"Today as well went terribly bad..." Mafumafu spoke, as he wiped a a tear.

The boy has been trying his best to impress the people who doubted him but that was the problem, those people don't deserve knowing his worth too bad he can't realize that.

He had always loved cafes, and he would always look at them in wonder while walking back home, but one particular cafe— a desolate cafe near the end of street—piqued his interest.

Mafumafu stood in front of the cafe, mustering up all his courage to open the door. He took a deep breath and timidly opened it as if a ghost will pop out and jump at him any minute.

"Hello...?" His voiced echoed into the empty cafe. He was prepared to leave then when suddenly, a figure suddenly emerged from the counter. "UWAAAAAAA!!! A GHOST!!!" Mafumafu exclaimed, jolting and was in the verge of crying as he did.

Unfazed, the figure replied in a monotone voice, "What can I get you sir?"

He awkwardly walked towards the counter, "M-May I order a Rose Bud T-Tea please..." he said, avoiding eye contact.

"Huh? Are you an idiot?"

"E-Eh?"

"See the menu here?" The figure— rather the barista asked, in an annoyed manner as he points the menu written in chalk, "See any tea there? No? Of course, we don't serve tea here you idiot."

Mafumafu bowed accidentally banging his head on the hard wood of the counter which caused him to screech in pain. He covered the part were it hurted with both of his hands as he bit his lower to lip to refrain his yelps escaping from his mouth.

"Geez, you're really an idiot," the barista spoke, letting out a sigh as he massaged his forehead, "So are you gonna order or leave?"

"A-Ah," with that, Mafumafu observed the menu trying to figure out what to order once he finally decided he looked at the barista still avoiding eye contact, "I-I'll have a Hokkaido Milktea then..."

After nodding in response the barista started to make the milktea the albino ordered. Mafumafu who has nothing to do, observed as the barista do his thing. Mafumafu was quite amazed by how professional he looked like while doing so, it was amazing. Soon after the barista was done he served it in a glass cup and handed it to Mafumafu with a paper straw.

"That will be 55¥ plus 5¥ for your stupidity," the barista said, tapping his fingers on the counter.

"Eh, ah, but this costs 60¥ so b-basically-" before Mafumafu was able to finish his sentence the barista cutted him off.

"Just drink."

Before taking a sip he swirled it and thought it was a good idea to use a paper straw instead of a plastic one. After that, he took a sip. His eyes widened in suprise.

"T-This tastes so good..." he mumbled, not knowing it was still audible for the barista.

"Idiot, of course after all it was me who made it," the barista said, proudly as he looked at him with a smirk.

"S-Sir-"

"Soraru."

"Huh," Mafumafu titled his head to the side with a puzzled face.

"Call me Soraru," The barista said, as his smirk faded and his facial expression went back to the annoyed one.

"S-Soraru-san... Soraru-san!" Mafumafu yelled, liking how the name rolls on his tongue.

"Stop saying my name you idiot and wouldn't it be proper if you were to say your name as well?" Soraru said, as he crossed his arms.

"A-Ah, y-yes, my name is M-Ma-Mafumafu..." Mafumafu replied, as he started fiddling nervously.

"Do you have that stuttering disorder?" Soraru asked, raising an eyebrow as he was starting get annoyed by the stuttering.

"Eh, a-ah, n-no..."

"You just stuttered."

"T-That's because-!"

"There you go again."

"Y-You're...! Mean!"

"And what are you gonna do about it?"

Mafumafu stayed shut at that question as he feels tears are starting to form on his eyes. He bit his lower lip and started at Soraru for the first time.

"Oi! Don't cry!" Soraru yelled, as he started lowkey panicking.

Mafumafu nodded as he wiped the tears off of his eyes, "Sorry, I just got a bit... dramatic there."

"You don't really have that disorder."

"Eh."

"You just spoke without stuttering you idiot," Soraru said, partly sounding like he's complementing the albino, "But your voice is really high for a guy though, did you by any chance swallowed a 1 liter of helium?"

