Hi people! This is my first fic so please be kind enough to read and review. In case you're wondering…well, this is going to be some kind of Natsumi-centric but then I would surely include the other characters in the show. He2…I know that I should've made something that would center more on Ban and Ginji but then I hope you'll support it…on with the fic
Disclaimer: I don't own the anime series Get Backers nor any of its characters. I'm just a plain fanfiction writer.
It was a just one of the typical days for this certain high school waitress. After school, she preceded immediately to the Honky Tonk for her job. After all, it was payday, and she needed money now more than anything in the world. She of course is Mizuki Natsumi. A 17-year old highschooler who has long black hair always tied in a ponytail paired up with those gray twinkling eyes which always matches her cheerful personality. But for now, she seems rather the opposite of her optimistic self…
Before entering the café, she plastered on a fake smile in her face…Jeez…I knew that I have a responsibility to pay my tuition fee but then…I have a lot of things to pay…urgh… I don't want anybody to find out about my financial problems…
"Good afternoon, Master!" Natsumi greeted.
"Huh? Oh, Hi Natsumi!" Paul took a glance at Natsumi before getting back to his reading. (a/n As we all know, he is usually accompanied by that newspaper )
Natsumi placed on her apron and started wiping the counter…
/Cling/
"Oh, Welcome!!" Natsumi smiled at the blond woman who just entered the café.
"Hi Natsumi, seems to me that the Get Backers aren't yet around." Hevn said as she scanned the place.
"They might have been doing something important" Paul interrupted.
"Yeah, like thinking of another lame excuse. Those two are late as usual." Hevn said with a hint of sarcasm in her voice.
"Don't worry Hevn they would be arriving here in no time. Anyways, do you want some coffee?" Natsumi asked.
"Sure, thanks Natsumi. Sometimes, I wonder when those two are going to change." Hevn frowned.
Nasumi giggled. She started imagining the usual scene that might happen a little while later when the Get Backers arrive.
"Eh? What are you smiling there Natsumi?" Hevn inquired.
"What? Oh…don't mind me…" Natsumi waved her hands guiltily at Hevn and immediately started to prepare the coffee she ordered.
"What's with her?" Natsumi overheard Hevn asking Paul.
"Well, I guess she's just happy…" Paul answered back without even putting the newspaper down.
sigh just happy…yeah right. I'm glad that they don't notice anything strange about me today. Actually, that's what I wanted them to believe in…that I'm happy…as usual.
/Cling/
The sound the door made interrupted Natsumi's thoughts.
"Huh? Oh, hi Ban! Hi Ginji!" Natsumi greeted them cheerfully, pushing aside her thoughts.
"Hi Natsumi-chan!" Ginji greeted back. Ban simply smirked.
"So, what's up Hevn?" Ban asked turning to Hevn.
Okay that's it. Chapter one of my first fic. Tell me what you think. Is it short? Should I change the title? Should I continue this? Or should I delete it? Reviews, comments, suggestions, violent reactions, and flames (yeah, I take those hurtful words as a challenge…waaah sobs…you're so mean. He2…lolz.) are accepted.
