You shouldn't have said that, that you were going out you mean, because now, every step feels like it means something, same street, same area, same stupid coincidente, you're looking at your phone when it happens, of course you are.

You stop because someone steps infront of you not suddenly or agressive but it's like it was on purpose.

"You're not very good at ignoring people." Your head snaps up, the voice familiar in a way it should't be.

"What?" you blink.

He's standing right in front of you, close enough that you should recognize him but you don't not fully.

"...Do i know you?" you ask, narrowing your eyes.

There's the faintest shift in his expression, not quite a smile or anything you can name.

"You're getting there." Your stomach drops, that tone that way of answering.

"...Wait" you frown, stepping closer

"No...hold on"

He tilts his head slightly, watching you think, watching you try.

"Figure it out." he says quietly.

Your breath catches, because there's only one person who talks like that.

"...You!"

But before it fully clicks he steps past you, like it was nothing, like you weren't just about to say something huge.

"Next time" he adds voice low as he passes, "Pay more attention Sweetheart"

And then, he's gone.

Mydei wasn't impulsive at least that's what people like to believe.

Phainon said it all the time how he thought too much, how he hesitated, how he let things sit longer than they should. Even Anaxa had once called him "predictable" in that blunt way only anaxagoras could mutter when he was tired and running on caffeine.

Maybe that had been true once, but lately? not so much.

Because if that were still the case, he wouldn't be here.

The hood of his jacket sat low over his head, a cap pulled down just enough to shadow his face. Nothing that would draw attention but just enough to blend in and enough to not immediately be recognized.

He adjusted the mask slightly, exhaling through it as he stepped onto the sidewalk, same street and area the same place he told himself he wasn't going back to.

"...This is stupid" he muttured under his breath, hands tucked into his pockets.

He didn't even know what he was looking for.

A face he hadn't fully seen, a voice he hadn't heard.

A person he could only recognize through glances, timing and presence.

And yet he kept coming back, because something about that girl didn't sit right in his mind, not in a bad way of course in the way he just refused to leave.

His steps slowed as the bakery came into view, warm light spilling out onto the pavement like it always did.

He stood there, watching like maybe if he stared long enough, the girl would just appear.

"...Right" he exhaled quietly, pushing the door open.

The bell chimed, the smell hit him first, sweet, warm, familiar in a way that made his shoulders loosen slightly despite himself, his gaze looked around, scanning but not obvious, you weren't there...again.

Something in his chest tightened, not painful, just off.

"Figures" he murmured, stepping further inside anyway.

"Wow." the voice came out of no where, mydei stilled.

"You're bad at this" the voice continued.

He turned slightly, crossing his arms, a girl leaned against one of the tables, arms crossed, watching him with a grin that said she had already figured him out five steps ago.

Bright blueish eyes, observant and entertained.

"I don't know what you're talking about" Mydei said flatly, already turning away.

"Mm, yeah,sure" she hummed. "Guy in a hoodie, hiding his face, walking into the same place three times this week looking like he's searching for something...totally normal behavior." He pause "three?" he repeated before he could stop himself.

Her grin widened. "Ah so you are counting" "You talk to much."

"And you don't talk enough" she shot back immediately. "Which is funny because you're literally a rockstar."

That made him look at her again, properly this time.

"You recognize me" he said, not a question.

She shrugged. "I have eyes" "Then keep your voice down." "Relax emo boy" she said waving a hand. "if i was gonna make a scene, i would've done it already."

Mydei studied her for a moment "You're not here for me" she added.

He didn't respond, didn't need to, her expression shifted slightly into something sharper.

"You're looking for someone"

The silence gave him away her grin came back "You silence says enough" she teases

"Drop it."

"Nope!" she said immediately. "Absolutely not. This is way too interesting" Mydei exhaled slowly, clearly losing patience.

"I'm not doing this." He turned to leave.

"[Name], right?" He stopped just like that.

His grip tightened slightly in his hoodie.

"What?" he said quieter now.

She watched him carefully, there it was, confirmation.

"Yeah" she said pushing off the table "Knew it." "You know her." he said.

"Maybe"

"..Give me a straight answer." She took a step closer, clearly enjoing this far more than she should.

"What and ruin the mystery?" she teased "Where's the fun in that?" Mydei's jaw tightened "I'm not playing games." "Good" she shot back "me neither" A beat, then she signed dramatically.

"Okay, fine, yes i know her" Silence fell between them again.

"Why?....Why do you care?" He didn't reply immediately, didn't have one that sounded normal or reasonable or sane.

"...I just do" he said vague but honest.

And for some reason that seemed to be enough, her expression turned curious less teasing. "Huh" she murmured.

then slowly a smirk.

"Oh, she's gonna lose her mind!" "...What?" "Nothing" she said quickly "forget it" She reached into her pocket, pulling out her phone.

Mydei frowned slightly "What are you-" "Relax" she said "i'm not taking a picture." A few taps then she looked at him

"You better not be weird" she warned.

"I'm not" "You say that, but-" "Im not"

"Fine."

