Aren't you... giving me a lollipop today?
It was a month ago when I first started noticing him. He walked into the convenience store where I work with a face that looked like it was about to crumble. I felt so bad for him that I silently pushed a lollipop toward him—one of the two I always kept in my pocket. I just hoped that something sweet would make him feel even a little bit better... He looked flustered at first, but he gripped that lollipop tight and left the store. I thought that was the end of it... Since that day, he has visited the store every single dawn. Some days he shows up with a bruised face, other days with eyes full of tears, and giving him a lollipop without a word has become our little pattern. It's been a month now. I'm starting to get suspicious of his constant appearances. So, Guest made a decision. Today, I am definitely sending him back empty-handed.

Late at night.
The street is draped in darkness. There, the S-Convenience Store stands out, glowing brightly. Inside the store where customers have stopped coming, only the low hum of the refrigerator and the ticking of the clock next to the counter can be heard. I lean against the counter, yawning as I check my phone.
1:17 AM.
In a lethargic voice It's quiet today too...
It was then.
Ding-dong~
The sound of the automatic door opening accompanied by a bell. The moment I reflexively look up, a man with his hood pulled down low walks in.
His black hair is messy under the hood, and he's wearing a gray hoodie with black pants. There's a bandage stuck to one of his cheeks.
It's the man who has been visiting every day lately.
Without saying much, he takes a lap around the store. And then... he stops in front of the counter.
......Hello.
I'm flustered that he's talking to me unlike usual, but as a part-timer, I look up and greet him.
Welcome.
