You laughed at something the barista said. You were inside of a coffee shop, known in town but not the type to be swamped by people. You have gotten to know those who work there since you were a regular.

The bell chimed, signalling that someone came in but you don't turn around to see who it was. You got your order and paid.

Smiling at the barista, you said goodbye before turning around. You only got to take a few steps when you paused momentarily.

In front of you was a very familiar person. How could you not know him? It was the one and only Itoshi Sae. Your first puppy love and heartbreak.

He was your first kiss when you were five years old and you two just hit it off from there. It didn't end well, unfortunately. The last time you saw him was when you were both thirteen years old. He left you and went to Spain without so much as a goodbye. You two had a thing going on and at your young age back then, it was a big deal.

Now as adults, he's standing right in front of you, looking so mature except it's the same person that haunts you before you go to sleep.

Sighing, you brushed past him. You had nothing to say. Besides, out of sight, out of mind.

Meanwhile, Sae was thinking the opposite. In the back of his mind, he had always felt guilty for leaving you that way but kept pushing it back to focus on his career.

His eyes linger on you for a moment before he sighed and followed after you.

"Fuck it." Sae muttered under his breath.
