Meanwhile,
It was nighttime, and the café had already closed. Yuki was inside, cleaning one of the tables. His co-worker Mina was sitting on a chair, sweeping upright lazily.
"Hey Yuki, do you believe in destiny?" she asked suddenly.
Yuki signed with his hands," Why are you asking that all of a sudden? No, I don't believe in destiny. It's just fiction."
Mina understood sign language, as she had been working with Yuki for two years.
She smiled and said, "Well, I believe in destiny. I think two people who are meant to meet always meant to meet - no matter what happens."
As they were talking, the café door creaked open. The manger had arrived.
without even looking, Mina aloud, "We're closed
now."
Then she turned and saw it was the manger. Both Yuki and Mina quickly greeted him.
Mina asked him, "Why are you here sir? Is anything wrong?"
He replied, "No, nothing's wrong." I just came here to inform you two that we're getting a new employee. He'll start working here from tomorrow."
Yuki and Mina exchanged surprised looks.
"But you've never hired a new part-timer before." Mina said.
Yuki nodded with agreement.
The manger explained, "Why do you two look so surprised? He's the son of a childhood friend. His mother asked me to give him a chance, so I agreed. It's his first part-time job. I want you two help him out, alright ?"
Mina gave playfully gave a salute. "Roger!" she said.
Yuki followed with a small smile, mimicking her.
The manger chuckled." Good. You both can close up the café now."
Yuki and Mina agreed, finished their work and went their separate ways.
...----------------...
Later that night,
Yuki walked down the quiet street alone, thinking to himself, "I wonder who the new part-timer is."
He looked up at the night sky and saw the full moon glowing brightly.
He remembered his mother's words :
"If you're ever feeling lonely, just look at the moon - someone, somewhere is looking at it too."
He whispered to himself, "The moon is beautiful tonight."
When he reached his apartment, he went into his bedroom and noticed a big box on his bed.
"Oh I forgot to put this away," he thought.
As he tried to move it on to the table, it slipped and fell, and all its contents scattered across the floor.
While picking up the items, his hand paused on a photograph.
It was a photograph - of him and a boy, both smiling, both so young. Besides, it was a small handkerchief.
Yuki stared at it, lost in thought.
"I finally realize how much I miss him. Wherever something good or bad happens, and the only person you want to tell is the one person who isn't here anymore."
He held the photo gently and whispered,
"Where are you now?"
Yuki thought to himself.
