Leaving him, Tsuna returns to the counter, the thought of the cafe closing returned, forcing a sigh out of him. His thoughts were interrupted by a comment, "It doesn't taste bad." Looking up, he stared at Reborn only to have their eyes meet. Sitting in silence Tsuna looks towards the espresso in Reborn's hand, "How much is it? I'll be the first customer of the day." As much as Tsuna didn't like the man's first impression, having a customer made him think that the idea of closing down the cafe seem, well ridiculous.

==========

Laying out the table cloth of every tables, Tsuna hums to himself, it has been a week ever since the last encounter with Reborn, which he was quite glad that he hasn't seen him. Looking up over to the clock hanged on the wall, it read 6:30am. 'So another 30 minutes till opening.' Thinking to himself, he finishes off the preparations to the table, then moves into the kitchen to start preparing the dishes and cups. As he does that the door opens creating a jingle noise, "Sorry for not being here on my last shift owner." A young male, with messy, raven hair says, he wore a white collar shirt with a navy blue, thin sweater accompanied with denim jeans. He runs the back if his neck and bows slightly as an apology, quickly shifting behind the counter he places on the apron. "Was it busy last time?" He questions Tsuna, turning to him with a bright smile.

Sighing Tsuna leans onto the closest table, "Where were you Yamamoto? No call, not even a notice in your last shift." His stern look was clear as he stared straight into Yamamoto's eyes, he could only pass a smile and claps his hand together. Knowing he would be forgiven, he gives a small bow with a wink. Starting up the coffee machines he cleans out the residue that remain from last time, a thing they must do for hygienic purposes, he turns water on and off a couple of times. Soon after he runs a shot test by putting in grounded coffee beans into the portafilter, then carefully placing the portafilter into it's slot, pressing the shot button Yamamoto waits. "It's looks good, it doesn't seem burnt." Tsuna says as he checks the shot.

They continue to prep until open hours, as they finish the preparations the jingle could be heard from the door once more. Tsuna turns to see the cause of the noise, "Sorry we are not open. Wait you?!" In shock he recognized this specific person, pointing at him with mixed emotions, his mouth hung open. Confused Yamamoto pokes his head out to take a look at the sudden raise of voice, he focuses on a rather tall male.

The male as we all could guess had a distinguished fedora, he stared at Tsuna with a smirk. "Hold your mouth, who knows what could crawl in there." His sudden comment made the young owner close his mouth, noticing the male staring at his pointed finger, he retracts it to avoid any close up situations. If you do not remember, a gift:

Having enough of the finger pointing, the annoyed Reborn does the unthinkable. Thud! The menu was thrown towards Tsuna, smacking his head. Clutching his head, Tsuna snaps, "Ouch! What was that for- woah!" Being grabbed by the hands, he is now pinned to the wall, struggling against Reborn strength they look into one another's eyes.

Shaking his head to remove the scene, Tsuna passes a stern look towards Reborn. "For a matter of fact, you have opened 10 minutes late." Checking his watch, both Yamamoto and Tsuna are astonished by the fact that they didn't pay attention. Yamamoto flipped the sign and released a sigh, looking at the male he proceeds to do his job.

"This way for your seat sir." After taking his seat, Reborn analyses Yamamoto. He noticed that his collar was buttoned unevenly, his hair was messy and that he had a red mark on his hand. Yamamoto paid attention to what Reborn was doing, he interrupted with a question. "What would you like to have today?" Passing the menu towards Reborn.

Meanwhile Tsuna peaking out from within the kitchen, praying for his worker, his best friend's safety. "Please let nothing happen. Not to Yamamoto." He held his hand together worried, as the memory played in his head.

Yamamoto returns to the kitchen and turns to Tsuna, "He said you know his order. He wouldn't say anything else other than picking out," after a brief hesitation Yamamoto just gave an awkward smile. Sighing Tsuna rolled his eyes and nods as the order was an expresso with caramel, raising an eyebrow to the hesitation he begins to interrogate the smiling male.

Holding his salary as hostage the male cracked easily to the following questions,

"Other than picking out what?"

"No, it's nothing. Haha don't worry Tsuna." Yamamoto quickly responded with a confident look. Of course it didn't work on Tsuna.

"You have been gone from your shift for an entire 5 days, your pay is at risk Yamamoto." Yes, the threaten of his wage was problematic.

"Wait no! He picked out the fact my hair was messy, my buttoned were done weirdly and that I had a mark on my hand. I said it was nothing didn't I?" Answering with honesty, Yamamoto did not wish to have a deduction in pay.  Tsuna can tell that there were no lies so he let it slide, slowly he begins to make the expresso. "Hey Tsuna, how do you know his order? You know one another?" Yamamoto questions as he begins to cleans the cups, Tsuna instantly turns to shake his head.

Giving Yamamoto a slap to the arm he responds flustered, "No. Of course not! He, he just came last week as a customer." Noticing the reaction Yamamoto just nodded while giggling, to avoid being slapped once more, he walked away. After a while Tsuna goes to deliver the expresso, Reborn sitting reading a magazine. As a question was going to be asked the door jingles again. "Ah, welcome!" Abruptly turning his attention away from Reborn, Tsuna greets a silverette. He wore a red polo shirt, leather black jacket with black jeans. The had a belt chain, hooked on his pants, and a cigarette lit in his hand.

He looked over to Tsuna, then further to Reborn, "Is this everyone here?" Without greeting he questioned, there was a paper in his hand, and a glare in his eyes. 'This isn't a great start to the day.' Tsuna sweat drops at this new scenario.
