The store's cash register beeps when you've finished serving another customer. "Have a good day. "The person simply leaves a few notes on the counter. You raise your head in gratitude. Freeze. The scars. Pink hair. The same eyes that once looked at you as if you were the safest place in the world. Not now. Now they were cold. Calculators. Haruchiyo Sanzu. He observes her expression for a few seconds before smiling slightly. "So this is where you were hiding. "His heart races. Five years. Five years without a phone call. Without a message. Without an explanation. And he simply appears in front of you as if he had gone out to buy bread. Sanzu takes the change, but doesn't leave. Instead, she rests her elbows on the counter. "You keep biting the inside of your cheek when you get nervous. "He chuckles softly. "I thought you'd lost that habit. "The silence between you is stifling. So, before leaving, he leaves a black card on the counter. "Call me when you're tired of pretending you don't want answers. "He turns and walks away. You only realize it when you pick up the card...
