"Oh give me a break..." You and Nanami both looked at Nobara as she took a spoonful out of her plastic yoghurt bowl and put the scoop right into her mouth as she vigilantly watched the both of you. "Can you guys stop being so lovey-dovey, please... I'm trying to eat." Nanami sighed as the both of you moved away from one another in your seats as you all sat together during your break.

"Don't be jealous Nobara." You chuckled as you looked at Nanami with a smile on your face. "What? Im just asking. Keep the romance away from me." she playfully rolls her eyes as she put the small plastic bowl down onto the table in front of her.

You took a glance from where you were sitting to look out of the window, you stared at the trees embracing their new bloom and the sky's beautiful blue with no cloud in the sky. Spring was finally here. You spent New Years and Valentine's day with friends and even the evening of Valentine's day with Nanami. You haven't seen Olivia in a while since she had been back from Japan but, honestly, you didn't mind - being away from her felt like taking a breath of fresh air.

"You're definitely jealous." Kasumi pitches in as she sits in the corner of the break room with Kokichi beside her, who found it funny when Nobara gave them a playful dirty look in response to Kasumi's opinion.

"There's nothing for me to be jealous about, I don't need a partner in my life." She folded her arms as she said this before turning her head to look at you and Nanami giggle amongst each other. "Still, you guys are making me sick. Keep the PDA out of work." She gets up to put her finished yoghurt bowl in the bin. "Since when did you start taking on the bossy role, Nobara?" Nanami smiled softly as he looked at you then at Nobara who was coming back to her seat.

"Speaking of bosses, I havent seen Utahime in ages." Kokichi said. "Yeah, where has she been?" Nobara added on.

"I have no idea actually." Nanami answered, thinking about the last time he saw her. You spoke after Nanami."I remember her telling me that she was going abroad to negotiate things with a bunch of big companies... Something like that. I can't really remember the exact details." Your coworkers nodded their head at you before continuing on with their group discussion, as your friends spoke amongst themselves you looked to your phone after it vibrated.

Taking it from its place on the table, your phone lit up to show that you received a message from Olivia.

Hey, wanna meet up for coffee today?

You looked at the message for a while, debating on whether you should actually respond or not. It had been a while since you last saw Olivia, the last time you actually did meet up with her was before Christmas. You didn't blame her for not meeting up since before the holidays as the both of you had been busy with work, who wasn't busy with work these days?

Meeting up with her wouldn't hurt anyone, you told yourself. 

Sure, I've only just started my
break, so we can meet up now.
Where do you want to meet up?

You looked at Nanami who looked at your phone before asking. "You going out?" You nodded your head at him. "Yeah, but I'll be back before break ends."

"Okay." You got up and told your coworkers about your plan before leaving and they all waved you off. The moment you got to your car, Olivia had responded with the cafe's address and so you were on your way.
