Isa would smile as she entered the Tea House. The Smell of Traditional Kusarian Tea and the Clasical Teahouse Music that came from hidden Speakers made her feel as if she had stepped through a Portal into a Calm and Secluded Teahouse on Planet Kyushu. Isabella was wearing a Traditional Kusarian Kimono on her body and her hair was done in the Traditional Kusarian Fashion. The only thing that gave away that she was only half Kusarian was her Olive Skin tone which was much too similar to the Corsairs that lived in these parts of the Omicrons. As always she would have the Cat named Niki with her who would Ride on her Shoulder and would watch over the World from up there as if she was a Queen. Isabella would Wait Respectfully till a Waitress brought her to one of the Free Tables. It was a bit Extraordinary place and had normal Tables on the floor and on the wall was a Little Honeycomb Setup that would allow for even more tables. Isa would be Guided to one of the Honeycombs on the top floor and waited for Jill.
Isa would read again the Reply that Jill had Sent her a couple of days ago as she was on the way to Omicron Theta. She was really happy that Jill would love the idea that she would become her Maid of Honor. And that she also liked the idea that Anya would become the Ring Bearer. She knew that John´s Goddaughter was still very young and the last thing that she wanted was to Burden the Precious little girl. But that was a thing that she would talk about with Jill, she as Anya´s Mother would know best what her little Girl could do and what not. for now, Isa would wait for Jill, she had told her that she would be here so she should not have to wait too long, but with a place like the academy, no one could ever be certain. But Isa didn't mind she would order a Pot of Green Tea and a Slice of that Delicious Kusarian Cheesecake. Now with these Delicious Treats on the way, she would be well-equipped to wait for Jill. While she did that she would look at the Engagement Ring on her finger and smile as she thought about the love that she felt for John.
Jill hurried through the corridors of the academy, her mind still slightly preoccupied with the last-minute questions from a pair of interns. She had left early, intending to be on time, but such is the life of a director. Five minutes wasn’t too bad, she supposed, though she hated the thought of keeping Isabella waiting.
As the entrance to the Kusarian Tea House came into view, Jill took a moment to adjust her posture and smooth her hair. The serene ambiance inside was an immediate contrast to the bustling academy. The scent of freshly brewed tea and the calming tones of traditional music welcomed her, and the space seemed to exude tranquility. Jill's gaze flicked upward, searching for Isa.
When the waitress guided her to the honeycomb seating above, she spotted Isabella. Her friend looked radiant in a beautifully worn Kusarian kimono, her hair styled in a traditional fashion that Jill couldn’t help but admire. The small cat perched on Isa’s shoulder was, as always, a picture of feline regality.
Jill’s heart swelled at the thought of being chosen as the Maid of Honor. The role was deeply meaningful, and the fact that both John and Isabella had agreed on her filled her with warmth. And then there was the idea of Anya as the ring bearer. Jill smiled softly to herself. Her daughter would undoubtedly love the idea. With a bit of guidance and a lot of encouragement, the little girl could rise to the occasion. But everything depended on where the ceremony would take place. Anya was still so small, and long-distance travel would be a consideration.
As Jill approached the table, the lingering worries faded. Today was about joy and celebration, and she was more than ready to share in her friend’s happiness. She gave a wave, her warm smile shining through.
"Isa, you look stunning," Jill said, her voice full of genuine affection as she gave Isa a warm embrace. "I’m so honored, truly. And as for Anya, I think she would be thrilled — with a little coaching, of course."
Sliding into her seat, Jill cast a glance at the steaming pot of tea and the inviting slice of cheesecake. It seemed Isa had prepared the perfect setting for their conversation. Today was a celebration of love and friendship, and Jill was more than ready to be a part of it.

Isa Smiled as she saw Jill approaching, her friend looked a bit Stressed and Isa could understand that very well. Jill was after all the Leader of the Academy and had many Responsibilities and a lot of Weight on her shoulder. Isa hoped that this meeting could at least take a little bit off her shoulders. Isa would stand up as she approached and greet Jill with a respectful bow, as it was a fashion in the Kusarian culture. But then she would Give her a hug as well as it was normal between friends. She wasn't sure what Jill would have wanted so she had not ordered anything for her, but the Pot of Tea would have enough for both of them if she wanted it.
Isa: Oh my Jill you make me Blush with such Compliments. Especially from such a good-looking woman as yourself. she said and pointed towards the Pot of Tea. I have some Green Tea if you want a Cup. But they also have other Flavors if you wish to them. They also have other Kusarian Sweets if you want some, but I can definitely advise the Cheesecake.
And not just Isa was happy to see Jill, Niki was as well and would Jump from Isabella´s shoulder onto the table and then walk over to Jill and Greet her with a Purr as she rubbed her head on the other Doctor. Isabella smiled as she knew that Niki could feel the Stress in Jill and that her natural Instinct and the Training as a Therapy Cat would compel her to help Jill find a little Relaxing Time.
Isa: oh John and I are Excited as well, you are a good friend to both of us and that's why we thought of you as the Perfect Match to be my Maid of Honor. And well the Idea for Anya to be the Ring Bearer was a Spontaneous one that John had during a Stay at the Beach on Baden Baden during our Last Holiday. But I do not want to Overwhelm the little angel, she shall have fun at the Wedding and I don't want you to think that I would want to take advantage of how cute she is for some Wedding Pictures. John is so Proud to be her godfather and I think he wants her to be the Ring Bearer because in his heart she is Part of his Family.
