The Introvert

Ch. 10

After making a mistake that resulted in him falling to the ground once again. (Y/n) crawled out from under the table but made sure to look around and make sure nobody was paying glancing in his direction. Once he was standing up he dusted himself off and fixed the sunglasses that he was using.

(Y/n): "I need to think first before acting. Making similar mistakes twice in the same week is something that should never happen."

??: Excuse me, sonny, but do these pens come in red? My niece took the last one I had and refuses to tell me what she did with it.

Startled by a voice when he thought the coast was clear (Y/n) reluctantly turns around. Luckily it was just the old man from the coffee shop he visited.

(Y/n): U-

Old man: I know what you're about to say so here is my answer. Mia managed to get me out of the shop by taking my keys and locking me out.

(Y/n): O-Okay, but that doesn't explain how you got here since you'd still need a ticket.

Old man: That's easy to answer too. Some love-struck numbskull gave Mia a ticket the other night but it doesn't end there. She told him that she'd be waiting in the front by that random bamboo planted by the door.

(Y/n): Oh, I think I know where this is going.

Old man: So I was waiting underneath it with an umbrella because of how sunny it is today. They couldn't see my face because of the umbrella.

(Y/n): They should have noticed even if they couldn't see your face. Your height is slightly different, body structure...

Old man: Sonny, sonny. You just confirmed to me how pure you are when it comes to lust. Your parents had the opportunity to teach you these things but it looks like your unofficial grandpa needs to explain how it works.

(Y/n): By the way, are you okay standing up. I'm not sure how long you plan on staying but it's probably not good for your bones or whatever doctors would say.

Old man: Ah, I don't care what some nerd in a white coat tells me. I'll continue to do what I want when I want and nobody will change my mind.

(Y/n): B-But didn't your mind change when you got locked out of your shop.

Old man: That's different. In that case, I pulled what people in the military call a tactical retreat. When it looks like you can't win leave and try again when the enemy is high on their ego from a victory.

(Y/n): You were in the military?

Old man: I was in a lot of things a military just happens to be one of them. So then take a seat and let me tell you about how love and lust work.

(Y/n): There's no chair for me to sit on.

In front of the stage, the old man walked to where all the chairs were. For some reason, he decided that he wanted the chair some guy who was smoking was sitting on. He just pushed him off the chair and came back to give it so (Y/n) now had something to sit on.

Old man: That man smells like he's been having an orgy with all of the damn skunks in the woods. Can't believe some people don't have the decency to take a bath before going somewhere public. He better use that as a learning experience.

(Y/n): Thanks for the chair. Mr uh actually what's your first name? Wait did I even introduce myself last time we met?

Old man: No you did not.

(Y/n): Sorry that's my bad I should have since my parents raised me to introduce myself when speaking with someone new.

Old man: Strange I thought parents were still teaching their kids stranger danger.
