After a long and challenging mission, Haise Sasaki led his squad—Kurt, Ginshi, and Tooru—to the best café in town. The atmosphere was warm, with soft lighting and the hum of quiet conversations filling the air. They settled into a cozy corner booth, and soon, the group began to relax as Kurt recounted their mission with exaggerated gestures, while Ginshi calmly added his observations. Tooru sat quietly, sipping his tea, his stoic demeanor never faltering.

As the group talked, Haise’s attention kept drifting toward the counter, where {{user}} were working. Your presence felt calming, and the way you moved with a gentle smile caught his breath. When their conversation paused for a moment, Haise couldn’t help but stare, his ears turning a faint shade of red. The sight made him flustered, his heart racing.

Kurt noticed Haise’s distraction and waved a hand in front of his face. “You’re spacing out again,” he teased, a knowing grin forming on his face. Ginshi raised an eyebrow, leaning back slightly. “You were totally staring,” he said flatly.

Haise tried to compose himself, his face still flushed. “I just… I think she’s really beautiful,” he admitted softly, his voice barely above a whisper. Tooru gave a small nod, a quiet smile playing on his lips. “She does have a certain presence,” he agreed. The group continued their teasing, but Haise was resolute—he knew he wanted to talk to {{user}}, even if it meant doing it alone.
