DAY VIII OF CASE "SPECTRE"
Your first thought was that if Kunikida wasn't at work, he was probably in his room. Yet when you went to check his room and knocked on the door, you didn't get any answer. Usually, he would be right by the door in seconds.
With a loud sigh, you groaned, "ugh... where the hell could he be?"
"(Y/N)?"
Just then, you turned around to see a certain white-haired boy. He wasn't the person you were looking for, but you still wanted to greet him. "Hey, Atsushi! Thank you again for doing Dazai's weird plan with me yesterday. If we never did that, I wouldn't be here right now. I really owe you one."
"You don't owe me anything," he assured you. "I'm just glad you're home safe and sound."
Although his tone of voice didn't match his next actions, he still proceeded to leap at you, hugging you tightly to his chest. It was so unexpected that you got knocked over by his strength.
You two hit the ground with a loud thud. Once you fell down, both of you couldn't help but laugh at your silliness. "Sorry," Atsushi nervously laughed, "I probably shouldn't have done that."
"No, no, it's alright! You don't have to apologize for anything! It just caught me by surprise," you explained. "But I do mean what I said. How could I repay you?"
"Uh..." Atsushi began to speak, before realizing the position you both were in and becoming a flustered mess.
Although you were confused for a second by his blushing face, after a couple seconds you figured out why he looked so embarrassed. You quickly helped him stand up as you both began awkwardly apologizing again.
"Sorry again about knocking you over! That was really stupid of me!"
"No, stop saying sorry, it's alright! It was honestly my fault. I was the one that fell over in the first place," you replied, trying to place the blame upon yourself.
Quickly dusting yourself off, you asked once more, "so, for the final time, Atsushi, what can I do to repay you?"
He knew you wouldn't take nothing for an answer. So he said the first thing that came to mind. "If you have time right now, there's a good boba shop nearby... we could go and get some if you'd like, it's just a quick in-and-out."
"That should be fine," you agreed. You wouldn't be fine with getting drunk before meeting with everyone you wanted to meet with, but a quick boba drink would cause no issue.
