She worked behind the bar as usual and Satoru was surprised to see her when he walked in. He wanted to go to a new place, try something new. He hated the fact that he couldn't get drunk, thanks to his Reverse Cursed Technique. If he had to disable that then he had to also disable his Limitless. Talk about a pain in the ass.
"Long time" he sat at the bar as she welcomed him with a gentle smile on her face. She didn't look like she knew what happened between him and Suguru, and he let her be.
"What brings you here?" She asked.
"I've been meaning to try this place out for a while now. The bartender has some really good reviews", he said making her laugh. "I'll have your strongest drink please."
"Alright", her smile was now laced with concern, "I don't what to pry and I hope you're alright."
"Please don't worry" he was quick to sense it "I'm just upset that I can't get drunk."
"And why is that?" She asked as he groaned like a teenager explaining it to his mother.
"That sounds tedious", she said passing him his drink.
"I've had such a terrible day! You know, Jun chan... I wish someone would just switch all the systems off for me so I can have 5 fucking minutes of normalcy." He said making her eyes slightly go wide. He clearly didn't know what he was talking about and she nodded before her attention shifted to another customer.
Satoru sat there drinking one glass after another, hating it even more. "It burns my mouth but it doesn't work." He rolled his eyes "I doubt your reviews now".
"Wow, aren't you very nice?" She knew he was upset so she didn't mind him.
"Can I come over there and make a drink myself?" He watched some girls hover and swarm around him. "I really need to get out of this situation. I promise I'll grant you a wish. Anything you want. Pinky!"
After five seconds of staring at him in disbelief she gave in, "Sure, the manager isn't here. I'll let you do it for ten minutes as long as you're discreet."
"I'll try my best."
*10 minutes later*
"I need two margaritas and your phone number"
"AHHHH CAN I HAVE YOUR NUMBER??!"
"Your eyes are so pretty!"
"Can I buy you a drink?"
"Now this is what I call a good bartender review", he poked at her and she rolled her eyes. Not discreet whatsoever.
"Oh, Satoru san...", she saw someone familiar at the bar. A regular customer she didn't really like but had to deal with.
"What is it?
"Will you grant me that wish now?"
"Already?"
"Please?" She pleaded and his face turned a little more serious "tell me".
"Could you attend that customer?" She discreetly pointed "I'll take care of literally every other person at the bar, please?"
"That weird dude?"
"He's kind of a perv-"
"You don't have to waste your wish on that. I'll deal with him for you," he didn't seem so jolly anymore.
"Thank you!" She gratefully said "oh, thank you so m-"
"Why do you deal with people like that?" His question was just as serious as the expression on his face. His brows had furrowed in annoyance. He hated it for her.
"It's a part of my job. But since you're here I can only ask you. It's okay if you don't want to, I'll handle him like I usually do."
"No need. You stay here" he walked towards the said customer and she could only feel grateful for having missed that harassment session.
It wasn't even five minutes when the customer started creating a ruckus, "this drink tastes like piss! Where is my regular bar tender? JUN!" He points at Satoru "who is this man? What's with my drink?"
"I'm so sorry I'll get you another one!", she said as Satoru's anger rose to his head, "that drink is perfectly fine! Don't think I don't know why you're saying this."
"Huh?? Is this how you talk to a customer???!"
"I'm sorry! I'll get you another one." She pressed her hand against Satoru's chest to hold him back and got in between then. It was her fault that this was happening. It was her fault that she asked Satoru to do it.
She was so anxious that her shaky hand had fully cancelled his Limitless and his Reverse cursed technique by accident. His eyes went wide as the intoxication from chugging down one drink after another like an alcoholic finally hit him, but what hit him even harder was the realisation.
Before Satoru could even react, he was on the floor. She looked at him in horror when she heard him fall. She quickly sat him on his back against one of the shelves and checked if he was okay. His face flushed as he gave her a toothy grin, before it broke into a wide smile "this feels good". She realised what she'd done.
"Oh, no!" She held his face from falling on the floor again, "look at me..." she tried to get him to wake up. "Uhhh..." she tried to recall whatever he'd told her about his technique "...try to activate your... Reverse cursed technique?"
"Oh, you're..." his head spun so bad he spiralled.
"Satoru san!" She shook him awake.
"What?!!" He yelled.
"Your technique."
"Oh, my texhniq" he hiccuped as she facepalmed.
She decided to use her last resort, "Satoru san, I will call Principal Yaga if you don't-"
"No nonnooooo~ I'm on it I SWEAR!"
She could tell that he tried his best. He watched her with a big smile on his intoxicated face as it began reducing soon, the smile on his face going down with it. She handed him a glass of hot water with some fresh lemon once he was able to stand upright.
"Your wish was answered, I guess?" She sighed in relief.
"Why the fuck are you working here??" His sudden bluntness startled her.
"What?"
"You can't be here!"
"Because I have bills to pay and kids to-"
He held her hand. He was so sure of it when the intoxication coaxed his senses, he was bloody sure of one thing. His fingers traced hers before his pinky intertwined with hers.
"You really have forgotten about your promise, haven't you, Yuriko?" He was livid.
"How did you-"
"Well, I fucking haven't."