Isa spoke with a voice that showed how nervous she was. for her Jill was someone that she Deeply Respected and that she didn't want to offend in any way, shape, or form. Now she would wait a bit nervous about these things that Jill would respond and to cover that up she would raise a hand and sign for the waitress to come over and take Jill´s Order. And then she would play a bit nervous with the Beautifull Engagement Ring on her finger. It was a beautiful piece and showed how much John loved her. The Centerpiece was a Shining Stone that was Pure and Beautifull and would Reflect the Light in many different ways. To look at this Ring would Calm Isabella as she would know that the man of dreams Loved her and would be always by her side.
Jill felt a warmth spread through her chest as Isabella greeted her with both a bow and a hug. The Kusarian gesture of respect combined with the familiar embrace of friendship was something she deeply appreciated. Despite the stress of the day, being here, in this calm space, with a dear friend, was already lifting some of the weight off her shoulders.
She gave Isa a soft smile, chuckling at the compliment. "Oh, Isa, you always know how to make someone feel special. And thank you, I’d love some of the green tea." She glanced at the cheesecake and added, "You know, I think I will take your advice on that as well."
As she settled into her seat, Niki’s sudden leap onto the table made her pause. The small feline padded over to her, rubbing her head against Jill’s arm with a gentle purr. A quiet chuckle escaped Jill as she reached out to stroke the cat’s soft fur. "You always know when someone needs a bit of comfort, don’t you, Niki?" she murmured, appreciating the small yet soothing presence of the therapy cat.
Jill turned her attention back to Isabella, listening intently as she spoke about the wedding. The nervousness in her voice didn’t go unnoticed, and Jill felt a surge of affection for her friend. She reached out and placed a reassuring hand over Isa’s. "Isa, I’m truly honored that you and John thought of me for this. It means a lot. And as for Anya, I have no doubt she would love to be involved. She adores John, and I know she sees him as part of her family too. We’ll just have to see how she takes to the idea with a little practice."
She glanced down as Isa fidgeted with her engagement ring, the way the light caught the stone making it shimmer beautifully. Jill smiled, knowing how much love was behind that simple yet profound symbol. "It’s a gorgeous ring," she said softly. "And you’re going to make a beautiful bride. John is a lucky man."
As the waitress approached, Jill placed her order before turning back to Isa, a gentle warmth in her expression. "Now, tell me, have you two thought about venues yet? Or is that still part of the brainstorming phase?"

Isa blushed at Jill's Compliment and sat down again with a smile. Such Compliments from a friend like Jill meant a lot to her. Isa would wave over a waitress and order the same delicious cheesecake and an extra cup of tea for Jill, as she mentioned that she wanted to order the same as she had. And as Niki did her Cat thing she couldn't hold back and had to chuckle.
Isa: oh yes she is my Best Employee and the Cheapest one as well. All she wants for Payment is a Full Bowl of Food, Regular Cuddles, and some Cat Treats from time to time. She is a great help for my work, and sometimes I wish I had 10 of her kind.
She said and then would break out into a burst of happy laughter as the cat answered these words with a loud meow as if she wanted to say that Ias was Right with her assessment. Isa could not help but think that this cat was much more intelligent than all of the humans around her would want to give her credit for. But she was not here to talk about Niki after all. So she would simply let the cat cuddle with Jill and would come back to the topic.
Isa: well I am glad you say that. I mean you her Mother so you will know best what your little girl can do and what not. But I have also heard that Anya would see John as some sort of Uncle. I think that is very cute and when I see how jJohntalks about her then I know that he sees her as a part of his family as well. To be honest, hearing how he talks about Anya and his children makes me more confident that he is the right one to be the father of my future children as well. But that is a thing that we want to try after the Wedding so please keep that a Secret for now.
Isa said with a giggle as she took another sip from her tea and could see how the Waitress brought the Plate with a Delicious Slice of Cheesecake and the cup of Tea for Jill. She smiled as she heard the comments about the Ring and the Question about the Wedding Venue. She would first another Fork of the cake before she answered, the Kusarian Cheese Cake was simply tasting too good to resist for long.
Isa: You should put a Spoon or two into the Tea before you Drink it, Kusarian Green Tea is Calming but can be a bit Bitter. And yes i almost had a heart attack when he pulled this ring out of his pocket on that Beach. I never took it off since then. And I think John also enjoys it when I wear it. I often catch him staring at the ring when I am cuddling with him, it's almost as if he can't believe that I said yes.She said and Chuckles As for the Wedding Venue I can tell you that It is currently not 100% Decided, but we narrowed it down to Two Options. The first one would be here at the Academy. We could Invite all of our Friends and it would be at a place that we both see as the Heart of MFE. I mean you Educate so many Young and Brilliant Doctors and Nurses here that will be the Future of our Company. The other option would be the Faith Haven Colony on Planet Pygar. The New Covenant Church are good friends and I have personally Trained the new Head Psychologist of Faith Haven. It would also be a Strong Signal to our Allies and these Idiots from the Phoenix who want to play Warlord in Omicron Theta. I have told John that I am fine with Both Venues as long as you are my Maid of Honor. Of course, we would also value your opinion on this matter and I will discuss your Advice with John.
She said and would sip some more of the tea and the Cake while she enjoyed this talk with Jill. She was so happy about this meeting ant that Jill would be her maid of Honor and especially that Anya would Carry the rings. Isa would need to think about a Proper Present for the Litle Girl. Maybe a big Plushie Animal? She would need to aks Jill, and talk with John about it.
