What Separates Me and You

Chapter 5 What A Silly Girl

A figure was leaning against the table, and a faint scent of perfume wafted over. Josephine looked up at the person speaking.

It was Avery Green, the owner of the coffee shop.

Avery was around 5’8” tall. She had short hair and was wearing a black T-shirt and sweatpants. A lot of people would mistake her for a man if she didn’t speak.

Back when Josephine first came for the interview, she was so shocked when Avery pinched her cheek. She only realized that Avery was a woman after hearing her voice.

Josephine put down the tablecloth and smiled while signing, “I’m already used to it.”

Avery glanced at her fingers, then at her teary eyes. She frowned.

Although Josephine gave a short and simple answer, Avery knew that it must be carrying so much pain and sorrow.

She handed over the cup of drink in her grip and said, “Your favorite matcha latte. Take it. Everyone gets one.”

Josephine thanked her and took a sip of the latte.
