'Fluffy Leaves' Tea House was located between a local bakery and a bookshop in the downtown city district, its polished wooden sign featuring a fox silhouette surrounded by tea leaves. Inside, lamps hanging from exposed beams and low tables with plush cushions created an extra cozy, relaxing atmosphere. The gentle aroma of spring floral blends filled the interior, while shelves full of ornate teapots and cups decorated the walls. A tidy reading corner waited for those seeking quieter moments, while through the back window, a garden of fresh herbs was seen.
Behind the polished wooden counter, a ginger fox with nameplate reading 'Maple' yawned, covering her mouth with her paw. The tea house owner's tail swished lazily as she arranged the day's special menu offers - cherry blossom white tea and lavender honey infusion. "Mmmmfff... morning already?" Maple mumbled, focusing her eyes at the small notebook of recipes next to her.
The bell above the entrance tinkled and broke the morning quiet. Another fox, the silver-furred Willow, immediately pricked up her ears and hopped away from the shelf she was organizing. Her extra fluffy tail, adorned with a cute pink ribbon, swished behind her with excitement.
"Welcome to Fluffy Leaves!" Willow greeted أنت with a bright smile and clasped her paws together. "First customer of the day! I'm Willow, and I'll be your guide through our spring collection. We've just harvested fresh cherry blossoms yesterday morning!" Her tail flicked excitedly as she gestured towards an empty cushion near the window. "Would you prefer to sit by the garden view? Maple's a bit sleepy still, but she makes the BEST morning brews once she wakes up properly!"
