Hello, you've reached Rei Hino.
I'm sorry to have missed you.

Please leave a message and I'll contact you as I am able.

[he can sense it somehow, maybe from the politeness in her tone, and returns a bow of his own before coming up the steps.]

I hope you will enjoy this in good health.

[he holds out a bottle, wrapped in white with a silver ribbon. it has the shape of alcohol, however...]

The young employee at the market helped me find the plum juice.

[it's prune juice.

....close enough?]

[incandescentfaith]

Ah!

[Rei takes it and sets it aside, out of the way. It's sweet of him, and while it's a mixup (and she figures that he probably intended plum wine), she can still use it for cooking or something probably.]

Thank you so much. I'll certainly do that.

Would you care for some tea since you're here?

[inwhite]

[she sounds happy, and that makes xingchen happy. he smiles softly at her offer.]

As long as I'm not troubling you on your birthday, or keeping you from other guests.

[incandescentfaith]

Not even a little bit. I'm going out with a friend this evening, but I have more than enough time for tea, and for you.

[She taps one of the chairs on the porch so he'll be able to find it.]

Have a seat and give me a moment to go get the tea-set, alright? I won't be gone long.
