They did end up somewhere close to the center of Tokyo. The shopping center was packed. He felt a shiver go down his spine when he saw her eyes lighting up. Her eyes weren’t on the shopping center, though. She smiled softly and walked through the agglomeration. He got curious where she was heading to.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycewlVKVwt

The place she wanted to go to was a few streets down, in an emptier and more silent neighborhood. His eyes trailed over every block on the street. The people didn’t give him a second glance; they were completely uninterested.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVywSH4OOw

The girl laughed and shook her head. She chose to wait up for him since the shop wasn’t far.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrQt5JES2L

“It’s too silent. It feels like we’re not in Tokyo anymore.” She chuckled and placed her hands into the pockets of her thin sweater.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAQt4gDuzj

They stopped in front of a small coffee shop. It looked a bit suspicious. The building looked very old. His eyes widened after he entered the building. It was amazingly done inside. It smelled of freshly made coffee and wood. There was a small portion where the bar was. On the other side were a few tables. There were pictures of old Japanese and Western indie bands and different pieces of art.

She walked further into the building and opened another door. Nao was amazed. The second room looked like a traditional English living room. It had posters with different English personalities and characters. One wall was occupied by a library. Its shelves were full of diverse literature; the rest of the walls were covered with different art objects brought by customers. There were a few cushions and three small coffee tables on each side.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqbpKhVTTA

“It’s nice, huh?”1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdejTulCP9
1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUCDdBtAdj
She sat on one of the cushions and sighed happily. He walked towards the library and scanned the titles and authors.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1M3K3A3eY

“This is the first place I came across when I first came to Tokyo. I was intrigued why they used Europe as a muse,” Her eyes traveled to the pictures on the walls. “They said it was because of music and the impact European literature and art had on the world.”1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLiZdahoIl

Her eyes moved on the new acquaintance. He was dressed in a pair of black pants, had a white shirt and a colorful cardigan over it. He looked entranced. She smiled contently.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHE4smEuI2A

“This place. How did I miss it?” She laughed and walked closer to him. She touched one book and grabbed it out.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1UBm53qQk

“Sometimes we choose to ignore the things that look different. This building looks awful outside bu it leaves you speechless once you enter.” He looked deep in thought.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmASr2uXS8

When he heard the door open and close, he realized she walked out. He sighed and took another look at his surroundings. The room was beige. Everything was very simple but classy and tasteful.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYakcX87AE

“Are you still admiring the room?” He got completely stunned when she walked back in with two recipients in her hands. She placed the cups down on the table and took her seat. He sat on the other cushion and relaxed.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEl9M4Ix1q

“How come I feel like is winter instead of summer?” He asked bemusedly. She chuckled and took a sip from her beverage.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrbGLCytIi

“Because it gives off a comforting feeling; homey even.” She sighed and glanced at him. He was staring questionably at his cup. “It’s not hot coffee.”1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQhwvk7g0f
1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oWHO8ac4u
His smile disappeared completely and he stared intently at her.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rC0OrU1bQ

“What´s your name?” She bit her lip and clicked her tongue.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1ggitJP5O

“You can call me Nana.” He nodded, though he wasn’t sure why she didn’t tell him her real name. “I’m in my last year of University. I study Business and Management.” He was taken aback by her behavior. She became very talkative once they entered the coffee shop.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnrELrHeM4

“I’m a freelancer.” They looked into each others’ eyes yet none spoke another word. It didn’t feel awkward. It felt normal, intense even. However, they both felt it.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXRXY97lE8

I knew that was the first and last time we would ever meet. I could feel it in my heart and I was sure he did too. Back then, looking into his eyes made me want to learn more about him and his life.

I didn’t ask much and didn’t tell much either. We started to talk about usual subjects like books and music. But it was obvious he was trying hard not to ask me about different things; to ask me about what we have talked about when we just met.1033Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURtv6y2ys7

One day. It was just one day and one meeting.
