It was a gloomy, rainy day outside, but inside the café was warm and welcoming. The smell of brewing coffee floated in the air and soft music played. This, along with the weather, encouraged people to stay and chat with their friends even after they had finished their coffee and light meal. This café was the perfect place to also come to be alone if you just needed a place to relax.
That was unless you were Tokoyami. He had come to this café thinking he could have a moment to himself before he had to head off to work. It was going very well until he seen an old friend from high school walk into the door. He hadn’t spoken to anyone from high school in five years. But that didn’t change the fact, that his heart sped up and he started to panic slightly.
Shoji Mezo had been a guy of very little words back in high school, but was one of the most respectful. Tokoyami couldn’t recall of any rumors spreading about him. He had been well liked among the school.
So why was it that Tokoyami started panicking seeing Shoji? From his reaction, people could probably get the wrong idea and wrongly label the other as his high school bully. Then there could be the people that would label it as a high school sweet heart relationship gone wrong. Both would be wrong. In fact, Shoji and Tokoyami didn’t actually know each other very well. Although Shoji made it his business to show Tokoyami kindness when it mattered the most.
