WHERE The Tea House
WARNINGS Tbd, probably none
STATUS Closed | Incomplete
Ella was feeling a bit more up to going out now, with an escort of course, so she'd invited Sergeant Barnes for the walk to the Tea House. She missed her friend dearly and that was motivation enough to overcome her lingering fears. She could not live the rest of her life within the walls of her home, nor did she want to. The Tea House was perfectly safe and she did hope to resume working there once her baking was back to the level it needed to be. Her friendship with Lady Mary was far more important than that, however.
She walked into the shop with her head held high, a bit cautious but not terribly so, after thanking Sergeant Barnes for his company. Ella moved toward the counter, waiting in line until it was her turn to order. She smiled warmly at her friend. "Good Afternoon, Lady Mary," she greeted. "I am sorry to drop by at work, but I had hoped it would be a bit slow today so I might entice you to sit with me for tea." She was quite hopeful at that, but she of course understood if it wasn't possible in this particular moment. She would have absolutely no problem sitting and waiting until it was quiet enough for Mary to take a few minutes to sit with her.
