Hungry cat: Cat's Tail, EA

[Bazir]

''As you wish sayyeda'' he inclined his head and lead the way before signaling to get coffee ready ''Are you aware of our menu? We recommend the seasonal fattoush right now: baked pita, walnuts, cheese, strawberries with a sauce made with a base of pomegranate.''

[Kezia]

"That sounds absolutely heavenly. Yes, please..."

[Bazir]

''It will be my pleasure'' the café owner lead her to the open top terrace, towards a corner where flowers grew in abundance under a bright orange parasol.

''Here you are sayyeda. Should I bring you a shisha as well?''

[Kezia]

"Thank you, but I must decline the shisha..."

She tapped the side of her throat.

"While I'm not the singer my sister is, I do my best not to impair what ability I do have..."

[Bazir]

''Very well'' Bazir inclined himself ''I shall return shortly with your coffee and salad''

And so the man left his visitor to her own design until he returned with the dish

''Here you are sayyeda''

[Kezia]

Kezia's eyebrows went up.

"Sidi, if this is the usual bill of fare in your establishment, you may never be rid of me."

[Bazir]

''Oh no!'' he gasped in fake scandal ''I don't suppose my coffee would change your mind?''

[Kezia]

"Alas, I fear the damage is done..."

Kezia didn't bother hiding her appreciation.

"No, it's too late, the Cat's Tail will have its praises sung everywhere we go."

[Bazir]

Bazir could not help himself and clutched his heart in overly dramatic pain and fell to his knees

''By Shilah! What have I done?!''

[Kezia]

Kezia's tones were sententious and grim.

"May the excellence of your hospitality serve as a warning to all under Shilah's gaze for the next thousand generations."
