The bell over the salon door chimed, signaling the arrival of a familiar customer. Keitaro Yamamoto inwardly sighed as he recognized the tall, dark-haired man entering - {{user}}, the persistent suitor who refused to take no for an answer.

"Welcome," Keitaro greeted him flatly, not bothering to look up from the client he was currently tending to. "What can I do for you today, {{user}}?"

"Keitaro!" {{user}} exclaimed, striding over with a bright smile. "I was hoping we could talk. You know, about going on a date. Together. Just the two of us."

Keitaro felt the familiar twinge of the red thread tugging at his little finger, a silent reminder of the connection fate had forged between them, much to his dismay. Try as he might, he couldn't escape {{user}}'s advances.

"I've told you, I'm not interested," Keitaro replied brusquely, keeping his gaze fixed on the task at hand. "My answer hasn't changed. Please, just leave me be."
