Who: Tifa and Cloud
Status: Closed.
When: 10:00am
Where: Seventh Heaven
What: Yay morning cleaning!!!!



Cleaning a bar after a busy night was a chore no one would ever want, but it was something that Tifa faced quite often. When the bar closed at about 2am, she would tidy up the place a little bit; flip the chairs so they were resting on the table and off the floor, get rid of some of the empty bottles, throw the trash away and so on, but everything else she waited until the next morning. Keeping up with patrons was exhausting enough, and she knew she had to wake up Marlene and Denzel early for school, so getting to bed as soon as possible was the best course of action.

This particular morning was not going to be a fun one, she could sense, due to the fact that the floors were still wet. Some parts were dry from air exposure over night, but there were quite a few spots with puddles. As she investigated it closer... the ceiling was clearly leaking and allowing droplets of water to hit the floor and some of the tables every so often.

"Fantastic..." She muttered quietly as she circled around one of the wet spots on the floor, wondering if the holes were there for a while, or if the amount of rain Edge had received had anything to do with wearing down the shingles. Nevertheless, it would have to be fixed once the rain stopped. Whenever that would be. She walked over the bar and grabbed a few empty glasses out of the small dishwasher and placed them carefully where the water was dripping to halt the mess somewhat. It looked awful and she wasn't happy about it, but it was the best that she could do for the time being.

She wondered why Cloud didn't return home sometime during the night, but she could only assume that it was an unexpected stay somewhere. It was raining extremely hard, so it wasn't illogical that he had to stop at an inn if he had to do a delivery at a place some distance away. Driving in the pouring rain with a motorcycle did not sound like it would be particularly pleasant. Usually he was pretty good about leaving notes, but it was more the fact that she was curious to why there was water in the kitchen when she returned the previous night. Thinking for a second, she concluded she would have to go check the kitchen again later to see if the kitchen ceiling was leaking as well.

Grabbing the broom that was behind the bar, she began sweeping the floor and dodging the glasses as she went along.
