[hr]
Just as she expected, the morning rush was quick to come bustling through the door. It was usual for them to be swamped early in the morning before a few hours rest, then lunch. Business slowed down a lot in the evening, which gave the two baristas enough time to rest aching feet and catch their breath. The rush had Chris and Kali hard pressed to keep up, the two practically dancing around each other. After a couple of years working together like this, the work was getting easier to manage, the ding of the bell alerting them each time someone entered and exited. It was at least nice to have such a warning. 

Glancing up from the cup of coffee she was preparing, she managed to catch sight of a flash a bright blond hair before glancing away, carefully putting the cap on the takeaway cup before taking it over to the edge of the counter, calling out the name she had doodled onto the edge of the cup. Once the coffee was picked up, she switched places with Chris at the till, the two alternating as they took and made orders. 

After one last rotation, she moved back to the till, coming face to face with the owner of the blond hair she had caught sight entering earlier. While Kali wasn't the most hospitable person outside of the cafe, within the premises she was the picture of hospitality, bright grin on her lips which caused a certain amount of strain on her facial scars, though she dare not drop it. The owners wouldn't be happy if they got bad reviews about a frowning barista. [color=f7941d]"Good morning. What can I get you today?"[/color] Her voice was happy, though the low tone offset that slightly. It almost seemed like she had been smoking intently for the past few years, though she supposed it wasn't far from the truth. [color=f7941d]"Kali"[/color] She filled in the blank left by the shorter woman, raising a hand to tap the nametag on the right side of her apron.

She took note on the slight flush on the woman's cheeks but pushed it away, instead focusing on imputing the order into the display of the cash register. [color=f7941d]"That'll be $5. Eat in or to go?"[/color]
