"That was a great performance, Risa. Didn't know you're a great lyricist."
"Thank you, Celina" Risa replied with a wide smile in her face. Maybe, this night might not be so painful at all.
Celina is another waitress that Brian hired. Customers are starting to boost so they need more manpower.
"Let's go home" Fion said to his family. The cafe is about to close and they still need to catch a cab so it's best to already leave. Moreover, Fion know how Lilian deals with people who has a huge crush on Fion and boy you wouldn't want to know.
"Wait, let's say hello first to Risa. I want to thank her for the performance" Lilian said, not moving an inch on her seat and patiently waits for other people to leave.
"I don't think there's a need for that, Lilian"
"You don't think there's a need for that because you're scared I might hurt her and offer her as a tribute to the crocodiles, right?"
Okay, the crocodile part may be exaggerated, but the hurt part? Yes, that's what Fion is worried about.
"Hey, don't worry, okay? I won't create scandal. Plus, you've said it yourself, unlike your exes, Risa is genuinely happy for the both of us. That's why I really want to meet her and get to know her" Lilian explained, which earned a nod from Fion.
After some time, the cafe had already been closed and the workers also got to go home. They didn't really bother if Fion and his family is still inside, 'cause that's actually the plan. Locked them up inside and talk.
"Yo, Fion so nice to see you here! Oh my gosh! Is he your son? He's so cute!" Annie squeals and level her head to the little boy's eyes.
"Hey there, Romeo. From now on, I'll be your aunty number 1" Annie said, earning a cute giggle from Leo.
"Who you calling Romeo? He's name's Leo and no, you're not gonna be his aunty. You're too crazy! Who knows what kind of pranks you'll teach my son" Fion complained
"You're so mean! Brian, your brother is so mean!" Annie said, pouting which for some reason ammuses Lilian
"I don't have a brother" Fion growled but sounded almost like a whine
"Oh come on, quit it! We're family." Brian said, which made the couple felt warmth inside. They never really met people who are so welcoming ever since all the people around them decided to leave.
Fion on the other hand felt guilty. If he knew from the very beginning that these guys would be the first people who will welcome him with smile no matter what his decisions in life be, then he would have never leave.
"I-I'm sorry" Fion genuinely said, bowing his head.
"Woah! Did I just hear the mighty Fion said sorry?" Risa popped out from the staff room. Lilian can't contain her laugh with Risa's question. Being in a relationship with Fion made her knew that the guy rarely apologize, but he sure do some effort to convey how sorry he is to the people he have hurt.
"You heard it right! Didn't know it's in his vocabulary" Annie said, teasing the poor guy.
"Oh, please you're torturing him. Anyways, it's all fine, bro. No need to fret" Brian said putting his arms on Fion's shoulder.
"Dude, can't believe you got yourself a Goddess. And you're son is so cute!! Can I touch him?" Risa said non stop, which earned a blush from Lilian and a giggle from her three friends.
"Yes, you can. His name's Leo. And this beauty right here is my girlfriend, Lilian" Fion introduced
"Hello ma lady, name's Risa" Risa introduced herself, smiling so wide while offering Lilian a handshake.
