Last night, Haku had suddenly been stalked by a strange being. Who was the being that followed her? What do they want? Well…you probably know who the guy is, but let's keeping going, just for the heck of it.
------
Man…hangovers suck.
Such were the thoughts of Haku Yowane as she woke up tucked safely in her futon that morning. Sitting up, she saw with a smile as the sky was raining down its brilliant light down on her room. The clock ticked as it reached seven thirty, and she sighed with relief: she still has time to get into her uniform and get to her job without her boss blowing up on her.
OK, OK…all I need to remember is NOT to think…
Unfortunately, the door rang out when Haku opened her door, thus making her stall for a few seconds to shake it off. She stumbled off to her closet and drew it back, staring face-to-face at the evil looking outfit that stared back at her. It was so frilly and pink and frilly and…short. Why in the world would she agree to wear such a thing?!
Oh, right. It's because she didn't have another awesome high paying job waiting in the side just for her to come along and pay her rent.
She slowly cursed out her luck as she forced herself to slide on the outfit. It was so TIGHT and ugly on her. And what's worse is that it was so PINK. PINK!! Why pink?! Why couldn't the theme be purple or blue or even white? She liked white. A hell lot more than she liked pink. She stared at herself in the mirror for a few minutes before slowly complaining and heading out the door.
"Oh, come on, Haku. It doesn't look that bad."

"You're late, Haku!"
"Late? What the heck are you talking about?" Haku gawked. "I'm on time!"
"Ignorance is unfitting, Haku. It's either early or late!" Her boss growled. "Now get to work!"
She grumbled as she went on to do her job. Unlike her boss, the people that she was serving were actually nice and generous, and offer better tips than her own paycheck. But it's not like she was counting. It was after she finished six tables at the same time that she saw Gumi walk toward her with a smile on her face. Unlike Haku, she actually looked nice in pink.
"It's your lunch break, Haku." She informed. "You didn't know that?"
"No…" Haku looked confused. "Is it noon already? Wow, I didn't know that!"
"You've just been working too hard, that's all." She answered. "You really need a break."
"I just need a breakthrough." She replied.
She walked outside of the small restaurant and sank into one of the outside chairs, not bothering to think about when this would end and she would have to go back onto her shift. People were still coming in and out, but they were everyone else's business now. It's time for her to relax.
"Hey. Is this seat taken?"
She looked up and almost hiccupped the spit in her mouth. Standing right over her being, in front of her very eyes, was the boy that she saw earlier. The Kaito lookalike. He looked a little tired, like he's been walking around the city for the entire night, and yet he seemed happy and full of energy. Or maybe it was the hangover talking. But was she still having one?
"No. It's free. I'm…just on a break." She answered.
"Well, that's good. The place seems a little too crowded for my tastes." He sat down. "By the way, what's your name? I feel like I've met you before."
"I'm pretty sure I haven't met you before. And if you're curious, my name is Haku Yowane. May I have the pleasure of knowing yours?"
"I'll…think about it." He answered.
"So…what? I'm referring to you as 'he', now?"
"Sure."
"OK…" Haku stared at the man in front of her. "You do look like someone that I know, though."
"Really? Who?"
"A singer. Does the name Kaito ring any bells?"
"Kaito? Um…a few, actually."
"So, can I call you that?"
"I don't think it's fair for you to refer to me as a celebrity, huh?" He smiled.
"So, what? You don't have a name?"
"The situation is…a little complicated. You probably wouldn't believe me even if I told you straight out."
"Uh…is it family problems?"
"I wish."
"So it's relationship problems?"
"I wish it could be that too, but mostly on the family problems."
"Now you're confusing me."
"You're confused? You should be looking at me." He turned to her with a smile on his face. "By the way, isn't your shift over? Shouldn't you be serving me something?"
"No. I'm pretty sure that my shift isn't over." Haku blinked. "Besides, you didn't even order anything."
"Nah, I'm not that hungry."
"Why would you not be hungry and still come to a restaurant?"
"It's not that I'm not hungry." He looked down. "It's that I can't."
"You…can't…get hungry." She concluded.
"Hey, Haku!" Her boss called to her. "Get over here! Your shift just ended and we need you up on your feet stat!"
Haku blinked as she turned to her watch, shocked that her lunch break had indeed ended. She turned to the young man to say her goodbyes, only to see that he had mysteriously vanished, just like before. Confused, she shook her head and walked back to her job.

Yeah, this is the second chapter. For this story, I decided to go segment by segment instead of episode by episode. Don't worry, I'll get the other stories of mine done before you know it! I sure hope you know who the guy is, though.
