#namine 02

"H-hey! Watch out!"

She'd just walked into Cafe December to order her usual hot chocolate, but it seemed Susie was destined to come to somebody's rescue again; noticing a girl at the top of a very high ladder against a bookshelf.. suddenly come tumbling backwards. She scampered into the place, pushing past the other patrons just in time to thrust her arms out; catching the girl before she hit the floor. Looks like she was pulling out a really heavy book and lost her balance..

"Are you okay?! Damn, lucky I was here to catch you! You could've really gotten hurt, you--"

"What do you think, Namine-chan? Does it fit alright?"

Watanuki was incredibly happy to have seen the girl that night, as the sun was setting just beyond the horizon; slight traces of a darkened sky slipping in between clouds of pink and orange. They stood together on the boardwalk of the Golden ward, as string lights and stands lit their path; awaiting the show that would soon take up their evening sky.

For now, however, they had some time to catch up; and it warmed the shopkeeper's heart to see Namine wearing the yukata he made especially for her.
