Jessica
Tentatively, he listened to the petite woman and took in all of her words. Though what caught his ear the most was the fact that she had used their brand before. It was a loyal customer—perhaps someone he could get closer to.

"I'm sure with the usage of our branding you could.. Possibly work with us or have us look over it. Maybe we can help you get to a better financial standing?" 

Mathias shifted his hand under the water, hoping to gently cup her hand with his own to show a sense of compassion. He didn't look the part but, indeed, he acted the part as he kept the soft and understanding gaze.
Jerry
*She would think for a moment looking at him thinking to herself*

"Hmmm doesn't sound like a bad idea, although I like working at the maid cafe but this is a big opportunity for me. Let's say this I'll work with you but I'm still going to work at the maid cafe. I am pretty good financially I'm just saying making my own business would be fun! You have yourself a deal my friend"
Jessica
His hand wrapped around hers softly as she spoke about the idea;

"That should be fine—it is a cafe after all, or is it just that?"

He had heard rumors about the cafe having a more.. Relieving element though, Mathias didn't want to touch on it just yet. The mixed hot spring, though, did bring up some dormant and quite primitive feelings; even thoughts. Sitting in this spring he would realize that he wanted to get to know Ashlyn more.
Jerry
"I suppose you heard the rumors didn't you? Unfortunately as part of my contract I can't confirm nor deny the rumors. But I can say there is a part of the cafe most people don't know about. So yeah I'd be interested in working with you seems like a big opportunity I can't pass up" 

*She would give him a warm smile*
Jessica
She couldn't confirm nor deny portions of the cafe due to her contract? It sounded like every other business contract such as; no discussing deals outside of work, no discussing the magnitude of their business, etc. Though, Ashlyn had intrigued him as she had now mentioned that she wasn't going to pass up working with him.

"When are you thinking of starting then?"

Mathias tilted his head to the side and awaited her to make a choice as he held her hand. Egging her on would likely piss her off but, could also have the counter effect of showing the deeper side of the cafe.
Jerry
"I'm open to starting whenever. Perhaps tomorrow would be a good time cause I don't work. I am busy in the morning but any time in the afternoon I could be open for an interview"

*Has she held his hand she would smile warmly, she could tell he was curious about the deeper side of the maid cafe. She then thought about what she said earlier and questioned if that was something she wasn't supposed to talk about or she was thinking of something different. She could be wrong*
Jessica
*Open to starting tomorrow.* 

It looked like his poking and prodding would take a little bit longer so, he would try to prompt a response in another way. His hand continued to envelope hers as he shifted himself around and laid back next to her.

"Today been a stressful day for you, Lyn?"

This would be the easiest thing for him to play off of at the moment. Perhaps flirting would get him a similar result as he stared over to her while leaning back against the decoration of the springs.
Jerry
"Yeah you can say that again. Lots of people don't think working at a maid cafe can be stressful if only they knew the truth. I'm usually pretty chill and don't get stressed easily but I have my days. Though sometimes my stress usually leads a little bit of frustration although coming to the hot springs can also let be blow off some steam both figuratively and literally"

*She would laugh at her own joke, as she laughed it was obvious to see the kind a joyful side of her personality. Her laughter was soft and light*
Jessica
He kept a smile as she laughed at her own joke; though he had felt some kind of way—intrigued? If that was the right word anyway. It was rare that he stepped outside of the company to do much, especially when it came to knowing people *Better*. Things such as relationships, intimacy, they were all thrown on the backburner and left him inexperienced.

"Of course it'd be stressful. It's like working an office job of sorts except, you're on your feet all day serving customers."

Mathias nodded in agreement and would let an even wider grin accompany his face as if it was her similar mindset that he enjoyed or if it was the vague representation of the final comment. A thought came to mind as he would give a daring offer;

"*Perhaps we could help each other out with letting off some steam?*"

The man would ask the woman as he sat up and tilted his head over to get a better look at her reaction and hear her thoughts better.
