramatically gasped and said, "How dare you? You have to eat them together."

"Only psychopaths eat them together." She says, eyeing me suspiciously.

"Guess I'm going to have to kill you," I say, tickling her.

She laughs and shouts, "Mercy. I take it back."

I pull away and place a hand on my heart. "You really hurt my feelings, Jasmine," I say, pretending to be sad.

She hands me another Oreo and says, "Sorry that you can't eat it like a normal person."

I laugh and lightly shove her shoulder. "So rude."

"It's okay. We can still be friends, even if you are weird." She says, laughing.

I hope you liked it! 😊

Byeeeeeeeeee! 👋
