RISE OF CHIMERA: The Beginning Of This Story
~REFRESHING MIND~
The next day ....
The bells in a coffee shop sound, indicating the arrival of a customer to taste the taste of the coffee offered.
“Welcome. Ke-Kenichi ..”
“Yo, Yoki.”
“Why can you be here?”
“What kind of question is.”
Kenichi smiled as he said it, followed by both hands held on either side of his waist, which was a joke to him.
“Well I came here because I want to drink coffee.”
“Bu-not that,” scratched his head and paused his words, “Which I mean, how do you know that I work here?”
“Heee, how about we talk about this after I order coffee?”
“Good.”
Kenichi sits at a table by the window, followed by Yoki handing over the menu to Kenichi. It didn't take long for Kenichi to choose, he seemed to already know what he was going to order.
Orders are handed over and delivered to Kenichi. Taking the coffee tucked neatly in a white cup full of carvings, Kenichi was about to taste the taste of the coffee he ordered.
“That's great.”
“Surely this comes from coffee beans and flavor options.”
“That's our motto.”
Suddenly a father appeared out of nowhere. It seemed like Yoki's speech became a bell for him to appear, almost automatically appearing unless he was sick and was in a distant place.
Well, if he could hear it from far away anyway, it was certain that Yoki suspected that his superior was a supernatural being.
Kenichi is a little surprised, but Yoki looks bored. The first time working here, Yoki was immediately shocked, but now it is not. Because it has become his daily food.
“Why him?”
Kenichi asked, sipping his coffee.
“Ahh no need to ask.”
“Nice job Yoki, go on like that let everyone know the taste of our created coffee.”
“Yes, yes, yes. It's up to you, Mr.”
Disappearing again and the atmosphere returned, Kenichi turned his gaze toward Yoki who was still holding the tray, about to return to guard.
“Do you have a minute?”
Kenichi asked with a hand that returned the cup to his mat. Not yet finished the coffee, only reduced by a quarter.
While Yoki first checked the condition of the shop, quiet turned out. Perhaps, Yoki had time to chat with Kenichi.
Sitting in his uniform, Yoki is ready to chat with Kenichi.
“First I want to answer your question first. I know you work here because ... I once watched you.”
The answer was accompanied by Kenichi's sharp gaze. That gaze can make others afraid when they hear the words and when they see the gaze. That was also true for Yoki, he was a little nervous. But try to calm down by putting the tray on the table.
“You mean?”
“Ahh, don't be afraid. I will not explain it further and will go straight to the heart of my arrival.”
Kenichi paused by continuing his drink. Indeed, in accordance with the conditions around the store, rain on a medium scale will certainly add to the pleasure of drinking warm coffee.
As soon as the cup of coffee was placed, Kenichi was ready to continue his speech.
“Wait a minute, is this related to yesterday's problem?”
Though, Kenichi had not yet uttered a word, but Yoki had already ambushed him. Moreover, the speech was wrong, described with a headband.
“No, I just want to show you a place.”
“You? You mean me and Gaia?”
“It is, who else.”
“Haaah if so, why not talk right in school?”
“Hehe, can't stand it.”
Kenichi scratched his cheeks while sipping his coffee again. While Yoki slammed himself into the sofa backrest with both hands folded on the chest, as well as the head that stared out the window on the right.
“Then, how do you tell Gaia? If today right, we do not know where he is and is doing what.”
“In his favorite bookstore.”
Looks like Kenichi's words were still ringing in Yoki's head. To the extent that, using that to describe the way Kenichi knew the customs of Gaia.
To Kenichi, he simply shrugged both his shoulders upwards with a smile displayed. As proud as he said earlier, imprinted on Yoki's head.
“CIKH, yes I have asked permission first with superiors.”
“Oh well Yoki, this coffee is indeed made from coffee beans and flavor options.”
“That's our motto.”
When the same person suddenly appears, Kenichi immediately chuckles. It seems like the motto he made into a toy for his pleasure. But unlike Yoki, he only sighed when he saw the behavior of his friend.
While standing up, Yoki did not forget to take Kenichi's depleted cup. He puts it in a tray and takes it away from Kenichi's desk.
Kenichi also stood up and walked out to wait for Yoki. After permission is granted, Yoki takes off his uniform and leaves with Kenichi.
Arriving at the bookstore, Yoki and Kenichi pause to see a bookstore that is arguably not big.
Mediocre, but still carrying out its purpose is to provide books to buy and read.
“Haaah, pretty bad deket anyway from the coffee shop.”
Yoki argues while continuing the steps to enter the store. Arriving inside, it only took a moment to find Gaia. One reason is the size of this bookstore.
“Gaia.”
“You two, why know I'm here?”
“Ahh, just a coincidence. Anyway, I don't know if Kenichi wants to meet the two of us.”
“Ehmm alright, I want to pay for this book first.”
Gaia made her payment first, then went out of the bookstore with the two of them. In the bookstore, there are several tables for customers who want to read books that have been purchased. Of course the three of them did not want to waste that facility.
“True problems ...”
“Akhhh .…”
Gaia immediately held onto her head with both hands. He looked down with sharp glaring eyes.
Trauma again attacked him, the memory he had forgotten, back ringing. Though, Kenichi's point is not that.
“Sorry Gaia, I didn't mean ..”
Kenichi's speech was immediately cut off by Gaia's one hand.
“No, it's okay.”
Gaia tried to raise her head back.
“Only, somehow my head hurts so much when I remember it.”
“Hah! It hurt so much, when he remembered those memories. What the hell is going on? Normally it wouldn't be like this, is there something wrong with Gaia? Or... Does he have a lot of information about that? Or maybe, ahh already. Why am I a mood destroyer?”
Kenichi asked in a mutter. He was completely confused, but it was not shown in physical form. Only the mind in the subconscious.
As for Gaia, it instantly neutralized her expression. He tried to divert the atmosphere, by lifting the book in his right hand and putting it on the table.
“This book the story is really very sad.”
For Yoki who is a gamer anyway will not understand, but not for Kenichi. When offered the book, Kenichi immediately took the book and looked at the book briefly.
He was familiar with this book, maybe had read it or even had it.
“Mister's Book N.”
“Iya, how do you know?”
“Hehe I've read it to the end. These three best friends are so great. Even when they are separated, they still try to strengthen each other through very strong feelings for each other. But unfortunately, only one of them remains.”
“Eee, Kenichi ... why did you tell the end? I haven't read.”
Kenichi just laughed a little, scratching his head that does not itch. While Gaia was weaving her lips, furious at Kenichi's reaction, she was still cute according to Yoki.
For Yoki, of course he was confused, reading a single novel never. Finally, just be a spectator.
“Oh well, I'm just going to disorientate our conversation. So what reason did you meet me?”
This question that Yoki had been waiting for, now he became interested. His body was pushed forward and his eyes looked at Kenichi who was on the right side.
“Ehmmm so gini .…”
Kenichi relaxed the position of the body on the back of the chair again. Let the two friends who are still sitting with their backs upright.
“Because you've become my friends, I want to show you something. Well, itung-itung as a tranquilizer from the events that do not wear it. Besides, I want to further strengthen our friendship with this event.”
They both feel attracted by Kenichi's offer. It was seen from an enthusiastic face on his plan.
