[h2][center][color=SpringGreen] Ikki Yasukawa [/color][/center][/h2] Ikki had gotten so engrossed into his manga the world around him had become distant and the passage of time had become an unknown. His brain but only the smallest amount of attention to everything but what he was reading. His mind had drifted off into the pages of manga watching the story unfold in his head like a movie. It was only when he heard a knock did Ikki's mind start to register there was a whole world outside of it. But as quick it started to register the world it slipped back into the manga's world. It was only when his name was spoken did Ikki crash back into reality. Luckily Ikki heard what was said to him but his brain was a mess so Ikki merely looked at Sora for a moment as his brain worked out what to say. [color=SpringGreen]"Yeah that's me.[/color] he stated as he started to think of any odd job that this young man could do for him. [color=SpringGreen]"No jobs for you sorry, As for new manga ask me next Tuesday. That when next shipment with new manga arrives. Well for us anyway. Although the malls not open your welcome to come in a browse, but I can't sell you anything as it be unfair.[/color] " Ikki said after a moments thought looking at his manga that now sat open on the counter. [color=SpringGreen]"So... I'm going to keep reading. Rude yes I know and I apologize but... this is at a exciting part and well... if I don't read its going distract me all day. You can still talk to me thought. Just.... need to... read... it."[/color] Ikki stated trying sound legitimately sorry as he was. It was just fault with him once he got sucked into manga he and got to a part he was enjoying he simply had to read it or it hunt him all day like a crappy ghost. ---- Once the mall had opened Ikki quickly had his hands full dealing with customers for couple of hours and pleased his coworker Yu arrived 15 minutes early seemed to bursting with more energy then he as he normally did. With the extra pair of hands at his disposal Ikki was able to get Yu started on re boxing once the store had quietened down a little able to handle the customers himself with relative ease. Eventuality the store back quite leaving only Ikki out the front. Glad to have moments respite Ikki sighed staying professional and smiling all day was tiring even if he had been doing it for a couple of years. He was about to tell Yu to man the register so he could restock the shelves seeing a couple of small gaps the shelves which had been bothering him for a while. But just as he was about to leave the register a girl came into the store wear a devil out fit. Making Ikki for a moment lose his professional persona [color=SpringGreen][i]"Such a babe." [/i][/color] he thought clearing his throat so he could give the basic greeting after he had to she was the only potential customer in the store... plus he couldn't be rude her it wound his pride. [color=SpringGreen]"Welcome to Kitsune."[/color] Ikki said with a smile, watching the girl as she introduced herself. Finding it unnecessary had seen her around the cafe a few times in a some different out fits had figured she worked there, still learning her name was good. As she started to look around Ikki looked at the register with some difficulty looking back her when he heard her speak when she noticed Dekomori Sanae figure. Hearing her mention her friends thought Takanashi Rikka was cuter then Dekomori Sanae made him lose his cool for just a moment casuing his mouth speak before his brain had time to stop him. [color=SpringGreen]"What!?! That's utter rubbish. I'll admit both have there charm but Dekomori Sanae is far cut... er. Apologies. That outburst was inappropriate. Please forgive me."[/color] Ikki said realizing as he was speaking he had lost his cool, giving a sigh feeling little shameful. Hearing Mayumi ask for his name Ikki perked back up. [color=SpringGreen]"Yasukawa Ikki. I'm the manager here. I'm very pleased to make your acquaintance. Anyone who share's my views about Dekomori Sanae cuteness is more then welcome here."[/color] he said giving a small laugh and smile to hide the embarrassed look on his face as his mouth had again engaging before his brain. [color=SpringGreen][i]"I bet I sound like a complete and utter otaku."[/i][/color]
