Markus didn't worry about the lapse in conversation; he wasn't really one who needed all of his time filled with noise or space. He also knew that sometimes people just liked to enjoy a good walk. The tea shop was only a couple blocks from where they had been. It was against one of the rivers that cut through the city and provided an excellent view of Newton and the waterfront.
With a smile, Markus turned towards Kai. “It seems this is it.” His voice was light as he looked at the menu before stepping up to the counter and ordering himself an Earl Grey; he was even pleased to see that they offered honey as a sugar option. He would also order himself a sandwich before pointing his thumb at the other man with him, “And whatever he wants,” Markus informed, winking at his friend.
“Order whatever; I got us, then we can swap stories.”
