That Night

Chapter 2: Old Friend

The girl walked out of the pub, Isogai following behind her. He turned back to lock the front door of the pub.

"Wooo~ it sure is cold out here," said the girl while trying to warm herself up with her hands. The next second, she felt a coat drop on top of the one she's wearing.

"Here. You can wear it."

"Hey! No, I-I can't wear this. I already have a coat on. What are you-", she was interrupted by Isogai gesturing at another coat he was wearing. "Oh. Thanks." The girl couldn't help but to nuzzle in at the warmth of the coat he gave her. She could feel the heat radiating off of his coat.

"Your welcome," Isogai said. They both walked on the pavement in silence. There were barely any cars on the streets. "So. Where are we headed?"

"I'm not too sure myself."

"Oh. Well then, how about we go for some drinks?" The girl turned to Isogai and made a 'are you kidding me?' face.

"You work at a pub. Aren't drinks a daily thing for you?"

"Well yeah... but-"

"No buts. No drinks."

Wow. This girl really didn't know how to read the ambience. He was trying to be a gentleman. Is that so wrong?

"Oh! I know! Let's go to a club!" said the girl with an excited smile.

"Ah sorry but I'm not into that kind of thing."

"What? Oh no! No no no no no no. Not that kind (strip) of club. Like a party music club. It's fun. We get to dance while raving to house music." It does sound fun, Isogai thought. "You in?" He had a moment to think it through. It almost seemed like forever to the both of them.

"Sure. It sounds pretty fun." The girl screeched with excitement and took Isogai's arm and led him onward.

"Perfect! I know the greatest spot. But first, we gotta find a taxi."

She led them to the closest taxi stand. The taxi came in a few minutes later, and both of them got into the vehicle. "Where to?"

"Take us to Exotic Rave please."

"Sure thing, pretty," said the taxi driver. The girl chuckled.

The ride took about 6 minutes. The ride was also very quiet for the two of them. Both of them looked out the cold, foggy window of the taxi. At one point, Isogai would look to the girl's direction. Observing the way she was looking out the window, with one of her elbows on top of the leather part of the taxi door.

Suddenly, the vehicle came to a stop.

"Alright. We're here," the taxi driver spoke up.

"Thank you," said the girl. She reached out for some money from her coat pocket. "Here, take thi-"

"It's alright. I've got this." She felt a hand on her arm. She was interrupted by Isogai, who was already paying the taxi driver. "Go. I'll meet you outside." She nodded and exited the taxi.

"That's a fine woman you have there," said the driver while handing Isogai his change.

"Ah no, it's not like that. We're just friends."

"Treasure her." Isogai gave him a confused look. "Most girls expect their guys to pay for their ride in taxis. She didn't." Ah. That makes sense.

"Yeah. I guess you're right. Thank you for the ride," said Isogai politely.

"Whatever you do, don't do anything stupid," the driver added as Isogai was about to exit the vehicle.

"I won't." With that, he slammed the taxi door shut and walked towards the girl. She was standing there. Her neck wasn't visible anymore. It seemed that she was too cold that she had to bring the neck of the coat to the bottom of her chin. He chuckled. How cute.

"Thank you. For paying." At that, Isogai smiled.

"Your welcome." He didn't realize but they were standing in front of an alleyway in between a street hotel and a closed cafe.

"The club is in there," said the girl while pointing at the dark alleyway. Isogai nodded and started walking at the pointed direction. It was dark. And there was only one dim light.

The both of them walked toward the club door. Isogai was surprised. There were people waiting to get in.

"ID's please," asked the security guard to a woman.

"Here you go," said the woman. The man nodded and gestured her to go in.

After seconds of walking, Isogai and his newly-made friend arrived at the line of the club. "Kid? What are you doing here?" Isogai turned to see that the security guard was staring at his friend. He was talking to her? No, more like asking her something.

"Favian? Is that you?" she asked with a big smile on her face.

"Yeah Kid! It's me!" The girl dashed into the older man's arms. "Oh look how much you've grown. It's been a while, hasn't it?" the man said while ruffling her hair.

"Hell yeah its been a while. I missed you so much," the girl said while nuzzling in the man's chest. Isogai stood there, watching the commotion along with the people in the line.

"What are you doing here Kid?"

"I'm here to go in the club, Big Guy," said the girl while patting 'Big Guy's shoulder.

"Does your mom know? I don't want her to worry about where you went."

"Mom and I don't talk anymore. So I don't bother telling her anything." The man sighed.

"So, you came here alone?"

"Ah! No actually. I'm here with my friend." She turned around to look for Isogai. There he was. By the line of people wanting to go inside the club. She marched towards him, grabbed his arm and retreated back to her old acquaintance. "Favian. This is my friend."

"Uh pleasure to meet you, Sir. My name is Isogai Yuuma," said Isogai while bowing.

"Likewise, boy. I'm Favian. If there is one important man in Miss' life, that would have to be me," Favian said while eyeing Isogai intently. Isogai flinched. The girl chuckled.

"Okay okay, Big Guy. Could you let us in now?"

"Sure thing Milady. You're lucky that my shift is tonight. Otherwise, you'd have to wait in line like the rest of them do."

"Haha alright. Thanks Favian." She turned to Isogai, "Come on. Let's go inside. If we stay here longer, Favian might even go overboard with the ''I'm the only important person in Milady's life'' ramble." The last part she mumbled. But it was loud enough for Isogai to hear it. He smiled.

"Alright. Let's go."
