Famous (part 1?)
“I’M FAMOUS!” Juniper barged into my kitchen, declaring her fame loudly. She quieted down a tad bit as she continued, “I’m famous among the elves!”
“Oh, wow, erm, cool?” I said, unimpressed because it’s not hard to be famous among the elves. They’re simple creatures, tall and purple, and not hard to please. “What did you do?”
“I saved a unicorn!”
She should’ve started with that; unicorns are incredibly rare and definitely worth saving.
“Oh! That’s great, Junie,” I smiled warmly at her and continued my work with the kitchen. The restaurant was busy as always, so I wanted her to hurry up. “Get your apron on.”
Juniper sighed and levitated her apron until it’s tied around her waist. “The unicorn gave me a gift, Tara.”
“Oh?” I said, mostly just to not seem rude.
“A stone!”
“Oh.”
Junie produced a little white and pink stone. It was honestly very pretty, but I had hungry customers waiting outside. I didn’t want them to mob us.
Again.
