I was a normal shop attendant of a bakery, though i don't think this job would ever fit me. I was always so shy when the people in this job were supposed to be cheerful. I always thought of quitting but, there was just this one person who would always visit the shop, and in the hopes to see him, i never actually quit. Like everyday, he came inside the store today too, dressed flamboyantly in his business suit and a dotted tie. With perfectly polished black leather shoes and a briefcase. He took his usual seat, by the window and took off his glasses, unraveling his shining eyes. He looked at me and greeted me with his usual, calm and composed smile. I blushed and looked aside.
I took the tray and walked over to his seat, "G-Good e-evening... Nanami..." I stuttered again. This happened almost everyday. "Good evening y/n, how are things going with you recently?" He asked. He was a regular customer, a very mysterious man, he and I had become good friends over the past days. "Its all well and good.." I said without making eye contact. "That's good to hear." He said as I peeked at his face, he was smiling at me warmly. "W-what would you like to-today?" I asked. 'Damn it! why do I stutter so much around him.. he is too handsome, I can't take it!' I thought to myself. "Um... maybe some tea and some cake. Oh and please pack the cake, I will take it home." He said to me. I was a little disappointed that he would not stay here longer, but it was fine. "Right away." I said and left off to prepare tea for him. I packed a vanilla cake for him and gave him a choco-lava cake to him.
"Ah, this is always delicious!" He said munching onto the cake. He finished it up quickly and left, "I will come back tomorrow, after all, this is my favored bakery." He said and left. I bowed and bid him good night. I got back to the store and started picking up the dishes before leaving the store for the day. It was an extra shift for me on that day.
I was just picking up the dishes when I came across the pate Nanami used. There was a chit inside it, with his number on it. My face was all red when I saw his number on the chit. He left a note, "To my dear fired Y/N I always love your cakes and tea, so I decided to give you my number, do hot hesitate to call me, I will be there if you wish. Yours, Nanami." he wrote. I quickly jolted down his number on another piece of paper and quickly saved his number on my cell phone. I was happy to finally have his number, I wanted to take it since a long time but, I could never gather up the courage needed to ask a man for his number.
I happily stepped out of the store and locked the gate behind me. I looked at my wrist watch, 8:45pm, the sun had already set and I was already running late for my house. So I made a run for the metro station. The atmosphere was kind of strange to be honest. There were so few people on the road and I was almost all alone. I slowed down and clenched onto my bag, taking my steps carefully, walking down the street in pure silence.
"KABOOM!!"
I immediately turned around to the enormous noise. The view I witnessed was beyond comprehension... There was a demon in front of me, it was sitting over a man's shoulder but surprisingly, the man did not seem to notice that demon. "What's going on..." I was so scared. "Nyu~?" The demon turned it's head towards me and smiled. It noticed me and stepped down from the man's shoulder. "You~ can see~ heheheh~" It laughed and ran towards me, I instantly turned around and ran for my life. "Shit! what's happening?" I ran until a thought stroke me, I made my way into a small gap between two buildings and hid behind a bin. I quickly took out my phone, my arms shaking I dialed Nanami's number, "N-nanami... H-Help me... A hideous monster.. is...is..." Tears rolled down my eyes. "Where are you?" he asked in a serious tone. "N-Near the metro...Aaah!" I heard a rattle, a vibration and an enormous impact on my back. The monster came in and was about to hold my neck but suddenly, it's arm was cut off.
"Nananmi!" I shouted, he came for me. He slaughtered the monster and picked me up in his arms, taking me to a place he called the jujutsu high. "I am sorry you had to see that." He said. "N-no... thank you for saving me..." I thanked him as he bandaged my injuries. "I gave you my number so, be sure to call." he said and I nodded. he then slid my bangs aside and looked me in the eye, "I will protect you from those curses, so rest assured." He said moving in closer, "I like you." He said smiling. "I-I...AAh... ahh..." I was speechless to what I just heard. "I've liked you since a long time, so I really wanted you to be by me." He spoke in a gentle voice. "I love you too." I said without a single stutter, but instantly hid my head in my hands in embarrassment. "I am glad." He said moving my arms aside and closing the gap between us, "Thank you, Y/N. He said and kissed my lip. I was shocked by this so I accidently ended up pushing him off, but he was still smiling, so he hugged me with happiness again. "I'll always treasure you." he said.
