"Martha, go take a coffee break."

"But Mr Fortescue, I was just about to..."

"Go sit down. At least for ten minutes!" Florean was getting a little exasperated, though Martha's stubbornness was also rather amusing. She was taking her new position as manager very seriously, which was good, he supposed, though her efficiency and dedication scared him perhaps a little. "And call me Florean. Please."

Martha frowned but put down the cloth she had been using to wipe down the counter and made her way out to the back of the dairy to the staff room. A few minutes later, Florean was just finishing the cleaning as a young woman came into the shop.

She recognised him right away and just couldn't contain her grin. It was him! It took her a couple of seconds to realised that she was just standing there like a small child on christmas morning.

"Um, hello," she said, "I'd like some ice cream, please."

"Ice cream. Of course." Florean smiled broadly, moving back from the cheese cabinet to stand behind the counter. "Are you looking for anything in particular?" he asked, trying to size her up and guess what sort of flavour she'd want, though she looked rather excited and Florean couldn't quite get a read on her.

"I've got a bit of a selection at the moment."

Daphne stared at the selection. From the looks of it he had changed his repertoire somewhat since the last time she had visited him in Diagon Alley. What to choose? How to choose???

"Oh Merlin, I want everything..." she blurted, then blushed. "Sorry, that sounded rather greedy and piggish, didn't it?"

It was too difficult to choose. Better to just go with an old favorite, she decided. She could always come back some other time.

"I'd like raspberry and vanilla, please."
