Cafe

"Time to wake up", someone called his attention and made him raise his head. He leaned on the table and fell asleep. He felt pangs on his head. It must have been the sleepless nights.  

"Your phone had been ringing for like a hundred times", the blonde looked down and gave a grin. "I was planning to turn off my phone but I wonder how he'll react with that", Trafalgar sat straight and saw newly served coffee.

The blonde picked his phone and read some messages. "These words are hard to swallow", he sighed. The man sat in front of him.

"How's your part-time?", Sabo sat in front of him and gave a wide smile. "Every day was noisy", Trafalgar clicked his tongue. "I heard my younger brother is at the same school. How is he?", Sabo leaned on the table and his expression suddenly changed. "I guess he's having lots of fun", Trafalgar stirs his coffee. "Hey, Law. We're planning to have hiking with the rest of the crew. Do you think you can spare some time?", Sabo gave an invitation. "I have my hands full", Trafalgar rejected.

"That's a waste. I even prepared a lot of cake", Sabo whined. "I hate bread, idiot", Trafalgar sighed. "I'll get you to like it", Sabo winked.

"There's this female student...", Trafalgar opened. Sabo's all ears to what he had to say. "Nevermind", he looked away. "Eih?! I was waiting for you to say. You met her in the clinic. She always comes by. Then, she suddenly fainted. You stayed by her side. You looked at how hard-working she is. Then, when she woke up, you both suddenly made a confession. Then you two fell in love!!! But then, you found out she had a terminal disease. It was a short time but she was so precious to you. So before she even dies, you asked her to marry you", Sabo was on fire.

"How absurd", Trafalgar sighed.

"Hmm? Law-san is in love with someone?", Koala appeared from nowhere. "That's something new. But high school students, aren't you ashamed of yourself?", Hak joined the conversation. "Who cares about the boundaries?! You just have to love who you decided to!!!", Ivancov made a dramatic entrance. "Isn't that correct, Dragon?", Ivancov looked for confirmation. "Ryou-san, I mean, Principal", Trafalgar was startled with his presence. 

"That is indeed a tough situation. Law. Why don't you talk more about that with me in school?", he emitted an intimidating aura. Trafalgar's phone rang. They all looked at his phone. Their eyes sparkled.

He picked it.

"Hello".

"Uhmm... Clears throat... I know it's already beyond your work time".

"Then"

"Ah, tomorrow's a holiday. Robin-san told me you're going to drop Marco-sensei's belonging. Can I...".

"Can you what?"

"Marco-sensei. I owe him a lot. It's just proper for me to pay my debts. You don't have to worry about my presence. If it's just possible...".

"Tell me what you want already".

The group turned red. Ivancov whispered to Sabo. "I Didn't know Law-boy is such a dear", he chuckled.

"Can you make an official business for me to tag along? I will represent the school council in giving him a token. I just need someone to make a letter for my parents".

"Why should-?", Trafalgar was about to answer when Dragon took the phone.

"Your request has been made valid. I'll be sending it to your Father", Dragon assured.

"Eh, Principal. Are you with the school nurse?".

"I hope you'll have a good time with Marco-sensei" Dragon ended the call and typed something on Trafalgar's phone.
