Chapter 2

As Satoru left the café, he felt as if he forgot something important. Shoot, he thought to himself. He forgot to ask Suguru for his number. He didn't want to go back in there, since he thought it would be embarrassing to go back just to ask for his number. He sighed sadly. He'll have to hope he'll be back tomorrow.

He thought about Suguru, his thoughts tracing around him. He was so lost in thought, that he didn't realize someone tapped his shoulder. "Excuse me?" The girl asked shyly. "Could you be the influencer Satoru Gojo?" He paused. Oh crap, he said in his head. I forgot to bring my cap and mask. He clicked his tongue frustrated, but turned back to turned back to the girl smiling at her. "Yes. It's me." He smiled at her, the fake plastered smile he gave for the whole internet. The second Gojo made eye contact with her, she instantly screamed. "AHHHH!!! It really is you! Can I have a picture with you? "She asked He sighed. It was just her anyways, right? "Sure." He said in his charming tone. She squealed. She grabbed her phone from her pocket in a rush, and took a picture with Gojo, wrapping her arm around his shoulders and held the phone high, enough to see the view of the sky and to capture the both of them. Satoru felt a bit uncomfortable, since the girl hugged him as if she was his girlfriend.

As soon as the girl thanked him and walked away, another wave of girls came quickly, as they didn't want to miss an opportunity to take a picture with THE Satoru Gojo. He let out a frustrated sight quietly, cursing himself for forgetting to bring a mask. Just as he was about to go take pictures with them like a miserable bird, he saw a car park in front, honking. "Sorry girls, he's coming with us." Nanami called out. Satoru looked in the car to see Nanami and Mei Mei. He quickly looked at them and bowed down in gratitude before turning back to all the fan girls. "Sorry ladies, I got to go somewhere. Catch you guys later~" He winked at them as they all screamed and swooned over him.

He hopped in the back, laughing while asking, "When did you guys get here? And more importantly, why are you here, Nanami? Aren't you supposed to be looking after the bakery?" Nanami sighed. "I'm doing some errands with Mei. I left Ino to look after the bakery. Satoru raised an eyebrow, suspicious of what Nanami was saying. "What errands?" Mei Mei laughed and said, "You see, this shy timid boy asked me to help him write a book, because he wants to pursue that dream. Since I'm the nice lady I am, I decided to help him. On one condition." She smirked like an evil Disney antagonist. "He has to help me try on the new maid dress I bought for my employees. AND, he has to work at the bar for tonight." Nanami groaned while driving as Satoru and Mei died out bursting in laughter. "Looks like the Kento Nanami isn't so icy anymore! But seriously, why do you want to become a writer?" Nanami paused, then slightly smiled, a small but noticeable curve on his cherry pink lips. "Actually, I met someone really great. I never got her name, but she also worked at a bakery. She was the one who made me realize I extremely like bread. She told me her dream of becoming an author before she..." Nanami froze. "Before she?" Satoru said impatiently, waiting for Nanami to spill the tea. "Before she died, due to stage 4 cancer." Mei Mei nor Nanami himself could hear, but Satoru could hear his voice break a bit at the cancer part. Satoru's expression and tone immediately softened, sympathizing with Nanami. "I'm sorry, I'm sure she's in a better she's in a better place now. "Nanami was shocked, hearing this type of sympathy from Satoru. "It's okay, I'm sure she would've wanted me to live on." Satoru smiled. No matter how cold he seems, he always has a soft heart. He thought perplexed in a good way, Mei didn't notice the emotion in the car since she was busy in her own thoughts. "We're here, here at the glorious casino I own." Satoru looked out the window and saw a grand hotel with a casino connected with a bridge. You seriously own this place?" Satoru said impressed. Mei laughed deviously. "Hop out boys, Oh, wait!" She grabbed a mask out of her purse and took off Nanami's hat. "Hey, that's mine." "But I won't let you wear a hat when you're working. And anyways, he needs it more than you." Nanami rolled his eyes and let Satoru take his cap. Satoru laughed and wore the items before getting out of the car to walk to the grand casino.
