Hello and thank you for continuing to read this story. Im going to keep this short so, please enjoy and leave a review as always.
`Things had been off for Mr. Improvement. The winds had became harsher without it being fall. Even if it were to be Autumn, the winds would never make him feel so cold, so depressed, and lastly, empty. ...The beauty to of seen the wind dance with colorful leaves blinded him to of seen the true nature of that element. ...Pretty faces aren't always nice.
She made me stop doing what I've loved. I even went so low as to touch one of this world's poison; hoping that even the tiniest of this aching pain to of left me, but it wouldn't. In time I would've just forgotten who I was. I wouldn't even bother to remember the elegant man I once was. All that mattered to me was that painfully cold bottle of "Gray Goose Vodka," I wanted to just throw it onto the floor and watch it shatter into pieces.
It took not only took for the Blue-Robin to keep telling him that what he's been doing was terribly wrong; but it also took Mr. Improvement to look in the mirror to see what he have become. ... All because she broke him.
After seeing that one pitiful sight of my reflection had made my stomach churn. I felt uneasy. It was that time that I knew I needed to awake from my nightmares.
The scissors upon the floor was as much certification as I needed to cut away the depression, the horrid past, my sorrow, and the pain. Strings after strings of nightmares fell onto the floor as snipped away.
My blue friend was shocked to of seen something so new out of me; but I knew he was happy for me behind that scared face. It made me want to laugh once I saw the Robin make such a distorted face. While he was busy trying to calm himself down, I couldn't help but notice a neko hide behind him.
It's body stiffened once it noticed how I was paying attention to it, but it remained to silently watch me.
This neko was quite shy. A matter of fact, very timid. Even so, it was a very cute creäture I had laid eyes upon. Looking at it reminded me of Spring.
It may be Winter, but if anyone were to look at the Neko, they'll surely feel the season change like how I did.´
My eyes wandered over to the boy that happened to be staring at me. His body shook a bit before he hurriedly ran to the back-room. I didn't even know how long he's been looking over here, but he surely reacted like a cat once I caught him.
`He's quite the unique one. More shy than I thought.´ I then watched as Kaito walk over to my table with a pen and notebook.
"I need some idea's to improve this place. Care to help, `Mr. Improvement' ." The bluenette clicked his tongue as he tilted his head to the right. I hid a chuckle from that sudden action, but I nodded my head and complied. "Well to be honest; business is going down to the drain at the moment. I'm just not getting as much customers as I use to. May be it's something I'm not doing right, or there's not enough women cause even I have to admit that mostly mens hang out here. Shit, I might as well just make this into a Gay bar." I chuckled slightly until I noticed how serious his face was once he said it.
Placing my hands off the keyboard, I crossed my arms against my chest and leaned back. "You're not doing anything wrong, you just need to add some things here and there. If you think about it, high rated bars tend to serve food as well as drinks." Kaito pondered for a moment at what I said. "Have you even considered serving food? having your customers eat will slow down their risk of getting drunk too fast, plus it might make them thirsty after they eat so they would technically will buy more alcohol." With that idea quickly coming alive, I took Kaito's note-pad and began to calculate the profit he might make.
As I was busy trying to figure out what type of food that is elegant yet cheap, Yuma silently came up to Kaito and just stood there.
"I forgot how smart you could actually be when you're not wasted. How could I've forgotten that serving food is the main key towards running a bar; that was the main thing that every bar should have other than drinks- . What's this?" Yuma had handed him a folded up note while smiling softly.
The cat-like boy took a step back as he tried to explain. "Well, I arranged some ideas for different events this bar could have each day. Monday could be Half-off day because everyone hates Mondays. So why not give them a break by cheapening the prices of the drinks that night. Tuesday can be karaoke night. karaoke could bring young groups of people's such as early college students. A-As for Wednesday, it could be ho-... homo...sexual night i-if that's okay with you." A faint blush spreaded across his cheeks as he looked down. "Th-thursday could be Sports night. It could really grab the general sport fans to come here. ...lastly for Friday, it could be clubbing night. We can try to rearrange the chairs and tables in the bar to create a dance floor in the middle if it's possible." I chuckled lowly to myself from the sound of nervousness trembling in his voice. It was quite adorable.
"That really isn't a bad idea, Yuma. A matter of fact, that is exactly what this place need to be rated high. I can chip in to help with the rearrangements and the food to be served here; but Kaito will need more employees such as cooks and bartenders. One to two waiters/ waitresses will do just about fine. We can also change the sign out front to be a bit more noticable. Attracting different crowds of people can be a real booster. Especially people who are homo." I rested my head on my hand as I stared up at the kid. He looked back down at me for a quick second and turned his head elsewhere.
We both snapped our heads towards Kaito as we heard him scoot back. "It's official then. This bar is going to have a Grand Re-Opening with these new ideas. Just thinking about already has me imagining of how heavy my pockets will be!" The blunette clapped his hands together and stepped aside away from the table. "If you will excuse me, I'll be calling my friend and see if her and her colleagues can cook here."
Within a minute, he was gone into the back-room leaving me and the nervous neko here.
The tension was quite uncomfortable. A bit too quite then I expected it to be, but being the social person I am, I tried to break the silence by small talking.
"How are you liking this place so far?" I gave a slight smile up to the kid. All he did in response was make a faint squeak sound and scurried off. "Okay?..." I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion, but quickly had shaken it off.
Ah yes, a strange neko he is; but he is still an interesting, divine creäture. I ponder as to why he is so timid...so fragile... but somewhere within him I see confidence.
