Hi. Keisha, isn't it?
Oh, hello. Yep, you're right.- You're Temuera, right?
- I think I've seen you on my sister's Facebook page.
- Yeah, that'll be me.
- I work with your sister at the local café.
- She's a server and I'm a barista there.
- Nice to meet you in the flesh, Temuera.
- I heard you make a mean coffee.
- Well, we'd like to think so.
- Anyway, what brings you here?
- This is sort of my local and it's the first time I've seen you here.
- We're having a bit of a send-off for one of my managers, who is shouting the team a few drinks.
- Nice!
- Where is she off to?
- Across the ditch.
- Moving over to our Aussie branch in Melbourne.
- Really!?
- I was born there.
- Ah, moved here to Wellington when I was in primary school.
- Interesting!
- Well, I better get back to the guys.
- They'll be wondering where I've gone.
- Sure.
- Well, it's been nice to meet you, Keisha.
- You, too, Temuera.
