[Star 1] Wishes [Hiroto; alice nine.]

Sitting there in the café, you stared at the short, squirrely boy at the table eight feet away from yours. You’ve never talked to him. You’ve never gotten into a three foot range near him. You’ve never seen him look your way. You’ve only seen him interact with his friends and live his life. You weren’t sure who he was but he looked like a nice and cute guy. You admired him from afar and you’ve never dropped a hint telling him that you liked him. You have come to this café every morning for 6 months just to look at him. It might sound like stalking but you never followed him home or kept tabs on him or anything like that. You only admired.

I sighed while running my fingers through my hair. The waiter had asked me what I wanted for breakfast this fine morning. I merely replied, ‘the usual’. I felt simply pathetic for doing this every morning. I could only fantasize about being held in his arms or being given sweet kisses on my forehead by him. But it absolutely killed my heart remembering that he didn’t even know I existed. So I tried not to think about it. The waiter came back and handed me my usual breakfast: a cinnamon roll with a glass of apple juice. I sat there tearing the cinnamon roll into smaller pieces and sticking them into my mouth. Every now and again I would look up and admire his appearance. Today he was alone. I took a sip of my apple juice and continued with finishing my breakfast for the next 30 minutes. I saw the man get up and leave after finishing his breakfast. I sighed once more before cleaning up and heading off to work.

“Ohayou gozaimasu, Karin-chan!” Mayuki yelled out to me while waving. Mayuki was my best friend. She was also my roommate. We shared an apartment together. But she never came with me to the café because she disliked eating breakfast. But starting tomorrow, she wants to start eating in the mornings due to the fact that she’s always tired. She thinks that eating will keep her awake. “Did you see him today? Anything happen?” She said this more quietly as I got closer to her.

“Yeah I saw him. No nothing happened. Just the same thing everyday…” I sighed while refilling the jars of candy. Mayuki and I worked in a candy shop. But we also sold bubble tea and other drinks. We wore different lolita dresses every day. Or on some occasions, we had to dress up in princess outfits, also known as Hime Gyaru. All these pretty outfits were merely for publicity. I didn’t really mind dressing up every day though. It felt nice. It made me feel luxurious with all the fancy clothing. “Ne Mayuki-chan, are we still going to eat at that new restaurant tonight?” I asked while filling up the rest of the jars.

“Of course we are going, silly!” She giggled in her soft and baby-like voice. “That’s what we’ve been planning on all week!” She leaned against the counter. Candy shops weren’t that busy in the morning. But a few kids come in and buy candy before school or a few adults come in to purchase a drink before heading out to their own jobs. There was a short silence. “You’ve never told me but, what does that guy look like anyways?”

“Huh? Oh.” I had to come up with words to describe him. “Well, his hair is kind of long and the color always changes. His eyes are big and his lips are nice and pouty. He wears makeup. He is visual kei and the way he dresses is fantastic. He’s about 6 inches taller than me. His clothes are always designer and so exquisite looking!” When I described him, I could picture his perfect presence in my head.

“AHHH, KARIN-CHAN!” Mayuki squealed and put her hands up to her mouth in a surprised way. “You’re drooling!” Mayuki got a few napkins and shoved them into my hand. I squealed as well and wiped my mouth. “Is he really THAT good looking?! You usually never drool over guys!” Mayuki had a smile on her face.

“Ahh haha.” If this were anime, it would be a sweat drop moment. I rubbed the back of my neck. “Did you make reservations yet, Mayuki-chan?” I asked, trying to change the subject. This was a rather embarrassing moment for me.

“Mmmhmm.” She hummed. “I made them this morning when I got here before I forgot. I always forget things!” She frowned. She was like a little kid, always forgetting.

“Okay. Good job!” I smiled at her before we got back to work.