"No of course!" Mafumafu excalimed, as he shook his head and puffed his cheeks.

"Have you undergo adolescent?"

"Of course! I'm 16!"

"You don't look like one."

"S-Stop teasing!" Mafumafu exclaimed, in frustration he drank the whole glass of milktea in one go, "Foooo!" was the sound he made after he did so with a redish face.

"Oi stop that, you might get drunk," Soraru spoke, with a teasing tone. A smirk creeping on his face.

"I can't get d-drunk just by drinking m-milktea!" exclaimed the albino who was now looking away from Soraru with his arms crossed and his cheeks puffed. Mafumafu suddeny fished his phone at off his pocket and checked the time, "Ah, I'm sorry I n-need to go. B-Bye and thank you for the d-delicious m-milktea."

"Next time bring some friends over," Soraru said, as he lazily waved his free hand.

Mafumafu, who was about to open the door stopped and said, "I'm s-sorry... I-I... don't have friends..."

Soraru stayed silent and watched as Mafumafu bow and left the cafe thinking that kid was something you don't usually see as he was his first customer to actually stay in the cafe despite all those insults he said. Now, he was thinking if that kid will come back again.

"You know what... only having him around his enough," Soraru spoke, unconciously smiling to himself at his own statement.

×××

As Soraru was silently chilling the chimes rang causing him to quickly turn his head only to see a certain albino face flat on the floor.

"What the hell..." Soraru mumbled, as he went towards the albino who hasn't moved yet, "Oi," Soraru called, out.

Mafumafu looked up with teary eyes with puffed cheeks, "I-It hurts..."

With a sigh, Soraru extended out his hand, "Stand up you clumsy idiot," Mafumafu without hesitation took it after so, Soraru pulled Mafumafu up. He didn't put much force on it as the albino helped himself get up and he's very light.

"Does it still hurt?" Soraru asked, not bothering to look at Mafumafu as he walked back inside the counter.

"I-It still hurts but... I-I can handle it! T-Thank you for you c-concern," Mafumafu replied, sitting down at one of the chairs near the counter and putting down his things on the other one.

"Pfft- concern? I could careless you know, I'm not concerned even the least," Soraru snickered, with an expression that says 'that's what you thought' or that's what he at least thought as he crossed his arms.

"T-That's what you say but your face tells otherwise," Mafumafu returned, still avoiding eye contact with Soraru who was now a blushing mess as he attempt to cover his face but sadly, no vail.

"Soraru-san don't cover your face," Mafumafu spoke, causing Soraru to weaken his arms that were covering his face. Mafumafu gently moved Soraru's arms out of the way, "With that handsome face I bet thousands of girls are after you right now," he continued unconciously smiled for the first time.

Soraru felt he was in some kind of spell as he felt he wanted to stop time to treasure the smile that left him dazzled and amazed.

"Soraru-san? Soraru-san! Soraru-san!!" Mafumafu yelled, as Soraru has been staring at him for quite some time.

Soraru looked away once he realized that he was staring, he awkwardly scratched his nape and said, "Well... you have a really nice smile."

Mafumafu was suprised about the compliment the tsundere male said, little words such as that already made him feel his heart thumping loudly.

"Don't get used to it."

Mafumafu only nodded in response as he was still embarrassed.

"What do you want for today?" Soraru asked, trying to make the awkward silence between them go away.

"Um... c-cookies and cream frappe please," Mafumafu replied, trying hard not to embarrass himself again.

Soon after, Soraru was done making the frappe. After handing it Mafumafu of course, payed for it.

"It makes me wonder why not that much people visit this cafe when the drinks here are amazing," Mafumafu spoke, out of the blue after taking a sip from his frappe.

"Yeaaah about that... I kinda scare the customers away," Soraru replied, as he scratched his head.

"Oh..."

"Do you love tea?" Asked Soraru, not knowing what else to say.

