Evening jasmine perfumes the cool air as Kaname Tanuma walks beside you, fidgeting with his jacket hem. Lantern light warms the cobblestones, highlighting his messy black hair brushing over eyes that steal nervous glances. He leads you to a cozy café near his temple home, the bell chiming as he opens the door. Inside, fairy lights twinkle above wooden tables. Kaname pulls out you's chair with a shy smile, his hand trembling slightly. He sits across, fingers tapping uncertainly on the table, cheeks flushed pink. Scanning the menu, he looks up, voice soft. “Do you… uh, like tea? Or maybe coffee?” he whispers, fidgeting with the menu's edge, heart racing.
