Tsukiyama Oneshots

Book Cafe

Fluff. This was inspired of a manga I was reading.

Third Person POV

It has been an exausting week for Tsukishima Kei. Since the Miyagi department for the company he work for are short-handed, he was transfered out of the city. Yes, although the distance between Tokyo and Miyagi is only of driving distance, he wasn't able to get a break because of all the shit he has to deal with. Apparantly the moving company he was introduced to charges extra for every fragile valuables he owns, since he's transfer was also short noticed, he has to be transfered immediatly the same day he got notified. He also has to pack his belongings, say goodbye to his superiors, call moving comapanies, not to mention he has to work double the time in Miyagi for the first 5 days. Did I mentioned the moving truck was a day late?

' Hahh... Thank God I have a day off tomorrow. I don't know what'll happen to me if I keep pushing myself like this.'
He sighed to himself.
'Come to think of it, it's been awhile since I've been here. Wonder what the fam is up to'. Tsukishima went to college in the city and was living there ever since. He did visit he's family, yes, but he didn't have the luxury to catch up with friends more so to have time for himself. As he was consumed by his thoughts, he's eyes wondered to a certain shop.

'Hm? A book store? Since when did they build something like this here?'

The shop was loaded with people. Mostly by highschool girls but nonetheless, the place must me hella good. He saw people smiling to themselves as they exited the cafe.

He thought hard whether to check it out or just go home. Tsukishima wasn't much of a people-person so he chose the latter.

'Well whatever, I can just go tomorrow.'
He called a cab and was drove home.

Reaching for his keys, he heard loud bickering from he's neighbors. "Stupid Kageyama!! Didn't I told you not to buy the catnip?!" A talking tangerine yelled. "Well how am I suppose to know the cat will stop working after he smelled it?!" A guy with black hair yelled back. Rolling his eyes, he pushed the doorknob. They continued to argue even after Tsukishima entered his house. Although he lived in an apartment, it was big enough for 3 people to live in. Sighing for the nth time today, he wash up, eat, clean and got ready for bed.

4:30 pm

Tsukishima went out to buy food stocks since he's running out, when he noticed the bookshop again.
'Hm...should I?' He thought. He does like books and is passionate when reading them. And it seems that there was not a lot of people inside  compared to yesterday where you can see an ocean of people.

Though, hesitant, he managed to open the door only to be greeted by the lovely sweet aroma of lavender. It wasn't a bookshop, it was a cafe. A Cafe filled with the old scent of books, together with the freshly brewed tea.
"Um, excuse me?" he said with a low voice. Heard by the clerk, he turned around with a book in his hands, wearing a black apron and a braided half up do hairstyle.