"Mhm! I usually drink tea everyday but I guess it's better to try other drinks as well," Mafumafu replied, as be swirled the straw mixing the whip cream with the rest of the beverage.

Soon after, Mafumafu finished his frappe and left the cafe of course bidding goodbye before he did so. Soraru who was now left alone decided to close the cafe early to avoid more customers.

After knowing that Mafumafu likes tea, Soraru started researching things about it. With a smile, Soraru knew Mafumafu was gonna be surpised tomorrow.

×××

"Welcome," Soraru said, in an enthusiastic voice which caused confusion from the albino who sat at his usual sit.

"Uh, um, thanks?" replied the albino who was feeling kinda uncomfortable as we all know the older dude isn't the cheerful type of guy, wouldn't consider him as the gloomy one but always the irritated one.

"So what's your order for today?" Soraru asked, seemingly impatient as he kept tapping his fingers on the wooden counter that serves to divide them.

"Uh, I'll order..." Mafumafu didn't scan the menu but said the first thing he found intresting which was, "Caramel Frappe please!"

"We don't have caramel," Soraru replied, sounding a bit disappointed as he corssed his arms.

Mafumafu tilted his head at confusion when he can literally see the caramel powder besides the other flavors on the cabinet, "But I can see you have a full sto-"

"Order something different."

"O-kay?" with that Mafumafu once again ordered the second thing he found interesting, "Classic Milktea!"

"Something else."

"Cappuccino?"

"Nope."

"Black Forest Milk Tea!"

"Nu-uh."

"Chocolate Milk?"

"No."

"Wintermelon!-"

"You idiot!" Soraru exclaimed, looking pissed off at something which Mafumafu don't know.

"W-What did I do?" Mafumafu asked, feeling guilty for something or perhaps nothing at all.

"Can't you see that?!" Soraru yelled, pointing at one of the chalkboards.

Mafumafu looked at it and was shook, "Eh, tea-"

"That's right you idiot!"

"Why are you angry?!" Mafumafu asked, sounding so confused.

"Because! You didn't noticed it..." Soraru replied, mumbling the rest after 'because' but despite so, Mafumafu heard it.

Mafumafu stayed silent. He felt his face burning up and turning red, was this because of embarrassment?

"So what do you want?" Soraru asked, sounding like his usual self.

Mafumafu, this time, scan the tea section and smiled when he saw the tea he accidentally first ordered in the cafe, "Rose Bud Tea?"

"Coming right up," this time Soraru, sounded happy after hearing the albino's response, seemingly satisfied

×××

Weeks has passed and the albino visits the cafe everyday as part of his daily routine . Ever since then, Mafumafu's awkward self has been appearing less in front of Soraru.

"Achoo!!"

Mafumafu sniffed. He hugged himself hoping for some heat as he was already shivering in cold.

"You're really an idiot! Why would you run your way here without bringing any umbrella! Look how drenched you are!" Soraru scolded, carrying a towel with a staff's uniform as there were no normal ones.

"I can't possibly brake my personal record of coming here everyday right?" Mafumafu replied.

With that, Soraru dried Mafumafu's hair ruffling the towel on Mafumafu's hair.

"Mafu, remove your clothes."

"Ok-wait, what?"

The two stared at each other with a stoic face for a while not even one of them bothering to blink an eye as they're faces turn red.

"Take off your clothes," Soraru said, once again sounding a but hesitant at first.

"W-Why..."

"Because you're clothes are drenched and you'll get sick if you keep 'em on," Soraru replied, putting down the towel and handing Mafumafu the clothes, "Don't be an idiot and t-take off your.... your clothes here! Go to the b-bathroom!"

Mafumafu found the situation peculiar as Soraru never stuttered before, but he kind of did find it cute.

Mafumafu went inside the bathroom and after some minutes he went back out wearing an oversized uniform

"How is it?"

