Thanks for sharing!
Now I'm waiting for
GingerSweetGirl 's comment on the hat with genuine curiosity
(I'm the worst when it comes to fashion and such, remember the whale tail...)
The appearance of Leah in the story is an interesting twist for the upcoming event. Just as reminder she is "at an age where she'd just be graduating" and she is the oldest of the 4 children. She "is currently in Japan for the language experience". Ava "home-schooled her for many years as well, and it led to her getting a scholarship at an elite university!" (from the first meeting with Ava)
What role she will be playing in the story? It probably depends on whether she manage to "escape" from her mother strict education or not. She has been abroad, she could have lived and open up her eyes and being much more open if not rebelling against her mother education. Or she could have been abroad in closed environment anyway, like private school of sort, and have the same naiveness of her brothers when it comes to some subjects.
In the latter case she could be an "ally" of Sophia trying to help her with her intents of educating the boys or even need some eduction herself.
Or, in the first case, she could be a sneaky one and suspecting that Sophia is going around the rules.
In any case this add some interest in the event story-wise, maybe she won't have a big role already in this event as there is one just the next day.
In the same spirit I'm curious to see *if* and, in case, when Ava will be involved somehow. If she starts to suspect something or not. But probably it is too early, provided it will ever happen.
As for the teaser itself, that should be alternative to the tutoring route. I guess it is also alternative for the next event, Sophia/Sam, because that one is likely to happen at home or Sam's house. Sending Sophia out for a coffee and just come back for Sam is kind of strange, isn't it? Sophia/Sam can/should start from Sophia relaxing on the couch or coming back from the tutoring. Unless she meets Sam somewhere else, but where? And not to mention the continuity and the different dresses...
Finally, on a frivolous note, next teaser, I'm curious to see Sophia's dress choice for this event, after all the discussions we had for the previous updates. There will be another change of dress, that's almost sure, but I don't think she will wear the same dress as in the cafe. Damn, Sophia, there is a planet to save!
