Doves are not only those birds used to represent peace. They are also people who are the opposite of peace. The nickname 'Doves' was given people who work as investigators at the CCG, Comission of Counter Ghoul. The goal of this institution is to destroy all the ghouls.

They are the greatest enemies of ghouls, well, obviously since they want to kill all of us. The people who work there are often humans who lost their parents to ghouls when they were kids. They stay at the CCG where they get shelter and learn how to be an investigator. A good thing actually this way they get an education and a job. And revenge.

It is not Friday yet.

Just wanted to note that. I'm really looking forward to the date. It's only Thursday. Close but not close enough. Today I have a long shift at the Anteiku so I will be distracted at least. Otherwise I would probably sit at home thinking about the date and what could possibly go wrong. What if he found out that I'm a ghoul? Since he's pretty sure a human. At this point I'm rather sure about that since I would've smelled ghouliness for sure.

Even while I was working I thought about the date. How will it be? Will he like me? What am I gonna wear? And most importantly why the heck am I doing this? What if something comes out of this, how am I going to hide that I'm a ghoul?

I notice myself looking up to the door every now and then to see if maybe he turns up again. It's the same thing I did the last couple of days. Sometimes this distracts me from work so much I almost spill something or similar.

Yesterday I actually spilled a drink. Unfortunately on a customer. She ordered a soda and I got it for her. Then I heard the doorbell going off and my head snapped to the door. I was just in the act of placing the drink on the table so when I looked away it slipped from my hand and fell over. The soda was spilled all over the table and the customers lap. She screamed in surprise and that was when I looked back at my work and noticed what I did.

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry! I will get a towel for you!", I stutter apologetic.

"Oh shit! Yeah, that would be great, thanks. That is cold oh my god! But please, don't freak out, that could happen to everyone! It's just cold and wet that's all!", she says trying to smile.

I half-smile back but fail pretty much and hurry to get a towel and some wipes. I also take the now empty glass with me. When I get back to the table she already helped herself with some tissues. I hand her the towel and wipe the table with the wipes.

She wipes her lap dry as good as possible then hands me the towel back, "Thank you."

"Of course, it's my fault after all. I'll get you a new soda immediately!", I exclaim.

"That would be great."

I get her the soda and she smiles at me. I smile back and go to the bar where I want to hide forever in embarassement. How shameful! I lost my mind over this stupid guy! What did I get myslef into? What if I just ate him? No! Whatever you do don't eat him! Yeah, whatever.

Now, a day later, I'm still ashamed of what happened. We probably lost a customer to my clumsiness. Was she a ghoul though? Maybe she was, then we possibly didn't lose a customer.

Either way I have to get a hold of what I do. Stupid cute guy, why is he on my mind all the time? It's just a date! Even though I haven't had one in a while so maybe I'm simply enjoying that "date feeling". Maybe I shoud really eat him afterwards then I wouldn't have to care much longer and I don't get myself much deeper into something I could regret. No! Don't eat him!
