Melody was about to answer Theresa's question when suddenly she headed off to order herself another coffee. So instead, while she waited, Melody considered her answer, hands cupping her mug for the warmth as she sipped from it. She had never realised that being a witch was considered as being a 'hippy', and she tried to think of a few of the customers, then realised that perhaps some might appear a little 'hippy-ish', so shrugged internally and looked around as Theresa waited for her refill.
And it was when she looked toward the windows to see the passers by, that she saw, or didn't see, something she expected, or didn't expect.
Theresa's reflection wasn't there. The guy serving her wouldn't have noticed, given the signage on the windows where he was standing, but the angle Melody seeing gave her a different view, and the guy was talking to himself as Theresa paid for the coffee. She blinked and checked again, and wondered if it was 'Meet a Vampire Week', at least for her, after meeting Daniel a few days earlier.
She sat there and waited as Theresa returned and settled back into the cushion.
"Well, we have all types of clients, or customers," she answered, "some who are regulars and also do some work from time to time, like creating wards and specialty items, and others we can pretty much guess are on their 'learner's permit' and we also get a few others who are looking for some help with different... conditions." She looked at the window, where again she could see only a reflection of herself, and no-one sitting on the dented cushions.
