“what should i do?” you sighed.
you hold the box with your office belonging inside tighter.
why’d they suddenly choose to lay off their workers?
i know they’re just a small company, but that doesn’t mean that they shouldn’t be considerate of their workers. they forced us to resign without even giving us a heads up first.
you all better make sure my back pay is well computed and correct in amount.
you sighed again.
past few weeks have already been so hellish and now this?
another deep exhale came out of your mouth.
“well, for now, let’s get yourself a meal, (y/n).” you told yourself to get off some steam because of your ex-company.
with your back slumped, you walked around the shopping district to find yourself some delicious food. your eyes wanders around to the variety of showcases put in front of every shop.
nothing really piques your hunger.
while walking, your orbs captured a shop across the street.
“cake shop?” you whisper.
sweets are not really my forte, but right now, i’m salivating for some.
hmm…
okay, (y/n). let’s get us some cake.
you waited for the traffic light to change before walking to the other side of the street. you went straight to the shop and looked at their “today’s menu” board.
chocolate mousse…
sounds delicious.
you fixed yourself and were about to open the door when someone suddenly talked beside you.
“hey…”
you quickly turned around and found a chest, or even lower. you looked up and saw a purple head gazing at you.
titan!
“y-yes? are you talking to me?” you asked.
he nodded his head.
“can i come with you?”
“huh?”
a few seconds of silence.
you both stared at each other without muttering a single word.
when you realized he’s not going to elaborate further what he means by that, you took it upon yourself to ask him.
“um, sorry. what do you mean by that? you want to come with me?” you pointed at the shop. “you mean here?”
he nodded again.
“okay…? i guess… i don’t see any problem with that.”
can’t you just go in by yourself?
you pushed the door open and he quietly followed you behind.
does he just want someone to open the door for him?
you released the door when he got inside. you walked to the counter and finished up your order. they gave you a number and you went to find a seat, but…
why is he still following me?
when you found an open table, you took a seat. unsurprisingly, he did too.
what the hell is wrong with this guy?
“um, do you still need something else?” you asked him.
he was taking something out from his duffle bag. it was a candy snack. he opened it and took some in his mouth.
“why are you asking if i need something else? are you a waitress?” he said with a straight face and continued munching his snack.
“what—”
“why do you have a box full of office things? did you get fired? don’t mind.” he cut off with a monotone voice.
what’s with this guy?
“you know, i don’t have the energy to argue with someone right now. please spare me from your snarky remarks.” you said and looked away.
“i wasn’t trying to be snarky, though. that was meant to be comforting.” he replied, his snacks that he just opened, already finished up.
“you thought that was comforting?” you raised your one brow and looked him dead in the eyes.
he nodded. you sighed and shook your head in disbelief.
really… what the hell is wrong with this guy?
you looked at him while he searched for something to eat in his bag that will satiate his hunger for now.
what else does he want?
hmm…
from the looks of it, he seems like an athlete— no, he’s definitely an athlete. his height gave it away.
basketball or volleyball? i wonder which sport he plays.
what if he actually plays baseball? haha. that would be a plot twist.
“why are you staring at me? hm… did you fall in love with me?” he muttered as he munched continuously.
“ah—! of course, i didn’t!” you refuted and immediately looked away.
damn, i didn’t even notice i was staring for that long.
well, that sure was embarrassing, but i can’t believe he can straight-faced call out someone and ask them if they’ve fallen for him.
i don’t know if he’s just one confident man or just straightforward. or a jerk.
“table number 23.” a man holding a tray said.
you both looked at his direction and saw him already putting down your food.
“enjoy your food.” he muttered before turning around.
your eyes formed hearts in it as soon as you saw the cake in front of you. you were so focused on it you almost forgot you’re sharing a table with an unknown person.
you peeked up at this said person and was surprised by the amount of food in front of him.
“what is this? are you going to eat all of that?!” you asked.
“i've actually held back on ordering because we have an official game later.” he said and started eating the fruit cake first.
“what?! you have a game later?! how laid-back can you be to be eating right now?!” you asked him. it's as if the freaking out that he should be feeling is now transferred to you.
“look.”
he shook his head and showed you his phone.
the screen showed messages and call notifications from who seemed like his coaches and teammates.
“they're looking for you already. god, some of them are already cursing you out.” you uttered as you read.
“i snuck out. but it's fine, because aka-chin is still in the plane because their flight was canceled for a few hours.” he explained.
“aka-chin?” you tilted your head.
“our captain. we're playing with some foreigners who wanted to have some revenge on us. we've already beaten them like five years ago and now they said they're getting their payback.” he added.
“heh… what sports are you playing?” you inquired.
“basketball. hey, aren't you going to eat? if you're not eating yours, then can i have it?” he said and went to try to snatch your plate, but you immediately evaded his long-ass limbs.
“no! i'm going to eat this! stop stealing my cake!” you defended your pastry and hid it away from him.
he pouted for a bit before focusing back on his own food.
you then didn't waste another time and started digging on your chocolate mousse cake.
“mhm! so delicious!” you rejoiced as you took the first bite.
so, he plays basketball. wait… i think i heard some news about that in the past. foreigners playing against japanese players…
“ah. vorpal swords, right? your team's name.” you questioned and he just nodded as his mouth was full.
wow, i can't believe i'm eating with someone who basically represent our country—
“wait, why were you waiting outside in the first place?” you said.
he looked at you.
“because i didn't want to eat alone.” he plainly said.
“yeah, everyone can guess that. but, why'd you have to eat with me?” you asked and took another bite.
“because everyone else came in with their partner and you were alone. i don't want to stand out by coming in alone.” he answered as he finished another plate.
no, your height alone can steal everyone's attention.
“oh, i thought you wanted to eat with me because when you saw me you fell in love.” you joked, trying to get back at him for his joke earlier.
“i didn't fall in love with you at first sight, but i think i'm starting to.” he said without missing a beat, not even stopping his hands from stuffing his mouth with more desserts.
“you—! don't go saying things like that! jeez, you'll create some misunderstanding!” you pointed at him, flushed with his sudden bluntness.
he looked at you confused.
i'm serious, though. he thought, but decided to brush it off and just continue eating.
you started fanning your hands over your face to create some air.
“gosh, it's suddenly so hot.” you segues.
suddenly, his phone rang with a notification.
“ah. aka-chin has already arrived.” he said sadly.
noticing this, you smiled comfortingly at him.
“are you going now?” you asked him.
he nodded.
he immediately readied his things and finished his food. he stood up and slings his bag on his shoulder. he looks at you and slightly bow his head.
you smiled at him.
“thank you for accompanying me.” he thanked.
“bye-bye. thank you to you too. somehow, i forgot my problem for a while while talking to you.” you told him as you hit the box with your foot which is the problem you're referring to.
you waved at him and he turned around. he took one step towards the door then he suddenly turned around.
“what? did you forget something?” you asked.
“next week. same day and time. i'll be visiting this place again. can you accompany me again that time?” he said, looking at you earnestly.
“what? is this your way of asking me out on a date?” you teased.
even though it's faint, you can definitely see how his ears slowly turned red.
you chuckled.
“sure. i’d love to accompany you.”
hope you enjoyed that! likes and reblogs would be much appreciated!
if you'd like to support me and my broke ass, you can tip me at my ko-fi acc! thank you very much!
