Takes place right after 'Life as a Ghoul'
I woke to my alarm off and turned it off. I got up and sighed. I walked out to see Morgana and Kuro at the balcony door. I chuckled as the pair ran over to me. I crouched and pat them. They are so cute. I quickly fed the pair, then made a coffee and walked out to the balcony, leaning against the railing.
"Morning Aki!" I heard Miyu yelled.
I looked over and smiled.
"Morning Miyu." I greeted.
Miyu giggled.
"Are you working today?" Miyu asked.
I nod.
"Yeah, from two-pm to two-am." I replied.
"Really? That sucks." Miyu said.
I yawned.
"And you?" I asked.
"Yeah, nine to three." Miyu replied.
"You should get ready." I said.
Miyu nod, then walked back into her apartment. I yawned and sighed. I wonder what the day will bring? I sighed. I don't even really want to think about it. I yawned and sighed. I want to go back to bed. I walked back inside, drinking my coffee. I should get dress. Knowing my luck, Miyu would want me to walk her to work, like always. I quickly finished my coffee, then got dress and brushed my hair. I then heard a loud knocking on my door. I chuckled, walking out and grabbed my shoulder bag and walked to the door, putting my shoes on. I opened it to see Miyu.
"Let's go!" Miyu yelled.
I nod, walking out and pull out my keys. I closed and locked my door.
"Thanks." Miyu whispered as we start walking.
"It's okay." I said.
Miyu giggled, wrapping her arms around my arm. I looked at her to see Miyu was smiling. We slowly made our way to Miyu's work, she works at a small café. It's a great place, I love going there while Miyu is working and I have the day off. I always hide in the corner with a book or just to study, everyone knows me there. Of course, everyone's human there. Once there, Miyu ran in and I yawned as I walked in. I could use another coffee.
"Morning." a worker greeted.
I smiled.
"Morning." I whispered.
"Just your usually Aki?" Miyu asked.
"Yup." I replied.
I sat down and yawned.
"What time do you work?" a worker asked.
I looked at him, he has short straight black hair and deep blue eyes. His name is Yoshio Hanasaki.
"I start at two this afternoon and I finish at two tomorrow morning." I replied.
"Wow, a long shift." Yoshio said.
"Yup but I like the night shifts. Not much really happens." I admitted.
Miyu walked over and sat a cup down in front of me.
"I don't like them." Miyu told me.
"You hate all my shifts." I said.
"So! I worry!" Miyu yelled.
I chuckled.
"I'll be fine Miyu." I told her.
Miyu sighed.
"I know but still." Miyu whispered.
"And thanks." I said, grabbing the cup.
I took a sip and smiled. Yoshio sat down in front of me and I looked at him.
"Are you sure you are not over working yourself?" Yoshio asked.
I nod, then yawned. Yoshio sighed and I chuckled.
"Aki." Miyu whispered.
I looked at her and smiled.
"You are a worry." Miyu whispered.
"We better get ready to open up." Yoshio said.
I looked as him as he stood up, then walked off. I saw a few more workers and smiled, drinking my coffee. When they open, a few people came in. This place his a hidden gem. Great coffee and from what I heard, great food. When I finished my coffee. I payed and left. I should duck in and get more food for Kuro and Morgana. My phone then started ringing so I quickly pulled it out to see it was Yu. I smiled, answering it.
"Hey Yu, what's up?" I asked.
"Not much, trying to help my mum at work at the moment, taking a break." Yu replied. "Do you work today?" Yu then asked.
"Yeah, I start at two." I replied.
"Greta, I'll drop by then. I need a few things." Yu said.
"Alright." I said.
"Great! See you then man." Yu said.
He hanged up and I chuckled, putting my phone away. I yawned and sighed. I'll get the food later. I need a nap before work or I won't make it.
