Months passed, and your feelings for Aki deepened. You cherished the time you spent together, but you were also acutely aware that he lived a dangerous life. The thought of losing him was a constant shadow in your heart.
One day, Aki arrived at the café looking more troubled than usual. You asked him what was wrong, and after a long pause, he spoke of a particularly perilous mission. The fear in your heart grew, but so did your admiration for his bravery.
"I wish I could do more to help," you confessed, feeling a mix of frustration and affection.
Aki looked at you then, his usual guarded expression giving way to something softer, more tender. "You do more than you realize," he said, his voice barely above a whisper. "You make me feel... normal. Alive. And that's more than I've had in a long time."
That night, under the same stars you'd once admired together, Aki kissed you. It was a kiss born of shared moments, of unspoken fears, and of a deep connection that had grown between you.
