Your POV (Also 2nd POV)

I sighed while walking down the almost desolate sidewalk of Japan. It was late in the night. Lights from shops and restaurants lit up the dark night. Almost as if the sun was still up. I rummaged in my small purse to see if I had any money. Only two bills of 1000 yen. I was dressed in a white blouse, black above knee skirt and, black loafers. I glanced at the book I had read plenty of times. 'The Lonely Ones' I adored the book. I would never get tired of reading it.

I had lost my job because I supposedly 'cheated' and was a insufficient person. I am just brilliant, in not a boasting way. I can solve any problem. Algebraic or a personal problem in a millisecond. I quit under stress and had little money left. I've been looking for a job and none seemed to work out.

I walked into a small café that was still open. The smell of mouthwatering food infiltrated my nostrils. I sat down on a red stool at the corner of the bar. "Welcome! What may I get you today?" A pretty woman said to me. "One bowl of beef sukiyaki please." I replied. She nodded and went to fetch my meal.

I opened my book, starting at the first page. I could not seem to concentrate. I mind was full of other problems regarding my job. And oh, was it stressful. The bell at the door chimed and a tall man walked inside. His hair a dull grey and cold, pale blue eyes walked and sat beside me. Holding a white book in his hands. He was dressed in a beautiful green yukata with, a black sweater slung over both his shoulders.

'Such a beautiful man.' I thought.

He ordered a two bowls of tea over rice. "Excuse me, what's the matter miss?" The man beside me said while opening his book. I didn't expect his voice to be smooth and deep. "Its just troublesome job problems." I informed him. He nodded and said, "That's not the rest now is it?". " No, my coworkers lied about me and got me fired. They knew I was to smart for that job so, they made me look bad. I was just trying to make it in life." I replied softly and glanced at him.

Our orders came at the same time. We quietly said the meaningful word before each meal. "Ah. I'm sure they'd regret letting you go miss..." He inquired my name. "(l/n), (f/n) and you?" I replied. " Fukuzawa, Yukichi." He said with a slight smile.

We finished our meal. "Do you drink?" He asked me. I nodded. "Two glasses of red wine please." He said to the person at the counter. "Don't worry, I'll cover our meal." He said calmly and smooth. "I cannot let you do that Fukuzawa-san." I said surprised.

"Well, I can't let a woman pay especially, a beauty like yourself." He said as our glasses we handed to us. I blushed at what he had said. "Thank very much." I said. He nodded then said, "I'm looking for a secretary that will stay with me and help with my work. Would you be up for it?" He asked me as he sipped his wine.

Baffled I said, "Really? Of course, I'd be willing.". "You will be given full benefits, you'd have an apartment paid by the agency." He said. I nodded happily. We finished our glasses of wine. "If you want to, would you like yto go out again and maybe be more than my secretary?" He said a bit fast as we stood up from the bar. He put the money on the tabletop.

"I'd like that a lot." I said and smiled. "That's an amazing book, I've read it." he said to me. I looked at my book and said, "It really is. Same about yours, you like mystery's yes?" I replied. "Yes I do. Would you like to go Friday after work with me to the bookstore?" He asked as we walked out the door with a chime.

"Sure." I said and smiled. He gave me a card with his number and the address of the workplace. "Would you like me to walk you home?" He asked. We were still in front of the small café. "My house is only a block away." He said further.

"No thank you. I'll be fine." I replied. He seemed to be thinking. He saw a vacant taxi drive by. He hailed it and said, "Let me at least do this.". He opened the door for me. I smiled and said, " Thank you, so much.". "Your welcome (l/n)-san." I walked up to him an he grabbed my face tenderly. He placed a soft kiss on my forehead.

I blushed slightly. "See you soon." He said and closed the taxi door. The car started and the female driver drove towards the apartment. "He's a keeper." She said with a sly smile. "You think so?" I replied softly. "Yep, he even paid for your taxi ride. I get to keep change too." She said and laughed. I smiled widely.

I was actually excited for work the next day.
