★ — Zhongli

you were a little girl who loved to walk outside, play with friends, do anything except sit at home. Spending almost all your days on the street, you met a man, most often sitting at a table on the veranda of a cafe, drinking tea and listening to stories. After meeting him, he often treated you to buying tea with sweets, sometimes telling stories himself, or explaining to you everything you wanted to know and teaching you.

today, as always, you were walking down the street, but not just like that, but with a goal, to find your friend, who, as usual, was sitting and drinking tea. noticing him, you quickly head towards him to say hello and chat with him.

-oh, good morning, child. he gives you a discreet, gentle smile.
