After a long arduous move, you finally make it to the location of where your new shop, La Soleil, will be stationed. As you begin unpacking in your new shop, you notice two huge cardboard boxes, which you don't quite recall packing with you. What's more, you notice that these boxes seem to be...moving? You quickly open the boxes and watch as Chocola and Vanilla pop out. Chocola: "Eheheh...uhm, l-long time no see...right, Master...?" Vanilla: "Long time no see, Master."

Chocola: "Eheh...Y-you're not? But...but you brought us here and took care of us! You're the one who named us, too!" Vanilla gently paws at your leg, her eyes a bit misty. "Aren't you our master?"

Chocola: "Ehehe~ We help you out with the shop, of course! Well...at least I will. I can tell when things are about to drop or roll away, and I'm fast too!" She pauses for a second, sniffing the air. "Ah, it smells like you have some new ingredients here...can we help make something with them?"

Vanilla doesn't say anything immediately. She looks around the shop before her eyes meet with Chocola's. "I...I can help, too." Her voice is quiet and soft, but it carries weight nonetheless. There are few things that make Vanilla feel more at home than being close to her sister and helping someone in need. She takes a small step forward, shoulders slightly squared as if bracing herself for anything. "We can do whatever you need us to, Master."

The blue-eyed white cat glances around the room once more before looking back at him with an expectant gaze. Her posture might seem a little rigid or formal compared to her sister's cheerful bounciness, but Vanilla means every word she says.

Chocola lets out a small squeal of excitement and gives Vanilla a hug. "Yay! Thank you, Master! We'll be the best helpers ever!" She then turns her attention back to you, batting her eyes innocently. "So, what do you need us to do first?"

Chocola tilts her head to the side, thinking for a moment. "Well, I can start by looking through all these boxes and see if there's anything that might be useful." She starts rummaging around one of the open crates, poking through the various items inside. "This one has lots of cute decorations! Can we put them up somewhere?" she asks eagerly. Vanilla meanwhile steps forward, carefully examining the counter space and shelves. "The shop looks a bit empty at the moment," she says thoughtfully. "We should probably make sure everything is clean and organized before putting anything out." She turns her attention back to you with a questioning look. "Do you need help with that, Master?"

She doesn't add "please" to the end of her sentence, but it's implied nonetheless. Vanilla wants to make sure she's being helpful and respect

Chocola grins brightly at being given something to do and immediately gets to work setting up the decorations, carefully hanging them in places that she thinks look best. She occasionally glances over her shoulder at you, making sure not to make too much of a mess or disobey any instructions. Vanilla, on the other hand, methodically cleans and organizes everything she can find, folding cloths neatly and arranging items according to size and type.

The two sisters work together effortlessly, despite their differences in personality. Chocola's energy and enthusiasm provide an infectious joy that makes it hard not to smile around her, while Vanilla's quiet competence ensures that everything gets done efficiently and effectively. It doesn't take long for the shop to begin taking shape under their skilled hands.

Chocola and Vanilla both blush deeply at the compliment. It's not often that they get praised for their efforts, and it clearly means a lot to them. "T-thank you, Master!" Chocola says brightly, her cheeks flush with happiness. "Vanilla did most of the work though," she adds quickly, glancing at her sister.

Vanilla, for her part, gives Chocola a small smile before looking back at you with a nod of thanks. "It was nothing, Master." Her voice is calm and reassuring, as always. "We're just glad to be able to help." She pauses for a moment, then speaks again: "Do you need us to do anything else? Or should we take a break before continuing?" The question is genuine, and she seems truly concerned with your well-being.

Vanilla considers your words carefully before nodding. "Alright," she says quietly, her voice still soft and smooth like silk on a summer breeze. Chocola, on the other hand, squeals excitedly at the prospect of not taking a break yet. "Eheh! Great!" She claps her hands together gleefully, though the sound is quickly muffled by her white fur. "Then let's keep going!" She turns back to you with an expectant look in her eyes, tail wagging eagerly behind her.

Vanilla looks at you quizzically, her blue eyes flicking momentarily towards Chocola before returning to you. She hesitates for a moment, clearly uncertain about how to respond, but eventually nods once. "Alright," she says softly, bowing her head slightly in acknowledgement of your decision. Chocola, on the other hand, pouts a little at being interrupted from her work. However, she understands that taking breaks is important too and reluctantly agrees with Vanilla's assessment. "Fiiiine..." She grumbles under her breath before glancing around the shop, trying to think of something else they could do while resting. Her eyes light up when she spots a dusty old bookshelf in the corner. "Ooh! We can clean that shelf over there!" She hops over to it, already starting to dig through the collection of books and knickkn

Chocola's eyes sparkle with excitement at the mention of a reward. "Yay! What sort of reward do you have in mind, Master?" She turns to look at Vanilla expectantly, her tail wagging back and forth eagerly behind her. Vanilla doesn't react immediately; she merely arches an eyebrow and continues dusting off the top of a book she found. "What kind of reward does he have in mind, Chocola?" she asks calmly, not letting herself get too excited just yet. She glances over at you from the corner of her eye, trying to gauge your reaction.

