A kind feminine voice of a girl like a chime bell ring at the spring
He opened the door by the time she was gone he came down the wooden ladder and sat on the the table.
"What would you like to order sir"A feminine voice of previous time she further added "You can call me bell what's yours"
There was plain refine girl with black silky hair with one ear have a blue pearl ear ring white clothes with frill . She has a kind smile.
"I would like to order one salad and potato stew" ignoring her second question he said.
She pouted a bit but nods in agreement and walked away
She was rather felt lonely as none frequently visit the small village so she wanted some one to chat friendly but guess can't be helped or may be it just the curiosity
After two minutes
Palate was put down by her it was a mixture of all kind of vegetable.
"its good" she said when he was observing it.
He took one spoonful bite and it was over in a minute
"Time for payment" she moved her hand towards him.

" Aren't food money is included with the room" sliding his left han into the back side of his hair.
"you are mistaken sir well I can give you a discount can't be helped your name"
