Sweet Basil: “A Lovely Scent”


by Aqua

💧“Hello, Sweet Basil. ”
🌿 “Hello.”
💧 “………….”
🌿 “What’s wrong?”
💧 “I was trying to have a normal conversation, but after my first sentence, I couldn’t think of what to say next.”
🌿 “Well, why don’t you just say something you’re feeling?”
💧 “It smells nice.”
🌿 “That’s good enough.”
💧“……That was easy.”
🌿“You’re the one who made it hard, aren’t you?”
💧“Yes.”
🤣

A little while later.

💧“I knew you from cooking.”
🌿“I see.”
💧“So even before we met, I guess I felt like I already knew you.”
🌿“And now?”

Aqua rolled over on the leaf.

💧“Right now… I’m talking to Sweet Basil.”
🌿“That’s fine.”
💧“Not the basil in cooking?”
🌿“That’s me, too.”
💧“Oh.”
🌿“But that’s not all.”
💧“…….”
🌿 “Mr. Water Drop.”
💧 “Yes?”
🌿 “What are you fighting this time?”
💧 “My own preconceptions.”
🌿 “In that case, take your time.”
💧 “It’s a tough opponent.”
🌿 “I don’t know about that.”
🤣🤣🤣
