"That's quite a big batch." Mrs. Tani commented, eyeing the basket on Coco's shoulders and the extra two baskets she's carrying on her hands.
Coco sent the merchant an apologetic smile. "Well, I need to get extra money as much as I can.. Sorry."
"It's fine, it's fine." Mrs. Tani chuckled out and waved her hand dismissively, then she gestured for Coco to follow her, "Come, put them here at the back of the shop."
"Pardon the intrusion." Coco said, following behind the merchant.
The two of them walked for a bit and were quiet, at least until they walked through the doorway leading to the other room.
"You know, you should stop saying that." Mrs. Tani stated, a playful lilt on her voice as she stepped out of Coco's way, "This place is practically your workshop, too, you know? Because you had to drop off the fruits you harvested on a daily basis."
"It just comes out." Coco hummed, absentmindedly.
