raises an eyebrow. "Hallo? Turkey?"
a bit surprised at who's calling. "Austria!" The surprise was probably evident in his voice. "What can I do for you?"
notices the tone in his voice. "I was wondering if you could help me.. with your coffee maker."
pauses as he lets the words sink in. "You could get it to work?" He laughs a bit. "I'll be over in a few." He says before hanging up and as

just isn't generally one to show many emotions. "Ah yes." He nodded and stepped out of the way for the other.
enters the house and heads to the kitchen. He knew the house fairly well by now. "I'll teach you how to use it and use it properly to boot."
nods a bit. "Danke." He was thinking about how to repay the other for this.
doesn't need to be repaid. He arrives in the kitchen and spots the coffee maker but doesn't spot the coffee grinds. "Where's the coffee?"
"Ah.. In the cupboard." He opened the door and took out the bag. "Here."
takes it. "Thanks." He opens the bag and places it on the counter. "How strong do you like your coffee?"
that over. "Not too strong.. But not too weak.. In the middle I guess."
nods. "Alright, so first things first we need to add the proper amount of coffee grinds to the pot." He adds a few spoonfuls.
watches him closely making sure to pay attention.
then measures out the water so it was porportional to two cups since he might as well make himself one as well. "Then you measure the water
for the amount of cups your making and pour it in with the coffee grinds."
nods to him again. "Okay."
"Did you want any sugar added? And if so how much?"
nods to him. "Two teaspoons, please."
nods before adding four. "Alrigth so now we'll put the pot on the stove on moderate and make sure it doesn't boil. We want it to heat up at
an even pace until it's really hot."
had also stirred the sugar before putting the pot on the stove.
watches him, so THAT was what you had to do.. How come he hadn't thought of this before?

grins. "You can adjust the sweetness depending on your mood but make sure to add the sugar and stur before you heat it up."
nods to him. "I didn't know what I was doing wrong, but I wasn't putting the sugar in." He chuckled feeling foolish.
laughs lightly. "That could do the trick but can't say I'm complaining. Free coffee for me."
nods to him. "Exactly." He sighed slightly. "Sorry that I don't have any treats to offer.. I kind of lost a bet."
doesn't mind at all. He wasn't hungry anyway. "You lost a bet? What kind of bet did you make?"
frowns a bit. "I said if something didn't fit, then I wouldn't eat cake for a month."
gasps. That was a hefty bet. He would have never made such a bet if he wasn't absolutely sure he was going to win. "I'm so sorry."
sure he was going to win.. If it wasn't for the pants he would have. "It's fine." He shook his head, it was odd to just try and break an_
