Y/N POV

My eyes are closed for some reason. My arms are crossed and my head is resting on my arms.

Oh yeah...I got really tired and laid my head down for a bit...

I feel someone lay something soft over me...maybe a blanket?

I would open my eyes...but...I'm too tired to...

I feel myself drift off in a dreamless sleep.

I shoot straight up at the sound of my phone vibrating.

Huh...? Who's calling me?

I pick up my phone and see it's Ella.

What does she want? Is there something wrong back at the café?

I hit answer.

"Yo, how's the café doing?" I ask into the phone.

"I sent emails on how the café is doing. Check them. It's doing great, by the way. Anyway, there's someone I want you to meet," Ella says over the phone.

"Who?"

"His name is Greed."

"What kind of name is that?"

" *snarky tone* I didn't take you as the type of person to judge people's names."

"Shut up...It's just an uncommon name."

"Okay...? Anyway, I left a package on your balcony. Check it out."

"...what?"

"I left a package-."

"I know that! But...you snuck over here?"

"Yeah. It was surprisingly easy. I dropped by early this morning. You were sound asleep at your desk with a blanket over you."

"Okay...Ella, I'm going to go check out that package...also check the emails...talk to you later."

"Bye. Tell me what you think of Greed."

"Okay, Bye."

I hang up.

I stand up and walk over to the balcony. Low and behold, there's a package sitting on the floor in front of the door.

Ella...what even...? Should I open it? Hmm...yeah, why not?

I pick up the package and bring it inside my room. I pick up a random throwing knife and cut the box open. Inside is a letter which reads:

Clementine,
It's *scribbled out 'T'* Dabi!
Long time no see.
I met this cool guy named Greed.
I think you should meet him.
I talked to your friend, Ella, who works at the café. She'll be the one to drop off this package.

Oh, this is Greed's hangout...
[insert random area]

I think that's all...I've already talked to Greed, and when you go to meet him, you should run into me.
Okay?

Okay...?

Cool...I'm pretty sure you'll go to meet him. Anyway...
See you then!
-Dabi

Okay...if I'm going to go meet someone...I should probably get dressed...huh...there's something else in here...huh? Another letter and...huh...a box...

I open the box. Inside, there's a necklace...no, it's a locket.

no, it's a locket
