Mari #628: Mari's Chocolate Party
Yoshiko
Oh, it smells lovely!
Mari
I bought this black tea at the Chocolate Festival I went to recently with Nico-chi and Emma-chi. They said it pairs well with chocolate!
Yoshiko
Huh. I thought they only sold chocolate there.
Mari
There was also a dining area where they served dishes made with cacao.
Mari
They had things like hamburgers with cacao powder mixed into the buns, sushi made with fish dipped in cacao, all kinds!
Yoshiko
They had what now?!
Mari
Yeah. I wanted to try them all, but they were so booked full that I couldn't!
Yoshiko
The Chocolate Festival is a much more spectacular place than I suspected, huh.
Yoshiko
The chocolate you guys gave me before was amazing too. I bragged about it to all my little demons at the magical gathering.
Mari
I'm just happy you liked it! And I have a surprise for you, Yoshiko. Ta-da!
Yoshiko
Wow! A chocolate brownie! And it has a…strawberry center?
Mari
*Giggle* Two of your favorite flavors. When I saw it at the festival I bought it without a second thought. Let's throw an exciting chocolate party today!
Yoshiko
Yay! You're the best, Mari. You know exactly what I like!
Yoshiko
Though my name is Yohane, not Yoshiko. But I'll let it slide for today!
Mari
Great, then go ahead and eat it up!
Yoshiko
I'll do just that. Thanks!
Yoshiko
Mmm! The sweetness of the chocolate and the mild tang of the strawberry go really well together! Indeed, this is an exquisite offering!
Mari
It's obvious from your smile that it must taste REALLY incredible.
Mari
Oh! There's a bit of brownie smeared near your mouth.
Yoshiko
Huh? Where?!
Mari
Don't move. There, all gone!
Yoshiko
Th-Thanks, Mari.
Mari
You're welcome. Well, let's keep on eating!
