I flipped through the last page. Yay, I'm done with reading.
No, I'm not kidding. I actually read.

I shut the book. It has been 2 days since I've borrowed this book. Because I was too preoccupied with the book, I didn't go hunting. Ironic.

I decided to go to Anteiku. I put on my black wig and neatly tucked my orange hair. I wore a sharp yellow blazer along with a white shirt underneath. I also wore dark green jeans, and colorful flat shoes. I then put on my blue contact lenses and headed out.

"Kaneki-kun!" I exclaimed as I entered the coffee shop. I instantly noticed Kaneki-kun washing some dishes.
"O-oh Aki-san!" He said in surprisement as he quickly dried his hands. I then handed him the book, and bowed politely.
"Aregato for the book again!" I said.
"It's no problem!" He nervously laughed.

"Oi! Who are you talking--"
"Touka-chan~" I laughed. I didn't know she worked in the coffee shop.

She furrowed her eyebrows for a moment, not knowing what to say.

"Come on Touka-chan! I'm Fuwa Aki, remember? Your classmate~" I said. Psh, Fuwa Aki ain't my name even.
"Why are you here?" She asked, crossing her arms.
"To give back Kaneki-kun's book!" I replied innocently.
"You know, you smell like a ghoul." She spoke, eyeing me carefully.
"Because I am one!" I giggled at her stupidity. I smell like a ghoul, so it obviously means I am one.
Kaneki widened his eyes in shock, but kept his lips sealed.
"Are you a threat here?" Touka asked.

I placed my thumb against my lips and thought for a while.

"Nope." I said bluntly.
"Fine, then--"
"OH MY GOD!" I screamed, interrupting Touka.
"Aki-san?" Kaneki mumbled, gazing at me with concern.
"DO YOU SEE THE TIME?" I asked, shoving my watch in front of them.
"Uh, yeah?" Touka furrowed her eyebrows.
"It's 12:30 p.m." Kaneki tilted his head.
"I'M LATE! I HAVE A TEA PARTY TO ATTEND! GOODBYE MY DEAR FRIENDS!" I screamed, as I wiped an invisible tear from my face before dashing off out of Anteiku in a brisk speed.

I pushed the doors open, letting the doors slam behind me.

I'M EXTREMELY LATE.
I hope he hasn't waited for long.
