2029 April 15

Somewhere in Tokyo, a small cafe was open for students and people to drink and eat dessert. One young girl sang an old and classic song while her co-worker listen.

"Hm..na na na..oh love~"

"Hey!"

"Ah! What the- Jeez you almost made me drop the latte." A black hair scolds her friend for scarring her from the back.

"Man...I never knew you would like those old fashion songs."

"Well, it was catchy to my ears, plus the lyrics are understanding. Also. quit scaring me from behind levy!"

"Haha, ahh...that was a good scare." Her friends laughed.

"Well if this latte drop you know our manager will roar again. Like you know..."

"Like a tiger?" She whispered.

"Worser than that."

"Y/n L/n!" An old lady like voice was heard from the back of the counter.

"Speak of the devil." Her friend whispered.

"Yes ma'am?"

The 18-year-old rush to the back of the counter to see her hot-headed manager with her arms cross, the girl already knew what their conversation is all about.

"Did you slept on your last shift, last night?"

"N-no ma'am, of course not." The black hair defended herself, sweat began to form in her palm.

"Ok, then explain this." The middle-aged lady pulled out her cell phone with a picture of her sleeping on the counter with full packs of customers waiting to take their orders.

"O-oh...umm...I'm sorry ma'am." The girl bowed her head to apologise for what happened. It was better to admit the truth rather than making up fake excuses again.

"Haa...Y/n I know your probably drain from your schoolwork, but please take time to rest in a while so you could have full energy again to work at the cafe."

"Yes ma'am."

"Now run along now and do your job."

Y/n exit the room they were in and met her friend who is currently on breaks. Not many people we're in the cafe, which relief Y/n so it will be a less stressful day.

"I told you to cover for me, Liam."

"Hey...I was also beaten up from my project ok, I couldn't help but sleep underneath the table." The boy replied with a sarcastic tone.

Y/n sat down where they were having their time off for little, drinking coffee and eating the food they have prepared for this shift. They were a group of 4, alone working in this cafe.

"Hey, guys have you seen my necklace?"

"You mean the red ruby one where you randomly found at the carnival yesterday?"

"....yes...?" Y/n responded, not sure how'd she knows where she found it.

"Here."

"Thanks."

"Oh, speaking of carnival. I heard from our history teacher about a woman who keeps going there every 14 of April, it was always that specific date."

"Why?"

"It was said- you weren't paying attention to him?" Their friend Liam rise his eyebrows.

"I got sleepy ok." The girl responded.