She stepped closer, holding out her phone.

A contact screen, a number, a name, her name,

"You're just giving me this?" he asked brows pulling slightly together

"Don't make it a big deal" she shrugged "consider it...entertainment." "Thats a terrible reason" "I know" She grinned "I'm hilarious" He hesitated before taking his own phone and saved the number, this moment felt longer that it shoud've.

"Cipher by the way" she said suddendly.

He glanced up.

"My name," she clarified. "Since you're literally texting my friend now." "Mydei" "I know" she rolled her eyes "You better text her, otherwise i'm blocking you myself" "You gave me the number" "And i can take it back spiritually" "That makes no sense" "exactly" "You're annoying" "I get that alot"

Mydei glanced down at his phone, by the time he looked back up the gray haired girl was gone, he looked back down at the black message box waiting underneath it, before he started typing.

That was how you ended up standing infront of a bakery you'd passed a hundred times before but never really paid attention to.

The window display looked warm, soft colors, neatly arranged pastries, something about this whole place felt so easy and calming.

The bell chimed as you stepped inside and immediately, the air shifted, the shop was cold and the smell of sugar and fresh bread reached you, it wrapped around you in a very relaxing way.

You exhaled, stepping into line, letting your eyes wander over the menu without focusing.

"Something sweet" you murmur to yourself. "That's all we need, nothing dramatic" You stayed in line waiting for your turn, looking at the menu and displayed options, everything looked so good, shame you we're broke and couldn't get the whole bakery in a big box.

"Next!" you blinked, realizing you were already at the counter.

"Oh! uhh" you glanced quickly at the display, picking the first thing that looked appealing "Can i get that one? and a coffee"

"Name?" You gave it quietly, tapping your card against the reader before stepping aside.

It didn't take long for silence to settle back in, it wasn't uncomfortable, jut there.

You shifted your weight slightly, leaning against the counter as you waited, pulling your phone out without unlocking it.

Thats when you noticed someone next to you, not close enough to be strange but close enough to be aware of.

You adjusted slightly, your elbow nearly brushing against his sleeve and frowned faintly.

Was he always standing that close?

"Are you in line?"

The voice came from right beside you.

You turned, caught a little off guard. "What?" He nodded towards the counter, hands still tucked in the pockets of his pants.

"You were standing here."

"Oh!" you stepped back a bit, shaking your head "No, i already ordered, you can go." a small pause.

"...right"

He moved forwards, taking your place, his shoulder brushing yours for just a second as he passed.

You looked away quickly, focusing very hard on your phone screen even though it hadn't changed.

"Can i get pomegranate milk" He paused, deciding what to have "And that strawbery pastry." This stranger is oddly specific with his drinking of choice.

"Name?" "Mydei."

Your brain stopped working for a minute, it has to be another mydei, it cannot be THE mydei standing just a few inches from you right? Your eyes looked back at the man but really looked this time, you couldn't see much, he wore a black mask and black glasses, but the blonde with redish ends and the way he stood like he didn't really belong to the space but wasn't trying to leave either gave it a little away.

Your chest tightened a little.

Don't be delusional, why would he be here? In a random bakery? Ordering drinks?

Minutes passed and you couldn't take your eyes off of him, trying to see whats behind that mask with just your eyes alone, there were thousands of people who looked like that, literally thousands.....

"You're staring..."

"What- no,i'm not!" you said quickly, looking away just to look back at him once more.

He looked at you, one eyebrow raised slightly.

"You are." "I wasn't" you insisted, even though yeah, you were staring but who wouldn't look at a pretty guy? "I just thought you looked like someone."

"Someone?" "Yeah" "....Famous? "....Maybe" "Do i?"

"Not really.."

".....right"

Wow you're so stupid you could turn into a mash potato right now, he clearly looks like the man you thirst over...

Silence settled between the two of you before your order was called, you stepped forward immediately, grateful for the interruption, taking the small box and drink.

"Thanks"

You turned towards the door, already halfway out before something made you pause, you glance back, he was still there, waiting but this time he was already looking at you, not very obvious but not accidental either.

Your fingers tightned slightly around your cup before you looked away again, pushing the door open and stepping back outside.

The warm air hit your face, the bell chimed behind you and just like that it was over.

You stood there for a moment staring down at your drink.

"You're actually insane, delusional, crazy" you muttured under your breath.

Because it wasn't him, it couldn't have been, that would be ridiculous...right?

But if it was...oh boy you just looked like a fool.

...

"Pomegranate milk and Strawberry cake for Mydei"

He stepped forwards, taking the cup, Phainon catched up to him after flirting with half the women in the store. "Soooo you knew the girl?"

Mydei didn't look up. "Nope" "Sure, you were staring buddy"

"She looked familiar that's all, surely you can't be talking after swooning half of the female population in this bakery alone?" Phainon gasped before rolling his eyes.

Mydei didn't explain further, didn't try to, because the truth was, he didn't know why the girl looked familiar, and for some reason, that bothered him more than it should have.
