Cafe Fina, late Thursday afternoon, January 27th
Momoko was sitting in the Cafe Fina, poking a spoon at a parfait. She'd tried rifling through the cupboards of the common room, looking for something to eat, but she needed more than just candy and packaged cookies to deal with the two unopened envelopes on the table in front of her. So far, she'd finished three slices of cake, one slice of pie, and two bowls of warm cobbler a la mode.
She pushed at the two envelopes with her parfait spoon, frowning. The results of her National Exams and Police Academy test had both arrived in today's mail. Both marked confidential, both meaning different ways for her life to go. Both reminding her that school ended in just a few months.
Did it mean something if one was a thicker envelope than the other? Hadn't one of Dinah's university letters been thicker? Which one was it; the good news or the bad?
"And what exactly do I think is good news?" Momoko frowned and dug back into her parfait, completely not wanting to open either envelope. She hadn't had nearly enough snacks yet.
[Open, as the cafe is. Feel free to bug her or not!]

And once again, it paid off.
"Hey, you," he called as he walked in.

Jaime bit back a smirk.
"A girl, about your height." Exactly Momoko's height. "She has red hair, a lot like yours." Which was to say: exactly like hers.

She cast him a sideways glance. "Or is that why you're looking for her? Hmmmm?"

"She likes sweets, so I sort of suspected she might have come through here..." He cocked his head. "Seen anyone?"

"Aka... something." Like he didn't remember.

"It just happened to be you." That was okay, right?

"You really were looking for me?" She shouldn't sound so pleased about that, not really. Momoko turned to hide her grin, waving at a Spoon who was clearing another table. She pointed at her empty cup, getting a nod and a thumbs up in return from the cutlery before she turned back to Jaime. "Why were you looking for me?"

She raised a hand. "And before you ask, the snacks in the common room totally don't count. Even I can only eat so many stale Oreos and week-old packaged muffins."

He rather suspected she'd basically been eating sugar since she'd gotten to the cafe.

The friendly waitress Spoon came by to replace Momoko's empty parfait cup with a full one, just then. "Thank you!"

"See?" Momoko gave Jaime a smug look and dug her spoon into her parfait.
"Of course," the Spoon just had to continue, "she's only had desserts since then. Want me to check her tab so far?"
Momoko sank into her chair. Taking the parfait with her, of course.

Jaime leaned across the table slightly, looking worried. "What's up?"
