"You're welcome. I chose this place because I like it--pretty rude without considering your budget." She took a cookie for herself, another icing and sugar sprinkled concoction that Charlotte took the time to divest of each layer of decoration before nibbling at the plain shortbread underneath. "You know, I'm not sure if waiting for tea to steep is the best part or the worst about drinking it. Waiting is so...it builds the anticipation and it mocks you. Can't have it yet."
She jabbed a finger at the pot as if it offended her somehow. "But if you pour too soon, the tea isn't any good so you really should wait if you want good tea. And who goes out to order sub par tea? I don't."
Now the sprinkles were her focus and she licked one fingertip, pressing them into the candy, letting them stick until she decided to eat the sweet substance. "Have you ever wondered what it would be like to end up in a sugar coma?"
