Kujo then cleared his throat after what seems like a forever silence, which is only ten minutes. Jaylen looked at him when he heard Kujo clearing his throat. "Is there anything you want to know about me?" Kujo asked, curious. "Umm.. Not really." Jaylen mumbled as he looked down, playing with his fingers under the table, although he is, in fact, curious to know more about the male but he doesn't want to be too invasive on their first official meeting.

Kujo nodded. "Can i ask you something then?" He asked and Jaylen is praying hard in his mind, praying that Kujo would not ask him about the wrist bands, as he held his breath, waiting for the question. "Are you very shy? Or are you an introvert?" Kujo asked and Jaylen heaved a sigh of relieve mentally. "I guess so.. I'm not the type to talk alot." He said and Kujo nodded. "We are kind of the opposite then. Since i like to talk." Kujo said with a laugh and Jaylen faked a laugh to go along with him.

Just as they are talking halfway, Jaylen's phone rang and he excused himself. Once outside the cafe, he answered it and he shuts his eyes as shouts of all kinds of profanities hit him and he sighed. "I'll go home now." Jaylen answered softly and ended the call. He then went back to Kujo after calming himself. "Kujo? I know it's on short notice but.. I have to go." He said yet his eyes showed signs of reluctance to leave the place.

Kujo noticed but since he still does not know Jaylen that well, he decided to ignore it. "I'll tell the rest." Kujo smiled and lead Jaylen out of the cafe. "Can you text me once you reach home?" Kujo asked, worried that something might happen to him. Jaylen looked at Kujo with a confused look as no one has ever said that to him before. "Umm.. Okay." He said with an unsure tone and Kujo chuckled. "See you next time?" Kujo asked, hoping that they will meet again and Jaylen nodded with a smile. "Thanks.. For today." He said shyly and left the mall.
