Kaneki's POV

"Well...this fits me.", I said while trying some clothes in the storeroom.

I exited the storeroom and went downstairs, I met with the manager.

"Ah. Kaneki-kun, I want to ask you something."

"Oh what is it?"

"How about you work at Anteiku, starts from tomorrow?"

"That's okay, since I have nothing to do."

"Finally, we have more people at the counter.", a man said.

"Oh, that's Koma Enji. The girl beside him is Irimi Kaya."

"Nice to meet you, Koma-san, Irimi-san."

"Nice to meet you too, Kaneki-kun."

"So there's your uniform.", the manager handed me a set of clothes as same as the rest of the people.

I went to the toilet and changed to the uniform.

"Wow, looking slick!", Irimi said.

"The Devil Ape approve!", Koma said.

"*laugh* Thanks!"

--A few days later--

"Great Kaneki-kun, you doing good, slowly...", Yoshimura said. "Job well done, you truly have a gift in making coffee."

"It's quite hard to make a simple cup of coffee....", I said as I wiped away my sweat on my forehead.

"It's a delicate job. Making coffee is not just pouring hot water to the coffee powder only.", Yoshimura said.

I nodded my head as I listened to the manager said about the "Art of making coffee".

"Whoa, it's complicate."

"Don't worry Kaneki-kun, some practice later and you're ready to go.", Yoshimura said.

"Okay!"

I went out of the staff room and realized the cafe is full of people.

"Hey Kaneki! Don't just stand there, come and help us.", Touka yelled at me.

"Bring this to the table at the far side.", Koma said.

I bring the cup to the table and said "Okay your iced latte is here.", there are two ladies at there.

"May...I ask, are your hair colour natural?", one of them asked.

"Well.....it is...", I said as I touched my hair.

"It is so cool! Can I touch it?", another lady asked.

"You can.....", I just about to finish my sentence until Touka yelled from the counter "HEY KANEKI! Stop flirting to other people, we still have work to do!"

"Sorry I have to go...", I said as I quickly went to the counter.

"What's the matter....ARRGGG!", Touka pulled my cheek and I groaned. She pulled me closer, stared into her deadly glare.

"Your job is working, not flirting, okay?", she released me and handed me a cup of cappuccino.

"That place.", she pointed at a place as I rubbed my cheek.

"Okay...."

The door bell rang and two people came in.

"Welcome...", I said.

"Oi Nishiki, aren't you suppose to work today?", Touka said.

"Today's my day off, I'm taking care of Hinami-chan.", a tall male said

"Good afternoon, onee-chan!", a little brown-haired girl said.

She noticed me and asked Touka "Who is this onii-chan?"

"Oh he's a new guy. Introduce yourself.", Touka said.

"My name is Kaneki Ken."

"Mine's Nishio Nishiki, nice to meet you, Kaneki-kun."

I squatted down, about the same height level as the little girl.

"What's yours?", I said with a smile.

"Fueguchi Hinami!", she replied excitedly. "You're quite handsome."

"Oh really....", my face flush as I scratched the back of my head.

"Come on Hinami-chan, let's go.", Nishiki said as they went to the back of the staff room.

"See you later, onee-chan, onii-chan! " Hinami said.

We both smile and waved at her.

"She's cute." I mumbled.

--After work--

I sat on the chair, leaned against the wall, tried from the whole day of work. The manager had assign Touka and I to close the shop.

"Bye Kaneki-kun.", Nishiki said as he exited the staff room.

"Bye Nishio-senpai.", I said.

I got up and went outside to bring in the sign.

"Emm...Touka-chan."

"Yeah?"

"Can you teach me how to make latte art?", I asked.

"Sure, but not today, have tons of homework.", she replied.

"Thanks by the way."

She entered the staff room after she finished all the cleaning before me. I closed all the lights and mumbled "I like this place, just like home."

I entered my room, well...for now it just have a single bed only but it is enough for me to live. I picked up some clothes l left on the bed and went to the bathroom.

"Ahh~so relaxing. Nothing is better than a nice shower after work.", I mumbled.

I sat on my bed, drying my hair and stared to the empty room of mine.

"Have to do something about it....", I said in my mind.

I lied down to the bed, stared at the ceiling, slowly drifted into my dreams.
