#(ooc: FIRST DOTT INTERACTION!!!

[leftdestiny-posts]

Dear @jessamine-rose,

I'll let you in on a secret of mine. Not a single letter goes to my apprentice without me reading it prior. This should be expected, since they made my bakery their home address. An honest misjudgment on their side. Shiro has always been easy to give their trust away.

Given how smart you are, I'm sure you've unravelled my reasons for writing this message to you.

When, on 14 February, a letter addressed to 'Shiro' appeared, I was the first to read it. Your mention of cupcakes… Were you thinking of me?

While I suppose it would be unwise of me to share why this letter took several days before it got relayed to Shiro, you should believe that my intentions are well.

A few days after its disappearance, it 'suddenly' appeared back in the mail. And while it’s not uncommon for mail to get delayed or lost, Shiro appeared to be flustered when they realised that they missed their chance to send something in return.

According to my expectations, this gave me the opportunity to mention 'White Day', something that's been steadily growing more popular in Snezhnaya. (We have a White Day collection in the bakery. It'd pleasantly surprise you how well it sells.) This, in return, made her ask for my help, re: a gift to send to you;

‎

Today, before dawn, I got up to make a special batch of cupcakes. I sincerely hope your manners have kept you from eating them before reading this letter, because I fear the pink one is not made for you.

If you happen to dislike anyone at this given moment, I suggest giving this pink cupcake as a gift. I'm sure you'll enjoy the results.

The blue one, however, Shiro and I made together. It's a popular item on our menu, and I hope you'll enjoy it.

‎

Unfortunately, Shiro's letter got lost somewhere between my leave from the bakery and my arrival to your house. It's something I have to apologise for, an honest mistake. It seems that I've grown clumsy. All the more reason to enjoy my letter instead.

But I can assure you, she wishes for you to have a "Happy White day".

‎

‎

We hope to see you in the bakery soon.‎

Signed by yours,

P.s. In return for my gift, I trust you’ll keep this letter a secret between you and me.

There is no need to share a mention of these fleeting interactions with Shiro. Lest they get worried, fretting that I might’ve said something 'unpleasant'. (Can you believe it? How insulting.)
