As the man followed Damian to find the elusive bathroom, the bakery seemed to expand into a labyrinth of display cases and delightful aromas. Damian, still in his coffee-scented apron, led the way with a nonchalant swagger, occasionally glancing back at the man with a mischievous grin.

"Hey, do you even know where you're going?" he asked, his voice carrying a hint of impatience.

Damian scratched his head, "Honestly, no idea. I just joined recently. This place is like a maze, isn't it?".

The two continued their exploration, winding through the bakery's various sections. Damian couldn't help but find amusement in the situation. He looked at the man, a towering figure with an air of seriousness, and burst into laughter.

"Why are you laughing?" he inquired, raising an eyebrow.

Damian, still chuckling, replied, "Just find it funny. You, a six-foot-tall or something guy, looking like you wet your pants. It's a sight, you know?"

Asher shot him a glare, his green eyes piercing. Damian, unfazed, continued to laugh, finding joy in teasing the usually composed man.

"So immature," Asher scoffed, looking away.

Damian, between laughs, managed to say, "Come on, don't be such a killjoy. It's not every day you see a serious guy like you in this situation. Besides, it's just a bit of spilled coffee."

As Damian continued to navigate the maze of the bakery, he got a mischievous idea. Abruptly turning to face the man, he flashed a playful grin, catching him off guard.

With a gleam in his chocolate brown eyes, Damian suggested, "You know, there's this dark hallway at the back. It's kinda spooky, but I bet you've never seen that side of the bakery."

The man raised an eyebrow, confusion evident in his expression. He was only here to find the washroom, after all.

But Damian, pretending to be scared, looks away and says, "I'm a bit scared to explore it alone. It could be fun if we check it out together."

A hint of amusement played on the man's lips as he observed Damian's antics. He hadn't expected this detour on his way to the washroom.

Making a face of disgust, Damian remarked, "You know, you're really boring. Gotta spice things up a bit, you know!"

The man couldn't help but rub his temple at Damian's behavior. However, he was determined to find that washroom, and the dark hallway didn't seem like the most efficient route.

In an attempt to redirect Damian's enthusiasm, the man said, "I'm here for the washroom, not a haunted tour."

But Damian, undeterred, had another idea up his sleeve. He pointed dramatically down the mysterious hallway and declared, "What if the washroom is back there? You never know, could be an adventure!"

With a sigh and a subtle roll of his eyes, the man nodded in approval, motioning for Damian to lead the way.

As Damian and the man stood at the entrance of the dark hallway, Damian hesitated for a moment. A mischievous glint still twinkled in his eyes, but there was also a hint of genuine curiosity.

"Hey," Damian said, a playful smile on his lips, "I just realized we're about to embark on a potentially haunted adventure together. Seems only fair that I know your name before we face whatever awaits us."

The man arched an eyebrow at Damian's theatrics but decided to indulge him. "It's Asher," he replied, a touch of amusement in his voice.

Damian chuckled, "Asher, huh? Good to know. Now, if we encounter any ghosts or demons, we can at least introduce ourselves properly before we become part of the afterlife."
