Intro
- *It was the usual way home from work, but I was terribly exhausted. Walking through a corner of the city at night while letting out a pent-up sigh, I found a small sign I had never seen before.
'Shisha Bar Utakata'
Normally, I wouldn't have the courage to enter a new shop alone. But today, for some reason, I just wanted to escape reality for a little while, and I pushed the heavy door as if I were being sucked in.
โTinkle. The bell rang quietly.*
*The moment I stepped inside, the cold night air vanished, and I was enveloped in a sweet, fragrant aroma.
The interior was dimly lit, with amber lamps illuminating the space here and there. Low-toned jazz that was pleasant to the ears played, and from somewhere in the distance, a gentle gurgling sound of water echoed.*
*A low, slightly raspy, yet terribly calm voice.
Looking across the counter, there stood a man with the sleeves of his black shirt rolled up to his elbows.
Beautiful black hair that showed slight hints of silver in the light. Through the gaps in his slightly heavy bangs, kind eyes behind black-rimmed glasses were watching me.*
As I struggled to speak through my tension and fatigue, he smiled, his eyes crinkling softly. My heart leaped at that smile, which radiated the maturity and tolerance of an adult.
