It was a rainy Sunday afternoon and Haruka was helping her Grandmother with her flower shop. The shelves were lined with colorful flowers of many types, each releasing their own sweet smell. She was making sure that all the flowers had clean water, when the door opened signaling that there was a customer.
Haruka turned around to see a young man with cyan hair holding a broken umbrella and his hair and clothes were wet from the rain.
"I'm sorry, would you happen to have a spare umbrella? Mine broke and I need to go to work." He said.
Seeing him in such a state, Haruka couldn't just ignore the situation.
"Please wait a bit." She said as she went to the back of the store. She came back a few minutes later with her umbrella and gave it it to him.
"Thanks. I'll drop by and return it later." The young man said as he left the store.
Haruka watched him leave with a smile, happy that she was able to be of some help. With that, Haruka went back to work as her Grandmother watched her too with a small smile.
Will he ever come back? The thought repeated many times while she worked.
Hours passed and it was time for the store to close. Haruka looked out the window to see that the rain had stopped and there weren't many clouds in sight leaving room for the stars to be seen. Her Grandmother turned off the lights and walked outside with Haruka and locked the door.
Haruka took a moment to look behind her but there wasn't anyone else around. With that Haruka went home.
Not much time later he stood in front of the store. If he had been a few minutes earlier he would've been able to return the umbrella.
"I'll come back tomorrow…" He said to himself as he too went home.
