Warmth

[ your name ] woke up by the birds singing outside. She could hear the wind flowing around and the leaves falling down to the ground.

She stood up and folded her futon gently and slowly so she won't wake up her younger sister. Yuko could sleep for hours but isn't a heavy sleeper.

[ your name ] washed her face in the bathroom sink and changed into her regular green kimono and put her hair up.

Today she was going to work at the restaurant since they called her before she went home and told her that they needed another waitress since one of them got fired.

' well I guess I have more time to sew and do more clothings ' [ your name ] thought.

She made her self quickly two onigaris and exited her house, locking it up. She left and walked all the way to the village while eating her breakfast. Of course she left some for yuko since she doesn't really know how to cook. [ your name ] had her kind and warm smile as always.

" hello sir, what do you need me for ? " [ your name ] asked when she arrived at her work. Her boss turned around and smiled.

" hello [ your name ] ! I just need you to take in and give out orders " he simply said and she bowed down to him nodding her head. Once she raised her head he was already gone.

She took her apron and a small cloth so she can start cleaning the tables before costumers start coming in. And she was indeed correct, minutes after they opened people started coming.

Since they had a special that day the restaurant was going to be full.

' I'm going to have a full day... '

[ your name ] was about to close since it was already past 8 and that's when they usually close. That day [ your name ] boss told her to stay the whole day since it was full and their wasn't enough workers, which she gladly agreed since he was going to double up her payment.

But she couldn't close just yet since there was a few people, like 3 tables full. [ your name ] sighed in exhaustion and continued to clean all the tables that were dirty.

She heard the restaurant door open and saw a young men walk in. He had white hair with a lot of scars. He walked in and sat himself in a booth by himself.

[ your name ] walked towards him to ask what he would like to order.

" good evenings sir, what would you like to order ? " she asked sweetly.

The strange guy just glared at her. Even though his death glare would scare anyone especially women, [ your name ] still looked at him with kind eyes and such a sweet smile.

" ohagi " he simply said and looked away. [ your name ] just nodded knowing that was the only thing he wanted to order. She wanted to giggle so hard since she saw how embarrassed he was.

She would also tell a tint of pink blush on his check.

How cute.

[ your name ] didn't know much ohagis he wanted so she was just going to make stack of them.

For some reason [ your name ] couldn't get his face out of her mind. She kept thinking about how he was embarrassed and she found it cute.

People were slowly leaving making the weird guy that came in alone. ' fuck this shit ' the guy said and was about to stand up until the sweet waitress had put a plate full of ohagis.

" here you go sir, I hope you enjoy it ! " [ your name ] said. He looked at her and looked back at the plate. He didn't give her a glare anymore but he still looked grumpy and angry.

But that soon washed off his face once he started munching on the tasty snack and closed his eyes. " would that be all, sir ? "
[ your name ] asked. 

Before the young man could answer a group of 4 man came in. They were at least in their 20's.

The 4 men smirked and each other and walked  towards [ your name ]. One of them put one of his arm around [ your name ]'s waist and his other hand was playing with her hair.

This caused [ your name ] to turn around and face the guy. The guy sitting down eating ohagis was just glaring at the guy and watching them carefully. ' I can't even fucking eat ohagis in peace ' he thought.

" hello beautiful ~ how's a pretty young lady like you working here ? How about you come to my place ? " he said teasingly.

" I'm sorry sir, but can you move your hands off me ? I really need to get back and work... "

The white haired guy could sense the nervousness in the girls voice. He could sense her fear. He growled and stood up, right behind the girl.

" get your hands off her " he said with seriousness. He was glaring at the men and they just smirked as they cracked their knuckles.

" fuck off kid, this isn't your business " he growled back. " how about you go back to eating those sweats grandma ! " one of the men said and the rest started laughing.

" g-gentle men...p-please don't fight, how about we all cal- "

Before [ your name ] could finish her sentence the white haired guy punched the one that was touching [ your name ]. She gasped and the white haired guy pushed her back harsh into the table, pushing her out of the way.

" what the fuck ?! You asked for this kid.. " the guy who got pouched said. The rest cracked their knuckles and surrounded the white haired guy.

He just did the same and smirked while laughing creepily. " come at me "

The group left running out of the restaurant, but one stayed behind holding his bruised stomach and holding his bloody nose. He was the one who approached [ your name ].

" this isn't over kid " with that he left.

[ your name ] was shocked and holding her mouth from preventing screaming out loud. Even though it wasn't something big, she was still traumatized of blood.

Because of what happened that night.

Even though the white haired guy fought against 4 men, he won. He didn't have no bruises he only had blood coming out his mouth.

" h-here let me help you ! " she grabbed his arm and pulled him to the kitchen. He couldn't even react because of her strong grip and her speed.

" tsk, I don't need your help " he said as he got forced to sit down in a bench. " please, let me help you. You helped me so it's only fair if I help you "

" you're stubborn " he said.

[ your name ] wiped his mouth with a wet cloth carefully to not hurt him. He hissed when she pressed a bit of pressure so she went slower.

" there you go, and you don't have to pay. It's another thank you for protecting me. Thank you " she bowed down and smiled at him.

" yeah, whatever. Thanks for helping me " he stood up and left something in the table.

[ your name ] walked over to the table and saw money. Before she could say something she got interrupted by the white haired guy.

" keep it "  he said and left without saying anything else. [ your name ] just looked at him leave until she couldn't see him anymore.

" dummy you should've asked for his name.. "
[ your name ] said while looking at the money he had left behind for her. She was smiling at the thought of the white haired guy.

Little did she know he was staring at her from the window.
