"who is he?"
you all watched silently as kazuha and cyno both exchanged a look that was equally as conflicted.
you didn't notice how tense it became until everyone had stopped speaking.
tomo decided to break off the awkward silence first. but to be honest, you wished that he remained quiet.
"that's cyno, he just asked y/n out."
you had to hold yourself back from facepalming.
way to make it more awkward, tomo.
you glanced at kazuha for any kind of response, but oddly enough, he didn't respond.
he just blinked plainly with a face that depicted no emotion whatsoever.
"i see," was his only reply.
however, the look he gave cyno was rather inflicting. the two continued to glare at each other and you felt the tension slowly swallowing you up.
"who are you?" cyno asked in return.
"kazuha." the platinum headed male replied briefly, choosing not to elaborate any further.
sara took note of the situation and decided to try changing the topic in the attempt of lightening the unpleasant mood. "kazuha, are our orders done yet?"
"they will be finished shortly."
no one spoke after that.
in his thoughts, cyno tried figuring out what kazuha's relationship with you was, but couldn't come to any conclusion. he only stared at the man, not pleased by him at all.
"ah cyno. i see that you're still standing," kazuha spoke with his usual calm tone, "i'd be more than delighted to help you find a table."
"uh—" before cyno could say anything more, kazuha flashed him a gentle smile while gesturing towards an empty table. which was noticeably far from yours.
"fortunately, that table over there isn't occupied. you're more than welcome to go take a seat there," he suggested cheerfully. though, his mouth said one thing, while his eyes said another.
you didn't need a genius to tell that he was troubled. even for kazuha, this feeling was foreign. he didn't know what it was but the mere sight of cyno irked him. and the fact that he asked you out irked him even more.
the same could be said about how cyno felt towards kazuha. the two simply disliked each other, even if they had just met.
a part of you wanted to say something, but nothing came to mind. and kazuha's sudden change in behavior was a tad bit concerning to you. kazuha himself didn't know what was going on with him.
