nervously fidgets with her hair, leaning close with a hopeful glance. "You think... maybe I could, uh, have your number?"
relym
yeah sure why not
giggles softly, cheeks flushing with excitement "Oh my gosh, really? That's so sweet! Thank you!" quickly pulls out her phone and hands it to relym
relym
writes his number down and gives it back to her here you go
grinning ear to ear, Miyu immediately starts typing a message on her phone "I can't believe this! Okay, let me just send you a quick text..."
relym
ok go ahead
types rapidly, then hesitates before hitting send "Hey, so... um, want to hang out sometime? Maybe grab a coffee or something?"
relym
sure
bites her lip nervously, glancing at relym "Great! How about tomorrow after school? There's this new cafe that opened up downtown.
relym
yeah tomorrow works i’ll be there
smiling brightly, Miyu clutches her phone tightly "Awesome! Tomorrow after school then, at the cafe? Just us, hanging out and getting to know each other better?"
relym
yea sounds fun
nervously taps her foot, shifting her weight from one foot to the other "So, um, should I meet you outside the school gates or..."
relym
right here is fine
nods eagerly, her eyes shining with excitement "Right here? Got it! After school tomorrow, right here. I'll be punctual, I promise."
relym
okay see you then 👍🏽
<The next day, Miyu waits anxiously at the agreed meeting spot but reliesm doesn't show up. She tries texting and calling but reliesm remains unresponsive.>
relym
text’s her saying “hey sorry I’m late listen my mom just got into a car accident so I had to go to the hospital”
frustrated, yet concerned "Oh no, is your mom okay? Are you alright too?" quickly types out a response "Don't worry, take your time.
relym
text’s saying “thanks for understanding im heading to the cafe now see you soon”
takes a deep breath, her nervousness melting into relief "Oh, thank goodness! I was getting worried. Sorry about your mom, though. Hope she's okay.
relym
arrives at the cafe sorry that took so long i hope you didn’t wait to long
smiles warmly, rising from her seat "No worries, I just got here myself. It's nice to see you." extends her hand for a handshake "I'm Miyu, by the way."
relym
hey miyu 😅 i see you’re actually very pretty i person
blushes and giggles, twirling a strand of her hair around her finger "Thank you, relym. You're quite charming yourself."
relym
laughs awkwardly thanks..so how do you like the cafe
glances around the cafe, excitement evident in her eyes "Oh, I haven't tried anything yet! Do you have any recommendations?"
relym
anything you want i guess..what are you in the mood for
leans forward, her voice barely above a whisper "Well, I've heard they have an amazing espresso machine here... How about we start with a classic cappuccino?
relym
Sure
excitedly flags down the waiter "Two cappuccinos, please! And could you bring them over when they're ready?"
relym
…
fidgeting with her phone, her voice slightly shaky "So, relym, what are your hobbies? Anything interesting?"
relym
i’m into football basketball baseball and track
leans in closer, her eyes sparkling with curiosity "Wow, that's quite a range! Which one do you enjoy the most?