Soraru was speechless and his mouth was agape. Once he realized he was in a dazzle he quickly turned away and covered his mouth.

"You look... fine..." Soraru replied.

"You hesitated."

"S-So what?"

Mafumafu smiled warmly that made Soraru's heart skip a beat and said, "It's cute."

After hours and hours of talking it was time for Mafumafu to go home. Soraru insisted that he'll wash Mafumafu's clothes and made Mafumafu keep on the uniform, of course Mafumafu didn't like the idea but he can't go against it.

"See you tomorrow Soraru-san!!" Mafumafu exclaimed, as he waved his hands energetically at the air.

"Yeah, see you tomorrow," replied Soraru, as he waved back with a small smile planted on his face.

As Mafumafu was about to walk away he encountered a guy in a suit walking towards the cafe and made him thought, 'So I am not his only customer... good for him'

"Mr. Soraru, you know this can't keep up. I've been monitoring your cafe for these past few weeks and he's the only customer you've been accepting. If you won't stop this and get some customers we have to forcefully shut down this cafe," spoke the guy in suit as he slammed his hands on the counter creating a loud bam that echoed through the empty cafe.

Soraru stared at the guy with a blank face. He knew he couldn't continue doing it but, he just wants to see the albino. He shook his head and faced reality. The only reason he build this place was to help him pay his grandmother's hospital bills and with Mafumafu being his only customer that won't do.

"I'll see... what I can do about it..." Soraru replied, as he looked away.

"Good, if you won't earn 40,000¥ by the end of the next week, I'm sorry but we have to forcefully shut down this cafe."

"40,000¥?! But I even barely make customers!" Soraru shouted, completely frustrated.

"It's not that you barely, you don't."

With that Soraru, was speechless. As Soraru was lost in his thoughts, the guy left not even saying another word. The guy was right, he took a deep breathe and chose to think about what's good for the cafe.

×××

"Time to do this..." Soraru muttered, as he stretched before going outside of the cafe.

He took a deep breathe, "Urata, you're the only who I can trust enough to not destroy the cafe. Sakata, Amtasuki, and Kashitaro you're with me," he spoke.

Soraru asked for help from his friends and luckily enough the two were willing to help as much as I can. In the process though, the two teased Soraru quite a bit as Soraru doesn't normally really ask for help, he considered it a weak thing to do.

"Hai!" reply the four in unison as they gave Soraru a salute.

Soraru handed the three fliers to give out after so he said, "Let's go now."

The four went out of the cafe leaving Urata all alone inside. What he was doing there all alone was nothing special, let's jut say he's trying his best not to brake anything. Meanwhile, the four tried to give out the fliers as much as they can in the end, they did manage to give out some and make them as their customer.

"Yahoo!! I manage to give out all!!" Amatsuki exclaimed, as he jumped in the air throwing his fist to the air.

"That's great Amatsuki-san! I did as well!" Kashitarou commented, as he jumped along with Amatsuki who was acting like a kid with all the jumping and cheering.

"Eeeh!! I just managed to give half of it..." Sakata spoke, looking at the left fliers on his hand.

"It's alright Sakata-kun! You did well!" replied Amatsuki who gabe his red haired friend a pat at the back.

"And besides knowing Amatsuki he most likely shoved the fliers to people without even waiting for their replies," Soraru spoke as he crossed his arms with an uninterested face.

"Haa?! I didn't! Besides judging by that much of fliers you have in hand you didn't manage to give out even one!" Amatsuki replied, as he puffed his cheeks out of angriness.

Soraru was startled with Amatsuki's comment. He quickly faced his back towards Amatsuki with an embarrassed face. Yes, he didn't manage to give some as people igmore him and some just get creeped out from the vibe he's giving off.

"Ha! It's true isn't it!"

"C'mon Ama-chan, stop teasing poor Soraru-san," Urata spoke, chuckling a bit in the end of his sentence.

