Shi-- !!?
"Why does it have to rain now! Curse the sky! I curse them! I'm always unlucky in rainy days.." A man in suit mumbled as he continue to run searching for a place he can stay for the meantime. Holding his bag on top of his head as a protection.
Yes! Finally!
Ding! Ding!
"Wooh! Safe~" I said as I entered a coffee shop I just found. I took out my handkerchief to wipe my face and clothes.
"Oh! Gin-san!? You looked quite devastated?! Are you depressed or something?" I turned around to see who just speaks, and its one of the workers holding a tray.
I looked at him thinking how does he know my name? Do I know this person?
"Uh? Do I know you?" I asked and he suddenly looks like a puppy left by his owner.
And he just starts tearing up and sobs!! Hold on!!??
"Oi!!!?? Why are you starting to cry! Are you a child!!?"
"Because Gin-san forgets me! How could you forget your most trusted underling!! Its Domo, Boss!" Ohhh!!!
Wait.. what?!
Domo?
Domo?!!
"DOMO?!? That chubby kid?" I was taken a back and pointed at his face.
"H-how did you become so tall and..." I look at his physical appearance once more and.. "Fit!!"
"Hehehe~ I trained, Boss and go to the Gym during free time and vacation."
Woah! Is this the same kid that follows me every now and then after I saved his butt to his bullies? Hah! What a coincidence.
"Hmm.. You look good I must say!" I touch my chin and nodded as approval.
I turn my back and takes a spot near the windows where I can see the rain that keeps pouring. Seems like it wont stop for a while, I want to go home and rest on my bed. Crossing my arms and legs as I looked at him and said.
"Then you must treat me today as a compensation to those days when you keep pestering me."
He look stunned at the moment and just smiled in the end.
"Sure thing, Boss! What would you like? I recommend the lemon parfait and some hot dark chocolate."
Hmm? Those are my favorites? Is he stalking me ever since?
"Okay, I'll order those. Make sure to doub-"
"Double the chocolate!"
"And the parfait has real lem-
"Has real lemons and extra cream on top. Got you, Boss!" He writes down my supposed terms on my order like he reads my mind and immediately runs to the kitchen.
Now I have answered the question in my mind. He 'DID' stalked me!! That kid!
I just pressed my temples as my head throbbed in pain.
After some time, my order is here.
Hah~ That aroma and amazing looks of parfait. I looked like an idiot with an imaginary drool on the side of my lips. Oh well, whatever, it's my favorites.
"Ahh~ thanks!" I smiled happily as if I forget all of my troubles in life.
"No worries, Boss!"
I start to enjoy my food and missed one thing..
That a certain someone is secretly fangirling on me..
'Ah! I'm relieved that boss didn't see my blushing face. I need to restrain this urging feelings more or else I might pounce myself on boss.'
'This is bad.'
'Boss, why do you look so handsome and cool as always.'
'When you looked at me longer for the first time after so many years and praised me for my new looks, I...'
'This feeling, is too good to be true.'
"Boss, I like you!"
'Eh?'
'Ehhh??!!'
'Oh shi- I blurted that out loud.'
I almost choked and spit the drink on myself when this kid.. I mean Domo blurted something crazy.
"What did you say?"
He panics and I could see his face reddened like a ripe tomato.
"B-boss! W-what I j-just said is.. u-uhh e-ehh!!"
"What?! And speak clearly! I dont understand a thing you say!"
"S-so.. Sorry Boss!!" He bowed and stay like that for a minute and looks me straight in the face.
"It's true, Boss! I have admired or liked you for a long time because you're so handsome and cool. I just cant help myself and did not notice that I've been looking on you!"
"And also, you are the reason why I change for the better so I can proudly stand by your side! Sorry for the sudden words! It's okay if you dont answer or reciprocate my feeling for you!" He bowed his head again.
And I'm just here..
Stunned by his honest words.
Or not.
This is quite embarrassing..
Damn Kid!
I just noticed that his co-workers and some of the customers are watching us as if we're directing a movie.
Tsk!
How much do this day gets worst.
Or not.
I stand up from my seat and...
....
....
....
Smacks this damn kid in the head.
Everybody gasped.
One winced in pain.
And the other sending a glare on that certain person.
"Why do you have to say that now!"
"Damn Kid!"
'Idiot.'
'Idi-'
'I-'
"Why not much more earlier!!"
Everybody shocked and gasped in the revelation.
One still in pain but stunned in the words.
And the other, whose face is red from embarassment.
Maybe, rainy day is not bad at all..
Because you can still feel warm inside.
For as the suddenly rain stops pouring in..
We can hear two hearts beats uncontrollably.
