Tifa makes her way to the Honeybee Inn

As she weaved her way along the path, Tifa felt the eyes of onlookers on her body. This is the response she wanted; she needed to ooze sexuality to impress Andrea Rodea. She reached the entrance to the Honeybee, which was surrounded by men, who crowded around a few beautiful girls in bee costumes. As she walked through the entrance, several of the men turned to watch Tifa walk by.

The rectangular front hall of the inn was filled with people waiting for appointments or entertainment. Tifa approached the counter, and waited for the attendant. He came over to Tifa, and asked, “Can I help you?” Tifa smiled at him and said, “Yes, I’d like to see Andrea Rodea, please.” The attendant chuckled, “Of course you would…you and everyone else in Wall Market. Andrea is VERY busy.” He waved at her, dismissing her. “Wait,” She replied, “Madam M told me to come and see Andrea. I have ‘approval’ from her.” He looked at her more intently, “If you have Madam M’s approval, then that is a different situation. Let me contact Andrea and see what he says. Please wait over there.” Tifa nodded gratefully, and sat along the wall. She watched the attendant text on his phone, hopefully she thought, to Andrea.

Tifa glanced at the checker tiled floor, the huge flower arrangements, and the two bee girls at either side of the front desk. They flirted, winked, and blew kisses to those waiting. See caught the eye of a dark-skinned bee girl, who gave Tifa a wink, and licked her lips. Tifa blushed, and felt a bolt of energy shoot through her body.

The attendant at the desk waved for Tifa to return, and said, “I have heard from Andrea, and he is interested in meeting you. You need to go around back to the stage door, and wait there. Someone will come and let you know what to do.” Tifa thanked him, and rushed out the front entrance.

Passing through the gawking crowds again, she turned right, making her way through a dark alley. A dimly-lit door lay at the end. Tifa turned the handle; a flood of light, perfume, and giggling welcomed her. She was about to enter a world that was foreign to her, but had to play along for the sake of the mission. Was she really going to go through with this?