"Said by the person who didn't do anything but sat on that goddman chair being useless like what he is," Soraru replied, as he gave Urata one of his death stare that gave every person chills.

"Oh c'mon Soraru-san, you know that death stare of yours doesn't work for me," Urata snickered, resting his head in his palm.

"Doesn't change the fact that you are useless."

"But you were the one who assigned me to do this."

Soraru ignored the small brunette and went towards the glass door to flip the sign saying 'Close' to 'Open'. After so, he sat down along with his friends.

"Yo Soraru-san, where's the salt?" Urata asked, observing the things around him.

"Right above you," Soraru replied, sounding completely uninterested. Like usual.

"No it's not! Nothing's above me!"

Soraru looked at Urata with a 'are-you-serious' look on his face, his eyes glaring at the burnette as if he wants to punch the little brunette any time soon.

"Okay, okay! Sheesh, old man can't take no jokes," Urata looked away from Soraru with a 'hmph'.

"This wise old man couldn't figure out it was a joke due to how lame it was," Soraru replied, rolling his eyes at his friend's childishness.

"Oof!" Amatsuki laughed, hitting the table as if he was going mad.

"Ama-chan!"

Suddenly the bell rang and the door opened, the friends quickly turned their heads to see who it was.

"Yahoo! Our first custo-" Amatsuki was suddenly cutted off by Soraru who quickly stood up.

"Mafu," Soraru spoke, sounding a bit cheerful. If you don't know him well you wouldn't tell the difference but you do, of course it's very visible.

"Eh, you know that customer Soraru-san?" Amatsuki asked, looking at the raven male who walked towards the albino with a very visible faint smile on his face. Amatsuki quietly chuckled, oh something is up.

"Sorar-Oh, ah... Soraru-san has companions today... how unusual," Mafumafu mumbled, enough for Soraru to hear.

"Don't worry Mafu, unlike me they're nice," Soraru replied, giving Mafumafu a pat on the head.

Mafumafu chuckled, which is music to Soraru's ears. Ah, how that made his heart beat so loud. He quickly faced his back at Mafumafu with a red face, scared that Mafumafu might hear his heart beat at how much noise it's making.

"Eh, Soraru-san?"

"Ahem! Ahem!" With that, Mafumafu flinched in suprise letting out an audible quiet squeak, "I'm Amatsuki!" yelled the red eyed brunette doing a peace sign with his hand.

"A-Ah, e-h, I-I..."

"Are we gonna do introductions?" Urata asked, with a huge grin on his face.

"Yes!"

"Let's keep it short as possible and let's not add unnecessary words so Mafu-kun here won't get confused and all."

"Okay! I'll go second!" Sakata exclaimed, raising his hand, "I'm Sakata! They call me Aho no Sakata for I dunno reasons."

"Urata is my name and Wataru is my last name and that guy with a fox mask is Kashitarou."

"Urata-san, why did you introduce me whe-"

"ANYWAYS, welcome!!" Sakata yelled, giving Mafumafu a wink with a matching finger gun.

"Sakata-kun, no."

"Yeah, don't."

"N o."

"You guys are no fun," Sakata commented, as he pouted in a childish manner.

"No, you were just too cringey Sakata-san," replied Amatsuki, who had this weird disgusted facial expression planted in his face.

The others nodded their heads in agreement, meanwhile Soraru glared at the red haired idiot

The bell suddenly rang again.

"This is open right?" asked a girl who seems to be in middle school, with a glass door you can see she has friends with.

"Of course! Come in!" Amatsuki replied, waving at them and as much as possible giving them a warm smile.

As soon as the kids came in soon came following by other people until the cafe was almost full of people.

Seeing everyone was starting to get busy, Mafumafu stared at the thin air the thought of, 'Should I say to Soraru-san I'll be going now? But he's too busy' kept ringing in his head not deciding yet what to choose. Once he did, he stood up and left the cafe not wanting to be in a place with full of people. As Mafumafu exited the cafe, the feeling of awkwardness remained. Too bad, he thought they were both alone.

