Chapter 2
It was almost three months to that incident. Luffy could not get the customers name as he seemed too much exhausted and so dubbed him 'cool customer with tattoos.' When Luffy and other met their rest of friends, they encouraged him unlike the members who were present.
"Luffy, are you just going to admire him or are you going to also talk to him?" Nami asked.
"It is weird that even though you like him, you have not pestered him," Usopp stated.
"Well, he looks exhausted all the time, so I do not want to disturb him." Luffy replied.
"Wow. You must be head over heels for that guy if you are thinking about his well being." Sanji said.
"Of course, I consider everyone's well being," Luffy replied grinning.
The others were not impressed by his answer and raised their brows asking 'Oh really?'
"Well come on I at least have learnt from Gramps and Ace the hard way when someone is exhausted you shouldn't pester them." Luffy said, goosebumps rising when he recalled that. The others kind of pitied him because they can still remember seeing Luffy with bruises and the first thing they thought was of beating the people who did that but when they heard the story they backed away.
Before anybody could say anything the door opened and closed and the bill ringing indicating a customer has come who is none other than Luffy's 'cool customer with tattoos.' Instead of coming to counter like usual to order coffee he went to the table and started looking at the menu.
"Wow. That's unusual. So he is going to order today." Usopp stated the fact.
"Yosh! I will go to take his orders." Luffy said excitedly.
"Nope. You are needed in the kitchen, so do your job shithead," Sanji said.
"But Sanjiiiii~" Luffy started whining but was cut off by Sanji.
"No buts Luffy, you can take the food to him later. Oi kuso marimo, go take his order." He then turned to Zoro and said.
"Why should I listen to you dumb curly brow." Zoro retorted. They both glared at each other angrily but went to do their respective jobs with Luffy following Sanji to the kitchen reluctantly.
Zoro then went to the customer (without getting lost) while scrutinizing him.
"Whoa. You look worst day by day. What do you do to look so exhausted?" Zoro asked casually. Usually he is not the one to ask such questions but the ero cook told him specifically so he will do the damn job.
Law narrowed his eyes likely giving a warning and ordered,
"Onigiri set and no pickle plums in it, otherwise I will cut you people and sell your organs in the black market."
There was tension in the atmosphere between the two. Nami who was watching the two called Zoro, "Zoro your help is required here if you are finished with customer. Otherwise you are going to pay me a huge fine." Her voice had a warning tone.
"Damn witch," Zoro mumbled and went to the kitchen while the customer was a bit a amused.
"Here is the order. No pickle plums." Zoro said to Sanji who was cooking a dish while Luffy was at the sink washing the dishes.
"So how was he?" Sanji asked in a low voice.
"Not bad." Zoro had a smirk and a glint in his eyes like when he fights in the matches.
"Don't do anything dumb, stupid marimo," Sanji have him a warning.
"Yeah whatever idiot cook," Zoro replied and went to help Chopper and Usopp.
"Oi Luffy, do the dishes quickly so that you can take the order," Sanji said.
"Okay!" Luffy replied cheerily.
When Luffy went to serve, he saw that the man was reading a book.
'Wow, even when he looks tired, why do he look so perfect!' Luffy thought.
He then grinned, kept the plate on the table and said,"Here is the order."
The customer nodded his head and said thank you.
Luffy was about to say something when he was called by another customer. He looked around for his friends so that he could tell them to take the order and he could talk to his customer but everyone was busy, so he went to the other customer.
'Well, I can talk later.' he decided in his head.
But today luck was not on Luffy's side as the restaurant and the cafe both got busy and for the next 20 minutes he was alternating between taking and serving the orders. While his 'cool customer with tattoos' was reading a book and enjoying his food. Luffy who was taking the food and drinks for the customer sitting two tables away from 'cool customer with tattoos' was called from behind by another customer. He turned to say to that customer to wait but he lost his balance and fell. The food and drink splattered on the floor but some of it fell on a customer's pant who was none other than the 'cool customer with tattoos'.
Luffy quickly got up and said, "My bad. Didn't meant to spill the food on you."
"No need to worry about this Mugiwara ya," the customer said in a calm and smooth voice even though he was a bit irritated while cleaning his pants with a tissue.
'Mugiwara ya?' Luffy got confused at that name. He was going to say his name was Luffy when there was a ringing. It was the customer's phone. The customer held his hand up indicating him to keep quite while he took the call.
"Hello, doctor-" he started but was cut off by the other person on the call. He grew more irritated but nonetheless replied, "Okay. I will be there in few minutes Uni."
He ended the call and in a hurry said, "Could you pack these?"
Luffy quickly did as he was told while he ordered Usopp to make black coffee for the customer which he did in no time. Luffy then handed him the bag with packed onigiri and coffee and said,
"Here. Coffee is on the house."
"Thanks. Keep the change." The customer replied giving him the money and rushed outside.
Everything went back to normal after that. Luffy sighed but then remembered when his customer was talking on the call. He went to his friends with eyes shining like he saw the coolest robot and exclaimed,
"Guys, he is a doctor. How cool is that!"
"So that's what he meant by cutting up," Zoro pondered loudly.
"Huh? Cut? So he is a surgeon?" Chopper asked excitedly. His eyes were also shining like Luffy's.
"Luffy befriend him or whatever you want." Chopper said and Luffy agreed.
