"So, what is he doing here early in the morning?" Sakura eyed Yuki who is beside him digging in her breakfast happily as he asked Kotoha in front of him.

Kotoha placed down the plate of Omellete Rice in front of him and didn't bother answering him, she just flashed him a grin before going back to her morning routine in her Cafe.

"Why so interested, Sakura-kun? Don't tell me-?" Yuki turned to his direction and moved her eyebrow up and down as if to tease him, but the former immediately avoided her gaze, and shouted.

"I-I'm not interested in anything about you." He started, with his cheeks blushing furiously. "It was just a simple question I've blurted out of the blue." He continued calming down before bringing his attention back to his meal.

"Now, that I think about it, Sakura... Have you done your homework, already? You can copy mine if you want." Yuki tried openning up the conversation again as she too, fixed herself in her seat.

Sakura swallowed his food and stared at her. "Is that real? Ehem... No. I can manage." He was eager actually but then he got embarassed so he just continued munching down on his plate.

Kotoha sighed after seeing the two's hopeless situation and called Yuki's attention. The latter shifted her gaze to Kotoha who was behind the counter in front of them, leaning on it.

"What?" She asked.

"Can I get your number? I forgot to ask for it last night."

Yuki furrowed her brows in confusion and hesitantly fished out her phone from her back pocket.

She then gave it to Kotoha. And Kotoha feeling mischievous today brought out her phone and tap on it before typing down on Yuki's phone... A few second later, Sakura's phone started ringing to which the latter immediately took action to and brought it out.

"W-wha-?!" he exaggeratedly shouted but Kotoha cut him off.

"Save it, Sakura." She said smiling at him. Yuki was still in confusion  as she receives her phone. She then browses into her phone registry to see Sakura's number already on it. She smiles and spoke.

"Yeah, save my number, Sakura." Sakura only stared at her as she was smiling at him, unexpectedly.

'She was like a child who only have her first contacts.' He thought as he watches her looking on her phone now and obliviously let out a small grin. (He was one too.)'

'You can properly smile huh, newbie.' he thought before turning back to his front and remained silent.

Yuki shouted in surprise when she caught sight of the time.

"Oh!!! I'm running late!" she said before hurrying to get her bag. She was already finished with her meal. She was supposed to run out of the Cafe when she caught sight of the spaced out Sakura.

She locked eyes with Kotoha, sharing with her a playful grin.

"Sakura-kun..." Yuki approached Sakura who was still sitting in the stool, head up in space. But when he finally registered Yuki's space in front of him he flinched, cheeks flushing from sheer embarrassment but somehow he couldn't get away from her.

'O-oi! What are you doing?' he couldn't find his voice.

Yuki continued leaning forward, her lips now just a few centimeters from his ear.

Sakura was still flushing in embarrassment unable to move. "Bo!!!" She screamed in his ears surprising Sakura a lot he ended up falling off his seat.
