05: Subtle Signals

— [ Kazutora's POV 🐯 ]

Sometimes, I would order Y/n's favorite coffee at a nearby coffee shop then deliver it to her office.

It felt good to be able to do something for her that I knew she would enjoy.

Today, I'm going to buy her coffee again. It's 11:30 am, I have to be there at her office by 12 so I'm right on time for her lunch break.

Y/n is a busy woman so drinking caffeine would be good for her to stay energetic and awake during her shift.

"Chifuyu, I'm just going to buy something outside okay? I'll be quick." I quickly left the store and started my car's engine.

I drove to the coffee shop and the lady was taking my order.

"I'll have 3 coffee please," I said while scanning their menu and noticing something that looked delicious.

It was biscuits. I'm sure she'd be hungry for a snack. I bought 2 packs of those biscuits as well and as soon as I got my orders, I drove to her workplace.

I arrived at a tall building and parked my car. I got her a biscuit and coffee and walked inside the company.

I went to her office and I saw her there with a few of her colleagues, they were already enjoying their meals.

I was starting to get embarrassed and felt a bit shy to give it to her but as if on cue, an errand boy passed by me.

I quickly walked towards him and politely asked him to give the goods to Y/n, "Hey uh- can you give this to the woman over there? The one wearing a blouse, please? Thank you so much in advance" "Oh sure sir!"

He kindly followed. I was just observing secretly, after all, I was a bit bold this time since I added a small note on her coffee.

The boy handed the coffee and biscuits to her. She seemed confused at first but the errand boy seemed to tell her something and she nodded, thanking him.

She looked at the coffee, finally noticing the note I stuck to it.

[THE NOTE:

'Hope you enjoy the biscuits. Don't overwork yourself. Take care.

Yours truly, Kazutora. ♡']

After quickly reading it, I saw her smile and taped the note on her decor wall, a place where she sticks and displays all memorable items she gets. I know this because she told me about it before.

My heart felt all warm and fuzzy, I was glad to see her enjoying the biscuits and coffee. I felt super happy and excited about it but I heard a voice behind me, making me turn my head slowly.

"Uhm... Sir, is there anything you need or..-?" A woman asked in a soft tone, probably a bit scared at how I looked right now. It was probably because of how I was hiding and peeking behind a wall that made me look suspicious.

I quickly stood up properly and chuckled, "Nope. I'm actually on my way out now." She smiled and let me be.

I took one last glance to see if Y/n had finished eating the biscuits but when I peeked, I saw her looking in my direction. I froze after getting caught but... I swear a smile crept to her face and then she waved at me.

I stopped hiding behind the wall and revealed myself, waving back. She got up and started walking towards me, "Kazutora? You're still here, by the way, thanks for the food."

It made me feel weird whenever I saw her smiling and thanking me, covering my face I looked away and uttered a 'You're welcome'.

I was now content, so I bid my goodbye and returned to the pet shop.