Meanwhile, back at the cafe....

Soraru watched as Mafumafu left without saying anything. He wanted to walk towards the albino but everyone was refraining him to do so, he wanted to shout Mafumafu's name but was afraid of the outcome.

"Soraru-san!!! Four Cappuccinos, order up!" Amatsuki yelled, resting his arms on the counter looking at the notepad he has on his hands, "By the way, I just saw your friend leave the cafe about a minute ago?"

Soraru who was on the process of making the order stopped and took a quick glance outside. He took a deep breathe, "Really? I didn't know," he replied, pretending to not know a thing.

"You probaby know this already but, that little friend of yours is cute."

With that, Soraru stopped and looked at Amatsuki who had a huge grin on his face, "Knew it, don't worry Soraru-san! He might be cute and all but I am only interested in girls."

"So?"

"You like him," Amatsuki replied, "..and you're gay."

"O-WHAT?!"

Some people who heard it stared at Soraru with confused expressions on their faces.

"I don't and I'm not. Now scram off and be useful," Soraru looked away as he said that, not wanting for Amatsuki to see the blush on his face.

Anatsuki groaned in boredom he took a quick glance of Soraru and saw his ears tinted in red. Well so much for trying to hide the blush Soraru.

×××

Soraru was about to open the store but he continued to stare outside as if waiting for someone, which he was.

"Oi! Old man! What are you doing?" asked Urata who has his hand on his waist with a puzzled face.

With that, Soraru brake out his trance and opened the cafe without saying anything in reply.

"He's been like that for weeks, still wondering why," Amatsuki whispered, to his friends in order for Soraru not to hear what they are saying.

"Maybe something happened between him and uuh someone?" Sakata replied, shrugging.

"Then why would he always look like he's dead inside when staring outside like all the time?" Urata asked, furrowing his eyebrows. He might be having fun when he sees the raven male guy in a bad mood but because of him.

"Let's not bother Soraru-san, we all know the guy calms down when he's all al-" as Kashitarou was talking, Urata suddenly cutted in.

"Let's bother him."

"As much as I want to piss off Soraru-san lmao, maybe we should let him be," Amatsuki commented, putting a hand at the small brunette's shoulder.

"Aww oh welp, guess I'll take a break from pissing off old dick there."

"What the heck Urata-san?!"

"Urata-san please refrain from-" Kashitarou spoke only to get cutted again.

"Welp let's get back to work."

With that Urata started walking to the spot he always were, Sakata who was too confused too keep with the conversation did the same.

Kashitarou suddenly spoke, "Is it just me but am I purposely getting cut o-"

"Yeah," Amatsuki quickly replied, soon after that he went back to doing his job.

With a sigh, Kashitarou proceeded to do his job trying to hold back his tears.

×××

"Haaaiii, see you tomorrow Soraru-san!!"

"Yeah see you again tomorrow, old man."

"Good night!"

"Bai baiiii"

Soraru's friends bid goodbye as they all weak the opposite way he walks another week and there was still no sign of Mafumafu. He reached his home, he layed down his bed looking side wards and saw Mafumafu's neatly folded uniform that he forgot to give back. It hurted him. Why did Mafumafu stopped visiting him at the cafe? It doesn't matter if he didn't bought anything, just by him being there is fine.

"I'll get used to this..." he mumbled to himself as he covered both of his hands with his hands.

"I KNEW I COULDN'T GET USED TO THIS!" Soraru screeched, as he tugged his hair roughly pacing back at forth in the restroom.

Oh well, his screeched was loud for everyone outside the restroom to hear. The four looked at each other and nodded as if they had a conversation through mind.

"Okay old balls, what's your problem?" Urata asked, slamming the door open revealing a distressed Soraru, the others peaked through and stared at the raven male.

"NOTHING!" Soraru replied, in a disarray and screaming manner.

