"... I'll give you this. Give this back to me when we meet again. Crazy enough, right? But we will surely meet again..."

"(F/N)-senpai, do you realize that you are in the middle of your work?"

I moved my head up, still on dazed to the sudden voice that came in the storage room. I nuzzled my eyes and squinted it to see who it was

"(F/N)-senpai, you better wake up now, manager is on his way here" I jolted in surprise to see my junior in work, Akira, standing in front of me

"Thank you, Akira-chan" I stretched my hands and yawned silently. "Good thing it wasn't the manager who caught me" I grinned at her, still sleepy and had a zero motivation to work

"Do you work late last night in your other job?" she asked while stacking the books on the table

I shook my head and made a dry laughed "My three high school classmates are currently crashing in my house"

"Crashing in?!" she shouted in surprised but closed her mouth when she realized that she shouted "What do you mean?!"

"Well three of them are working in the same company and they were transferred here. So they don't have a place to stay right now, and they are still looking for a place for the four of them" I explained and sighed

"I thought only three? Why four?"

"There's a guy with them. My friend's boyfriend who is also working with them. I don't even know him"

"Why did you let them in?"

"They are my friends, they helped me a lot when I was in high school especially when I transferred to their school" I answered then noticed the book on Akira's hand

She noticed that I was looking at it and she smiled "I love this story" she giggled

"I only know what happened on page 269 and 270" I chuckled as I asked Akira to lend it to me "I actually want to read this, but he told me not to" my face turned red when memories from when I was in High school flowed back

"Senpai, your face is turning red." she teasingly told me and grabbed the book "We better hurry up"

We hurriedly put the books back on the shelf. I work at a bookstore near my house and sometimes at night I work at a restaurant owned by my uncle

"You two what are you doing inside? Even though there are no customers today, don't just skip your work" Our manager Yoshida-san shook his head as he entered the storage room "Hurry up and put those books back on the shelves"

We hurriedly follow his order and put the books on the shelves. After putting all the books, Akira and I arranged the books on the shelves on the floor and manager stayed on the front desk

But then, in the shelf I was arranging, the books of "The Last Valentine" were there. Why of all places?

"The Last Valentine" was the book I was eager to read but I couldn't, though I had one page of that book. Page 269 to 270. I was always tempted to read the book, but because of what he said, I couldn't read

"Ah, Fukuyama-san, it's been a while!" I heard manager's voice and wondered who it was. He sounded so excited. I tried to peek but I could only see the back of the customer

"It's been a while Yoshida-san."

"I thought you would not get the books you requested"

There was a loud laughed followed by a Kansai dialect "I was busy with my work"