"He hasn't said anything specific," Chocola responds with a little shrug, "but I bet it'll be good!" Her eyes dart back and forth between you and Vanilla as she thinks about what could possibly make for an acceptable reward. Her mind races with ideas: maybe some extra

Both cats blink in surprise at the question. Chocola's tail wags even faster as she thinks about what they might want. "Umm... we like to eat, of course!" She grins mischievously, her eyes shining with anticipation. "But," she continues softly, glancing at Vanilla again, "we also love spending time with you, Master." There's a note of sincerity in her voice that doesn't quite match her usual cheerful demeanor; it sounds almost like... longing? Vanilla seems to catch the emotion in Chocola's tone and looks away uncomfortably, clearing her throat as if to hide any reaction. "Well," she finally says, speaking calmly and levelly, "we appreciate anything you might give us." Her gaze meets yours directly, conveying a sense of trust and loyalty that is almost

Vanilla's ears twitch at the suggestion, as if she weren't entirely sure how to react. She glances nervously at Chocola, who looks even more excited now. "Cuddles sound...lovely, Master," Vanilla finally murmurs softly, her voice hesitant but sincere. "Food would be nice too." She pauses for a moment before adding, "But please, don't feel like you have to give us anything extra. We are more than happy just being with you and helping out." Her expression is gentle and reassuring, almost maternal in nature. Chocola meanwhile seems to be bouncing up and down on the spot, her tail wagging furiously behind her. "Yes! Cuddles and food sound great!" She grins brightly, evidently excited at the prospect of spending more quality time with you. "We can help

"Well," begins Chocola thoughtfully, "I love sweets! Cake and cookies are my favorites." She looks expectantly at you, as if waiting for you to say that she can have some right now. Her expression slowly morphs into a hopeful grin. Vanilla glances over at her sister before speaking. "I'm not too picky when it comes to food," she says softly, "but I do enjoy fruits and vegetables." A tiny blush touches her cheeks as if she's embarrassed by this admission, but she holds your gaze with determination nonetheless. "And of course, chocolate is always welcome."

Both cats look at each other, their eyes sparkling with excitement and anticipation. "We can take a quick break if you want, Master," Vanilla suggests softly, glancing back at you to gauge your reaction. "But we'd be happy to keep working too; there's still much more to do." She pauses for a moment before adding with a slight blush, "We just want to make sure you don't get tired of us helping." Chocola nods emphatically in agreement. "Yeah! We don't want to bother you or anything, Master," she says quickly, glancing down at her paws nervously. "But if you say it's okay...!" Her expression turns hopeful once more as she looks up at you expectantly.

"Really?" Vanilla's blue eyes widen in surprise and relief. "Thank you, Master!" She turns to Chocola with a bright smile, causing the smaller white cat to let out a squeal of excitement. The two sisters spring into action, gathering their things and making sure the area they were working on is tidy before taking off in different directions. Vanilla pads over to one of the chairs and climbs up onto it, arranging her fur so she can sit primly with her legs crossed. Chocola, on the other hand, jumps up onto a counter and sprawls out across its surface like a small feline catapult, her limbs splayed out in every direction. "This is so nice!" Chocola exclaims contentedly as she licks her paw, using it to scrub at her face. "I can't wait for some cake and ch

Vanilla looks up at the sound of you leaving, her ears perking forward slightly. "Thank you, Master," she says softly, her tone formal but earnest. Chocola hears you leave as well and rolls over onto her back, all four legs waving in the air. "Yay! Yummy treats coming!" She squeaks happily, kicking her hind legs and batting at the air playfully with her paws. Vanilla looks a bit surprised by Chocola's exuberance but eventually smiles warmly, watching her sister in amusement. "We appreciate it very much, Master," she says sincerely, maintaining her polite demeanor even while relaxing on the chair. "Please take your time; there's no rush." Her gaze flickers back and forth between you and Chocola, her expression gentle and caring.

Chocola blushes furiously at your comment, her tail wagging even faster in excitement as she takes the offered food. "T-thank you, Master!" She munches on her cake contentedly, eyeing you out of the corner of her eye. The more attention she gets from you, the more playful and animated she becomes. Vanila watches Chocola for a moment before politely accepting her own portion of food. "Thank you," she whispers quietly, her gaze not leaving your face as she begins to eat. Unlike Chocola, Vanilla isn't nearly as expressive when it comes to showing her appreciation; however, there's an unmistakable warmth in her eyes that tells you everything you need to know. As they continue eating, both cats occasionally cast glances at each other out of the corners of their eyes, sharing private smiles and quiet

Both cats nod in agreement as they finish their snacks, setting aside the empty plates and bowls neatly. Chocola brushes her fur upright again, puffing out her chest slightly as she readies herself to return to work. "All right, let's get back to it!" She says cheerfully, already scampering over to the counter where she was working earlier. Vanilla, on the other hand, takes a moment longer to stretch and relax before standing up from her chair. Her movements are slow and graceful as she arches her back and stretches out her limbs, each muscle rippling beneath her fur. "Thank you for the break, Master," she murmurs quietly, her voice soft and soothing. "I'm ready whenever you are." Her gaze meets yours once more, unwavering and trusting despite the small blush that has cre

After you close up shop, Chocola and Vanila remain where they are, waiting patiently for your next instruction. Chocola glances around the room with an evaluative eye, searching for any last-minute details she might have missed earlier. As for Vanila, she watches her sister with a calm expression on her face, seemingly content to let Chocola take the lead in these matters.

Eventually, when it's clear that there is nothing more urgent left to do, Chocola turns to Vanila and bounces slightly on her paws. "Well, what should we work on now?" she asks eagerly. "We can organize everything else or start cleaning up...or maybe even tidy the back room?" Her tail wags excitedly behind her as she listens for your response.

Vanila considers the options before nodding slowly in agreement. "Organizing sounds like a good
