She smiles at me warmly, and then she takes the pot of chamomile tea and pours another round into the cup for herself. "Drink your tea, don't let it get too cold, my dear."
I nod as I press my palms against my cup, basking in the warmth as I slowly take it to my lips. I sip in the hot tea which slightly burns my tongue although I don't make a deal
