Aww, was it time for her to say goodbye already? Yutaro felt like he could chat and flirt with Ryoki all day. It was a cruel woman who tantalized a man like that with allusions to things that could be, only to walk away with all the power in her hands. Indeed, Ryoki had gotten the better end of the exchange, obtaining two means of contacting him should she have such a whim. Yutaro would simply have to wait, or else pace in front of Mochavine like an abandoned mutt waiting for her to come back for either coffee or a performance. For the first time in a long time, he felt out of his element; Yutaro was used to being the one making all the moves and more or less being in control of his relationships. However, there was something exciting about having that control taken away from him, or rather never given to him in the first place. [i]You're setting yourself up for heartbreak with this one,[/i] said a voice in the back of his head, which Yutaro promptly silenced. As Ryoki got up to leave, Yutaro rewarded her for the fun chat by putting on his most charming smile. "Alright," he said in a bright voice reflecting only the joy of having met her and not the disappointment of her departure. "I'll see you around then." At this point he would normally tell girls he liked not to be shy, but he didn't think Ryoki would have that problem. He felt like he made it pretty obvious that he was in to her, and any more would just make him look desperate. He returned her wave and relished in the sight of her bewitching stride as she walked out the door. He took the last sip of his coffee as well, but decided to wait a bit before departing himself. He was probably overthinking it, but he didn't want to seem like a stalker, leaving right after she did. Besides, there was still one other manner to attend to... His gaze flicked briefly over to Rosanna, who was still busy taking orders and working the register, and then back down to the napkin. Oh, what a mean idea it was that somehow barged into his chivalrous mind... but seeing as how Rosanna probably had no shame in flirting with five guys at once, perhaps it was fitting. Stealthily, Yutaro unfolded the napkin once again, and did something with the number that few people dared to do these days: he memorized it. Then, he got up out of his seat and headed over to the garbage pail near the exit, waiting for Rosanna's eyes to fall on him. He made sure she was looking, but broke eye contact immediately to make sure she didn't realize that he was even aware of her. Let her think that he was still on cloud nine after making a beautiful new friend. He dabbed his lip with the napkin one more time, crumpled it up before Rosanna's eyes, and tossed it in the wastebasket. It was definitely out of character for him to do something so mean, but in the game of love, the winners were those who stood out. Who would Rosanna remember, the five guys who kept her napkin scribbles as a sacred treasure, or the one guy who tossed it away? [@Delta44] [@Dynamo Frokane]
