"Aw man, this sucks! My back is killin' me!" Nishiki voices as he moves a table.

"Well I could always help you," I comment looking over at him. I am so happy that I manage to get my voice back with the rest from the previous night.

"Abolutely not!" Nishiki exclaims.

"But-"

"But nothing. You're still healing from yesterday," Nishiki says looking over at me. My bottom lip pokes out looking at the ghoul.

I watch as the brunet male looks over at Enji and Mr. Yoshimura since they we're the only ones by the bar table. Enji was unpacking boxes with the new shipment while Mr. Yoshimura was the one that was cleaning the cups and putting them up.

"Whaddya say we take a quick fiver, you guys?" Nishiki adds.

I lightly giggle, already knowing what Irimi was going to say. "You're far too young to be asking for a break," she says while cleaning the windows.

"Yeah, quit bein' so lazy," Enji adds. "Y'know you could learn a thing or two from Hinami."

Just at that moment, Hinami walks inside the café carrying a plant. "Hey, Koma. Think this'll look good by the door?" She asks. I smile widely at her. Something about a child's smile always seems to making my heart rush with happiness.

"Yeah! Good thinkin'," Enji replies to the girl. She then goes over, asking if she could help Irimi with the windows.

I glance over at Nishiki, seeing his hand behind his back. Soon though, he walks over towards where Hinami was cleaning the glass from the outside. He slowly leans against the wall that divides the glass.

My mate clears his throat before speaking. "Listen, Hinami," he says, catching her attention. "I dunno about you, but I could use a break." I snort, trying to keep myself from laughing at Nishik's antics.

"Me too. But I'm so close to finishing this," Hinami replies.

"Yeah, but I just wanna take a little break, and if you were to side with me, they'd probably give in." Nishiki retorts. "Pretty please with sugar on top?" He asks. I full on starting laughing. He really was trying everything in the book.

Hinami's bird, Hetare, lands on Nishiki's head. "Hetare! Hetare! Hetare!" The bird chants over. Nishiki quickly moves, pressing his back against the wall, looking up above where his head formerly was, seeing the bird flying.

"Where the hell did you come from, ya crap-at-tiel?" He asks jumping, trying to reach and grab from the bird. Again, Hetare starts with chanting his name over again. The ghoul manages to chase the bird around some before I snicker, realizing what Hetare did.

"Ah! You really did crap on me!" Nishiki exclaims looking at the back of his waiter shirt. "That's right, you better fly away! If I get my hands on..." Nishiki says as he continues to chase the bird.

"Be careful Nishi," I call out to the ghoul. I glance over at Enji who was hoisting up at box probably full of cups, since they were all broken since....

"The 'lil guy might crap on your head," Enji comments, pulling me from my straying mind.

"Uh-- Speaking of Touka, where is she?" Nishiki asks. Actually I was curious myself since Touka usually tells when she's probably going to be out of work for something, even if it's minor.

"She said she was going to school to study. Something about entrance exams?" Irimi's voice pulls my attention to beside me. I glance over at her smiling seeing her cleaning the cups.

"So she decided, huh?" Nishiki voices. I glare over at him. Well he didn't have to say it in that cocky attitude. I roll my eyes from him towards the dark haired female beside me.
