A littlehandsome blue-eyed ginger meeting his soulmate once again-- (?) He grew up in a not so wealthy family. Now that he was 21, he had to work in order to support both him and his family, Too young. Unexpectedly, someone, a brunette changed the p...
The ginger hair got surprised at the happening, the customer really did not mind it.
Childe: Ah, Im sorry sir! I did not mean to do so. Im really sorry!
Customer: It's no problem, thank you for trying to help though.
-Sigh- this was the 3rd time he'd say no problem. Im just glad he is the type of person who's always calm and doesn't misunderstood.
He ran off to the kitchen sitting at the break area, Thinking of banging his head in the wall. But he was at work, so he couldn't.
30 minutes passed and Childe noticed the customer was done. He wanted to approach him and ask him to be his friend, but he felt shyer than before after what happened. A few minutes later while he was serving another customer, He noticed the the brunette leaving. He went to his table after serving.
As he was cleaning the table, he noticed a wallet-looking box, well it was definitely a wallet. He took a second staring at it and grabbed it to find the brunette with no thoughts, but he was nowhere to be found outside.
Childe: Sir? - Sir? whoever owns this wallet please come at me! He shouted while waving the wallet. But there was no sign of anyone coming towards him, He had no choice but to keep it until he finds the customer.
* .......... *
7 hours has passed and it was finally the end of his work. But it doesn't mean no more tomorrow. He reaches out for his car keys and drives off his house. After preparing to sleep, he remembered the wallet in his bag, he grabbed it from there and stared at it. He was curious about his identity but he didn't wanna sneak into his wallet. Childe walked off the path he wanted and opened his wallet carefully. Therefore, he found a picture of a girl sitting in it. He saw a writing; "guizhong. ♡"
It gave a feeling he've always felt before, a heartache. "Well ofcourse, he is so handsome and kind. How could he not have a girlfriend?" He thought. But the ginger did not erase the intentions of checking his identity, and so he did. He found a business card..."Wansheng Funeral Parlor! ****-***-****+ We offer discounts to certain people! Only at ****** street ***** ***** city~" ..He works at a funeral parlor? That's interesting.
He continued digging onto his wallet and found an identity card. So his name was..Zhongli. it reminded him of his old friend he liked, but he brushed the thought away. He returned his things and closed the wallet, Placing it in his nightstand hoping he will see the customer, Zhongli tomorrow.
4:37 am
Buzz buzz!
The notification was so loud it woke Childe up, he checked his phone dying in the brightness, he lowered it and opened the notification. It was a message from Xiangling
<- Chef Xiangling ▪︎▪︎▪︎
Hey Childe! I just wanted to say, There will be no work 2 days! Dad just had returned and I want to bond with him, Thank you!! [4:37 am]
[4:39] It's 4 am Xiangling, should've pm'd me tomorrow, thanks anyway.
Sorry! See you all in Thursday -^v^- [4:39 am]
Childe closed his phone and went back to sleep. Today and tomorrow was the only days he'd get alot of rest. As he went back to his room, he immediately went back onto his bed. Minutes later, loud noises were heard outside. It was interrupting him trying to sleep.
He felt sleepy and tired, but he is desperate to stop the noise. It would interrupt his sleep. - He saw a man with a ponytail, carrying a wheeled luggage. It must've been the cause for the noise.
Childe: Hello?
The man heard Childe, and he looked back. Childe didnt see his face clearly, but he indeed seem familiar.
?: Are you talking to me, Sir?
Childe: Oh. Yes. Can you lessen the noise for your luggage? It's causing my sleep to be interrupted.
?: Oh, my apologies.
Childe: Thank you.
The noise was deducted, The ginger finally felt happy. He went back to return to his house, but it was locked.
"Oh? Why is it locked? Did I lock it?"
He searched for his keys even though he remembered not bringing it, of course the result was nothing showed up.
Childe: Oh shit!
Childe shouted. He was locked out of his own home, the owner was asleep. He could not tell them and ask for an extra key.
?: I heard that sir, is everything okay?
Childe: Im locked out of my home!
?: . . .
?: How is that possible? Did you lock your house on purpose?
Childe: No. And I have no keys! I cant ask the owner for an extra one, he is asleep.
?: Is there anything I can do to help?
Childe: I dont think so, but I cant afford to sleep outside the streets. Id go to a nearby hotel, but I am carrying absolutely nothing!
?: This is a weird offer, but I just recently moved in here. Maybe you can stay in my home until the next day.
Childe: What?
Childe: Really? Are you not trying to kidnap me?
?: I am not that type of person, but I'd be glad to help.
Childe: I think I can trust you, but you're a pure stranger!
8:18 am
Childe woke up but chose to stay in bed. He found a fluffy pillow and started to hug it like crazy. Zhongli saw and giggled quietly.
8:36 am
-Yaaawn-
Zhongli: Oh. Your awake.
I heard a familiar voice and saw someone placing breakfast in a table beside me.
Childe: Ah! You scared me, why am I in bed?
Zhongli: I felt sorry for you having to sleep in the floor, so as soon as I woke up, I transferred you into the bed. But, arent you the waiter from yesterday? Such a big coincidence we bumped into eachother like this.
Childe stared at him, all the thanks he deserve couldn't be unleashed by the ginger, he wanted to do so. More than alot.
I blinked alot of times and looked at him. He saw the handsome customer with his pair of beautiful amber eyes staring at him. He brushed his thoughts slowly and took a deep breath...
Childe: Oh...Yes - Zhongli. I am the waiter from yesterday. Why did you take me here? You should've woke me up instead.
Zhongli: Looking at you, You seemed tired and sleepless. It was easy to guess with your eyes.
. . I looked at the food seeing my favourite one. Did he know? Mmh, maybe it was just a coincidence. I replied nothing to what he said.
Childe: ..Can I eat?
Zhongli: Sure, I will be at the living room if you need anything.
