Azka continues his college days as usual, study, visit the cafe, talk with Alga, go home, rinse and repeat. Without realizing it, so much time has passed, its now early November, the leaves are a bright orange and red, and the air feels colder than usual. But this doesn't stop Azka from visiting her, Neither does it stop Alga from seeing him. With every given moment strengthening their bond to a stronger connection than ever before. But fortunately, Azka isn't the only one who senses this.
On one fateful sunday morning in the cafe, Azka and Alga were sitting near the counter, sipping over a cup of tea and chewing on some cookies
"I've been thinking..." Alga placed her cup of tea on the table, her head in her other hand while her eyes were glued to the ceiling. She then looked at the man sitting beside her.
"Do you wanna like... go out somewhere, tonight?"
"Oh yeah! sur-...Wait, wait, what-"
Alga clenched her jaw, her face showed signs of regret. "You d-don't have to say yes! I just, just... wanted to spend some time closer with you." She sighed awkwardly before looking away from him, cheeks slightly pink out of embarrassment.
"You're kidding," He snorted. "Yeah! Why wouldn't I wanna go out with you! ...I mean, d-don't take it the wrong way. Spending time with you is my favourite thing, ya' know?" He smiled at her, giggling slightly at how shy she got. Usually it'd be him.
"...Really?" She immediately looked back at him with a surprised expression. "Then, uhm, how about a-"
"Movie night?"
"Movie night!"
They both unexpectedly said the same thing, which caused 5 seconds of silence before they both laughed together. Their laughs echo throughout the empty cafe, as its an early autumn morning, the red and orange leaves blowing about behind the glass of the Cafe's front door and windows, a soft light is casted onto them, and the atmosphere is warm. As the two continue to discuss their movie night.
"Okay, okay.. Then, movie night it is. Just us?" He looked at her with a grin before nodding his head.
"Yup, just you and me." The both of them smiled at eachother before Azka packs up and leaves the cafe. Satisfied with his plans she made for tonight. He walked home with butterflies in his stomach, and a heart that beats faster than a horse can run.
