MIS:155: Passing Through

Synopsis

Bonnie finishes her cup of tea and heads out, but not before Esther flirts with her. She backs off when Bonnie admits that she is in a relationship.

Author Notes

With the brutally heavy topic from last time out of the way, Bonnie has the info she needs. She finishes up the tea and decides to take off, but not before quick introductions (Esther names herself on page, finally).

And then Esther takes a chance and flirts a little. Bonnie is flattered, but as she quickly admits, in a relationship. Esther backs off and Bonnie heads out. And I'm sure there'll be no further interactions between them in the future...

I did want to de-escalate a little after the last page, but just as a small heads up, though: next week will be on the more serious side.

Bonnie:

Well, that took a heavier turn than I was expecting, but thank you for the tea and the conversation, um...

Esther:

Esther.

Bonnie:

Right. Thank you, Esther. I'm Bonnie, by the way.

Esther:

It's been my pleasure, Bonnie.

Bonnie shakes Esther's hand, and Esther is blushing

Esther:

Like I said, I don't get a lot of customers. And I definitely don't get many as smart and pretty as yourself.

Bonnie starts blushing

Bonnie:

Heh. Th-thank you. I should be clear that I am spoken for, though.

Esther:

I'm not surprised. And I'm sure they're very happy to have you.

Esther:

I know you're just passing through, but if you’re ever in town again, I hope you'll come by again sometime, Bonnie. Maybe bring your friends next time.

Bonnie:

Thank you, Esther. Maybe I will someday.
