Explain

~Third Person P.O.V~

Touka continued to stare like an idiot so Himika elbowed her side, making her snap back to reality.

"Thanks." Touka sighed. "Should I take their order, or...?"

"I can do it," Himika scowled. "I do know one of them after all."

Touka hands Himika a notebook and pen, giving her a grateful nod before turning to the cups sitting on the counter.

"Hello, how are you, Juuzou?" Himika asked politely, giving him the equivalent of a smile (a nod).

"I'm quite well Himika!" Juuzou grinned.

"So you two do know each other?" The tall bulky man asked, glancing at the two.

"She was helping Hide deliver packages and we ran into each other!" He explained.

"Pretty much." Himika agreed, lifting her pen to her notepad. "Are you both ready to order?"

"Oh! I'll have cake!" Juuzou exclaims, his eyes already zeroed in on the display behind the counter. "Strawberry please!"

"I'm not sure, what do you recommend?" The man asked, looking to Himika.

"We have excellent sandwiches, although I much prefer the coffee," Himika answers, forcing her nose to not wrinkle at the mention of sandwiches.

"Then I'll take a turkey sandwich and a cup of hot coffee!" He finally ordered.

"Coming right up, I'll be back later with your orders." Himika robotically replied, gliding over to the counter in her combat boots. "Strawberry cake and coffee."

"Got it." Touka nodded, getting to work.

She opened the refrigerated display and took out the strawberry cake, placing it on the counter, then diverting her attention to making coffee. Himika simply waited patiently, watching as Touka went about her work.

The door behind the counter swung open and Touka jumped, spilling whatever progress she had made all over the floor.

"Sorry Touka," The manager chuckled. "Why don't you step back for a minute, I'll make the coffee."

Touka raised an eyebrow but stepped down. "Sure."

Once the manager took over, Himika dragged Touka to the side.

"You wanted to tell me something earlier," She stated. "About... Shikamaru."

Her cheeks flushed red, which was much more noticeable on her pale skin.

"Ah, yes," She hummed. "To start, can you remember anything else about him?"

"Like what he looks like?" Himika asked, tilting her head.

Touka was tempted to coo at her but held her tongue. "Sure, that and what he was like."

"He had spikey black hair, but I bet that it's soft." She started, her fingers twitching as if she was petting a cat. "He had peachy skin, and dark eyes, his eyes are quite... nice."

Himika struggled with her words, not looking directly at Touka for the longest time.

"He was also taller than me, but maybe that's changed," Himika mumbled, looking her self up and down. "Do I seem taller?"

"Not really." Touka shrugged. "You haven't even bee here that long."

"Oh." She grumbled, then moving onto the next question. "He's also really nice, or at least to me. He acts kind of lazy but is actually really smart. We would go 'cloud gazing,' as he called it."
