Somehow today is quite a slow day in the office, Cassiel feel that today is a very lucky day, not only he bumped into a beauty in the morning, but even now at the office, work is slow and easy, the manager even is on a business trip, simply put, today is paradise.

Ding. Cassiel's phone sounded. He looked at the phone for a second and see that it's Yuria texting  him, 'Hello, later let's meet up at Gardenia Cafe, it's somewhere near the Skyline shopping mall, is it ok?'

Cassiel casually replied, 'It's okay, I know where that is, see you later.' --  "Alright, sent", cassiel murmured.

"Hey you can't reply a girl that stern, no wonder you single up until now" , Catherine suddenly says while peeking at his phone with curious eyes. Catherine is one of his co-workers, she started working at the company at the same time as him, so he is quite close with her.

"hey cath, you can't just read my phone like that" , Cassiel says while hiding his phone away. Catherine smile a little while saying playfully, " well, who asked you to type while smiling like that? everyone would be curious, so cut the chase, is it a new girl?" 

"It's not" , Cassiel casually says. "it's just someone that would thank me after I help her this morning" 

"Hoo, yup, it's crazy that someone would be interested in you, well, that's nice, treat me to some food if you manage to get together, and I don't mind becoming your go-to-ask about relationship, I'm an expert you know" , Catherine says.

"ya ya.. it's not like I'm going for her" , Cassiel says.

Soon, time flies and it's already time to go home, Cassiel as usual when not working late, packed his things, preparing to leave and go to Gardenia Cafe. Gardenia Cafe is quite a famous cafe, it's most of the time packed with customers, they are famous with their beautiful garden style cafe, inside, you don't feel like you are in the middle of a city, as if you change dimensions.

"So this is the place... It's rather huge, more like a glass house at this point." Cassiel casually says.

"You got it right Mister, basically Gardenia Cafe is a cafe made inside a huge glass house, our specialities are sweets, and you eat it amidst the beautiful flowers, gardens and music, adding another flavorful experience for you to taste" 

"Nice to meet you, you should be a new customer here since you marveled our glass house, I am Baroney, a staff working here, please come in" , a tall man with formal attire greeted him and explained warmly.

"Oh hello, nice to know you, I am cassiel, Indeed this is my first time here and I am in awe" , Cassiel replied while walking in.

"I'm honored, please enjoy" , the man replied while opening the door.

.......

Upon entering, Cassiel saw a huge garden with seemingly all kind of plants growing, he walked for a while enjoying the scenery while looking for Yuria. After a short walk, he found where Yuria is sitting at, it's in a corner where less people going to pass through, it's surrounded by beautiful flowers of red and white.

"Hello, have you been waiting long?" , Cassiel asked.

"Oh hello, We are just here not long ago, come and sit, let me introduce you, this is Daphney, she is an archeologist, having just return from Africa after some explorations, she's just 20 years old, actually she has not graduate university yet, but during mid-term holiday she tends to follow his father in an exploration" , Yuria blabbered.

"You are such a loose mouth, I don't even need to say anything about myself" , she says to Yuria then turn her head to cassiel and says, "Well, that's that, I think it's very clear about myself, nice to meet you."

Cassiel smiled awkwardly a little before saying, "hello, nice to meet you too, I'm Cassiel, well I am a marketer." Cassiel then continued to take a seat.

"What would you like to order?" , Yuria asked.

"Well, let's see, probably something heavy, I haven't had dinner yet, any recommendation?" , Cassiel asked.

"Oh, you probably want to try the Star dish here, it's Herbal Ramen, well it doesn't sound delicious, but in reality it's super delicious, well that's what the internet says" , Yuria says.

After some thought and looking at the menu, Cassiel decided to try the herbal ramen, while both girls order what they want something light. 

"So I'm going to straightforwardly ask you, Yuria here says you are a kind and interesting guy so I wonder if you would like to join our cult?" , Daphney suddenly asked  with a serious face.

"huh? yes? what?" , Cassiel instinctively blurted.
