"Whatcha doing there, Yuuki?" Flora asks Yuuki, who has been typing on his phone for a while.

"Writing a story."

"About what?" Flora gets behind him and takes a look at the phone.

"It's just a short story, haven't finished it yet," he replies, "You're one curious girl, aren't you?"

Yuuki can only smile and sigh as Flora chuckles at what he said. He proceeds to continue writing the story while eating crispy tofu.

"Hey, do you wanna read it when it's done?"

"Sure."

"Thanks, I hope you'll enjoy it."

Flora smiles as a response.

After some time, Yuuki finally finishes his story, he hands his phone to Flora to read it. The story is about someone who enjoys nighttime, taking pictures, and does dangerous activities.

"In the evening, Kun packs the supply he bought in the afternoon. Once he's done with packaging, he wears an all-black outfit and a black mask. Now he's off to climb onto the roof of a tall office building.

He walks for a bit before finding a taxi, which makes his trip faster. After arriving at a market, he walks around the building, scouting for a place to start climbing with the least risk of being seen. He also uses a digital map to make the job easier.

After making sure that no one is around, Kun makes his move. He swiftly heads to the ladder that leads to the roof. He keeps climbing until he eventually reaches the roof. Everything is going smoothly so far.

As he reaches the roof, Kun is rewarded with an amazing view of the city at night. He puts down his backpack and takes out the food he bought. He dines by himself as the night city quietly goes on. It is calming and relieving, it feels like an escape from the harsh world.

Kun finishes eating and stands up to take more look at the city. He becomes speechless, he never gets tired of the night scenery.

"But like everything else, we must part ways. I'm looking forward to see more of you," Kun says as he takes pictures of the city.

And with that, Kun sneakily gets out of the area and heads home, nobody notices any of his movement."

"Wow, what a nice story. I really like it."

"Arigatou gozaimasu."

"Do itamashite." Flora gives off a smile again, Yuuki returns it with a smile as well.

"You're so talented, you know."

Yuuki is flustered by the additional compliment.

"Do you mind if I hang out with you some more?"

"I don't mind. In fact, I may need some sort of guide and someone to accompany me."

"Leave it to me!" Flora says enthusiastically.

"Aww, makasih."

"Hehe. What did he just say?"

Yuuki blushes when he sees Flora's smile, a smile is always formed on his face every time he sees her smile. It's like that he's programmed to smile back to her.

"Your smile is contagious!"

"One more reason why I should smile at you."

Flora's reply strikes Yuuki in the heart. He feels more flustered as he finishes his crispy tofu.
