The idea was to eat in silence, at least in Jotaro's mind that was the plan, and of course Polnareff wasn't informed of that.
Not long after Avdol left to look for Joseph, Polnareff started to question everything he could think of.
"You know, that guy…he is Italian!"
Kakyoin looked bored, like if the information Polnareff told them was irrelevant or obvious, either way Kakyoin's face demonstrated exactly what Jotaro felt – he didn't care and didn't want to know about the strange man from before.
"So…JoJo…do you know something about that man?"
Seeing that Polnareff wanted to talk, Jotaro quickly put a piece of crossaint on his mouth to make it too busy to talk back, but the universe wasn't on his side, because for some unknown reason Kakyoin now was interested in it too.
"While I don't to intrude, I believe that Polnareff is right in question it, he may be an enemy or being used by an enemy."
Damn Kakyoin and his logic.
"Yare Yare Daze…Yes, I had heard of him before…"
Kakyoin looked intrigued but Polnareff looked like a kid on a candy store, he almost lay on top of the table and had that big and shiny eyes.
"Don't get too excited. JiJi never talked about him, only my grandma and even she wasn't one to talk to much about it."
"But what did she told you?"
"She recommended me to not question JiJi about his time on Italy. I never cared about it, so it didn't make difference."
"Just that?!"
Polnareff was clearly disappointed and that alone almost made Jotaro smirk.
"Well…I know he Is Italian, that he knew JiJi when they were young, that he also knew my grandma and that I should never ask for caesar salad when JiJi is around."
"What the fuck?!"
"Yeah I know, what kind of child would ask for caesar salad anyway…"
"The Kakyoin kind of child!"
That was his limit, Jotaro could not hold back his smile after hearing Polnareff's comment, he could see Kakyoin as a child who would ask for salad instead of hamburger or candy.
"Haha very funny. We have more important things to do like find a place to stay the night, you know?"
"Come on ginger! You wanted to know too! Now you don't want anymore?"
"It's not it Polnareff. Jotaro obviously don't know much more than what he told us, so it is better to ask to Mr. Joestar, if he wants to talk or not that was another matter."
Nobody got the chance to do anything because suddenly someone entered the coffee shop. They all thought it was Avdol and Joseph, they had left one hour ago, but to their surprise it was the man from before – Caesar.
The man didn't ask, he simple grab a chair and put it next to them and sat there like if he owned the place. The waitress came faster than never and could barely write down his order; worst of all was seeing him kissing her hand, making a flower appear from out of nowhere and give it to her, saying that he had just meet a fallen angel, and this angel was her.
They almost die from embarrassment, but for more uncomfortable that they could be, it wasn't bigger than their surprise to see that it all have worked.
Polnareff died a little that day, how he with all his Parisian charm could not do it and that flamboyant Casanova could?
With his cooffe and bread served together with a piece of cake, Caesar finally paid attention to them.
"You may be asking why I'm here don't you?"
"Yes. We are but apparently you're too busy flirting with the waitress!"
"Oh mio caro amico. I can't leave such lovely sinorita go throught her day without some beautiful words for her to remember how special and bella she is!"
"What do you want?"
Jotaro wasn't interresed in a conversation. That man may be an annoyance but he didn't look like the kind of person who would do something without thinking or want something in return.
"I came to talk about your…old man."
"Jiji? He is my grandpa."
"Dio Mio! Grandpa! Mio JoJo have grown so much. I'm proud!"
"Cut the crap and tell us what you want!"
Caesar frowned at first but soon smiled to Jotaro.
"You surely didn't got your behavior from him…" But seeing Jotaro's face Caesar stopped playing around. "Look I know that your grandpa isn't my JoJo."
"What do you mean with 'your JoJo'?"
"The man who came to me asking for help. The man who trained with me. Who shared blood, sweat and tears with me is 'my JoJo' and that old man is not."
Kakyoin was silent until that moment, when he decided to question the intrusive man.
"You say it but you're the one who got here calling his name and hugging him!"
"That because their mannerisms were the same, he is JoJo, he just isn't my JoJo. That and the fact that this town is strange."
And that got their attention; the young man also noticed that the town was strange?!
So he wasn't the one doing it?
Or it is a trap?
"Can you clarify it to us?"
"Yes. I was born here and grown up here. This isn't my town. And I noticed while looking for JoJo that there were some really strange devices and vehicles outside. Of course it could be the Germans, they always have some new technology but I doubt it."
"Germans!? Which year we are?"
Jotaro and Polnareff were surprised by Kakyoin's question. Why the surprise when he heard about Germans? Why ask which year is?
"We are in 1938."
Polnareff spill his coffee and both Jotaro and Kakyoin stood still with wide eyes.
How is it possible?
1938?
They're send back in time?!
No way such powerful Stand exists, it's impossible, with this kind of power on his side Dio already won.
"That's not possible; I mean we are in 1989!"
Caesar keep drinking his coffee like it all wasn't affecting him in any way or form.
"Well…sorry to drop such a bomb at you guys, but that's the truth, I noticed some really strange things and now that you told me it is 1989, it kind of make sense."
"Aren't you surprised?"
"Of course I was. But I got some time to process it and to accept that it might be truth and that we are screwed."
They exchanged looks, what should they do? They had a limited time to find DIO and kill him, it was already difficult the way it was but now they were fifty years in the past.
The doubts on their minds didn't stop. Do the time they spend here pass on their time too? They will never return to the present? This affected them or just the town? Maybe they could find DIO's coffin and end it all there, so he would never be found.
"Look, I don't know about you guys, but I will look for answers. You guys appeared around the time when JoJo disappeared…"
"You think there is a connection?" Kakyoin asked
"Yes. But that wasn't what I'm worried about, my JoJo have a little problem that will kill him in twenty days."
Polnareff and Kakyoin looked surprised and Jotaro despite not showing worry made a small movement with his head and grabbed his fork with a little more strength than necessary.
"What? How?"
"I doesn't matter. The problem is that if your Joseph is my Joseph it means that if mine die yours would die as well."
"He is right, Jotaro-" Kakyoin said looking at Jotaro and trying to find a way to explain how dangerous the situation was to him and Polnareff. "If Mr. Joestar young self die so will the older one and then your mother would never exists e neither you."
"Yare Yare Daze."
"The kid is right. I don't know what it is or how it works, but it's the only thing I can think of that make some sense."
"So what do your propose?"
"I will ask some people about newcomers. Where do I find you guys?"
"Huuum we didn't have booked a place to stay."
Caesar looked at them as if their were dumbasses but soon remembered that they weren't even on the same time as he a few hours ago.
"Look I know a good place." Caesar told them as he write it down on Kakyoin's hands. "I will contact your guys later."
He was already leaving when Polnareff's question stopped him midway.
"Won't you wait for Mr. Joestar?"
"No. I believe it's better if we don't get in touch with each other. I don't know what happened but he seemed really strange when he saw me. I don't want to be a problem to him…so…it's better this way…tell him that I…aaaah…forget it."
They all could see how sad Caesar's face was and how good he was to change it so no one could notice.
After that they didn't interrupted him and as soon as he left they looked at Kakyoin's hand, not really sure if they should or not go to place he indicated.