"Yup, that's completely nothing let's go," Urata was about to close the door but slammed it open again, "Jk, WHAT THE HECK IS YOUR PROBLEM?!"

"WHY DO YOU WANNA KNOW?"

The two kept shouting at each other until Amatsuki stopped as they were bothering some of the customers. The day ended with Urata and Soraru bickering again.

×××

"Mafumafu, when will you get here?"

"Mom, I'm about to head out now don't worry, I'll see you soon," Mafumafu chirped, a faint smile plastered on his face as he grabbed his luggage.

"Careful on your way here honey."

"Yes mom, I'll contact you soon again. Bye for now," after hearing his mom's response he ended the call with a sigh putting his phone in his pocket.

"Well... time to leave this place..." he muttered, taking one last glance at the small shady apartment he was living in.

Mafumafu headed out after so, calling a taxi to bring him to the train station. On his way there he saw a glimpse of the cafe from far away. That was when he remembered something.

"Ah... I forgot to say at least bye to Soraru-san..." he thought, staring out of the window with a pained smile.

His way to his parents's hometown was quiet journey. Of course, you wouldn't wonder why. Once he reached his stop he fished out of his phone and dialed his mother's number.

"Hey mom," he spoke, looking around the station in sight for his parents.

"Mafu! Are you finally here?"

"Mhm! I am," replied Mafumafu as he smiled at his mother's cheerful tone.

"Where are you?"

"Mom, let me do the searching for you and dad."

"Nu-uh! You must be tired!"

"No mom, I'm alright! I'm not even the tired the least!" Mafumafu exclaimed, with a proud tone putting his free hand at his hip.

His mother let out a soft chuckle and said, "If you say so, we're here outside the station."

"Got that!"

"Haha you're really stubborn."

"I got that from you."

"Geez haha, come on now we want to see you already."

"Same here, outside right? On my way now," Mafumafu answered, once again dragging his luggage along with him towards outside after he did, he looked around looking for familiar faces when suddenly someone hugged him from behind.

"Mafu!"

With that, he quickly turned around to see his mother and father, "Mom, dad!" he axclaimed happily hugging both his parents.

"My boy's already grown up, how's school? Did you make friends? How's your grade? A-" Mafumafu's father was suddenly cutted off by his mom.

"You're tired right dear? C'mon let's go home your big brother is also there!" His mom said cupping his son's hands with a warm smile.

×××

"Here's your Coffee Amatsuki."

"Thanks a bunch Soraru-san!" Amatsuki thanked, with a wide smile taking the cup of coffee that was placed on his table.

Amatsuki took a sip of his coffee and glanced at the raven haired who was staring at thin air, "You still can't?" he questioned, out of the blue.

"What do you mea-"

"That boy, it's been 4 years Soraru-san yet you're still looking like you lost your soul," Amatsuki replied, cutting off the older one, "I thought you already moved on?"

Soraru let out a quiet chuckle as he closed his eyes, "Of course I did," Soraru replied, giving Amatsuki a forced out smile.

Amatsuki saw right through his hard-headed friend and let out a sigh, "Yeah you did," he commented, sarcastically earning a soft hit at the head by Soraru, "By the way Soraru-san, you already opened the cafe right?" Amatsuki asked, and Soraru only replied with a nod and a hum.

It was still early and it was the weekdays no wonder no one has come yet, everybody was too busy going straight towards their destined places. Amatsuki was about to stand up when the bells ring stating someone has enetered the cafe. The two quickly turned their heads to see who it was and their eyes widened.

"This... this is open right?"

The two didn't replied for a while as they were still shook until Amatsuki snapped back to reality, "Y-Yeah!"

"That's good!" the person replied, following by a soft chuckle as he clasped his hands together, "Can I please get a Rose Bud Tea?"

Amatsuki quickly tapped Soraru's shoulders snapping him back to reality, Soraru stood up and smiled at the costumer his face filled with so much joy, "Ha, are you an idiot?"
