The Girl with Eidetic Memory

It was 7 p.m., and I was having a cup of tea while waiting for a buddy to come. I sent a message requesting that they come to the tea house at this hour. He eventually came after a few minutes. 


"Your message seemed serious, so I couldn't say no," he remarked as he sat down in front of me. "What did you want to talk about?" he said. 


"First, have some tea!" I exclaimed as I poured some into the Sakura-designed tea cup in front of him. 


The youngster looked at me blankly, as if he was having flashbacks. 


"Enjoy!" I said as I shifted the cup's handle to the left. He smiled and thanked me, then took the cup handle with his right hand, drinking using his non-dominant hand. "Oh, I thought you were a lefty; I didn't realize you were right-handed," I said. 


"I drink with my right hand on occasion," he stated as he took a sip. I grinned quietly and snickered. "What's funny?" he said, nervously chuckling.
