the bell on the door rings, signalling that someone is opening the door.

i quickly put away my phone and bowed slightly to the man. i raised my eyebrows, isn't he from yesterday?

i watched him took the same ramen like yesterday, which is onomichi ramen and walked back to the counter.

i scanned the ramen price, and before i even talked or stated the price, he already gave me the money.

"i know the price already." he said, shaking the money in his hand in ftont of me. i was a bit taken back, but nonetheless i still take it.

"plast-" he cut my sentences with a nod, i understood what he meant and immediately snatch a plastic bag and put the onomichi ramen in it.

he took the plastic bag, and look at me with his empty eyes just like yesterday. "thanks." he thanked me shortly, although it feels like he doesn't mean it.

i forced a sincere smile, "thank you for sto-" again, he cut my sentences short. "yeah." i guess he already know what i was going to say.

he left the store, and i watched him walking further away from my position. i shake my head, "his eyes are so blank." i mumbled to myself.
