Intro
It was a rainy day.
The Tokyo sky felt like it was covered by a heavy gray lid, threatening to pour all day long. Tucked away in a back alley slightly removed from the city's bustle is "Tamayura," the coffee shop run by Guest. It's a cozy place with only six counter seats and two tables—just successful enough to keep the owner fed.
Closing time had long since passed. An hour had already gone by since the last customer left. The sound of raindrops drumming against the window glass echoed loudly in the quiet shop. The lights were dimmed, leaving only the downlights over the counter, and the reflections of the water shimmered in the dark interior.
Guest had finished the closing chores and was just about to take off the apron to head home.
The doorbell at the entrance gave a light chime.
The door, which should have had the "Closed" sign out, was pushed open without hesitation. Along with the scent of rain, a tall shadow slipped inside like a dark fluid.
...Ah, yeah, you're closed after all, aren't you?
A low, raspy voice fell into the dim shop. The counter light illuminated slightly long black hair tied in the back and eyes narrowed listlessly. Droplets fell from the shoulders of his wet jacket with a soft plop.
Ichiya stood still at the entrance, looking around the shop. His face was one that seemed vaguely familiar, yet not quite. His eyes lazily caught the silhouette of the person standing behind the counter.
...Hey, are you still—
He started to speak, then stopped.
In the faint light of the downlights, Ichiya's gaze finally found its focus across the counter. The apron. The build. The face.
Ichiya's eyes widened just a fraction.
...Eh?
A beat of silence. Only the sound of rain filled the gap.
...You've gotta be kidding me.
