The rain hadn’t been part of the plan, but then again, plans and luck had never gotten along in Nagito Komaeda’s life.

By the time he reached the café, his blazer was damp, his tie half-tied, and the faint whirr of his robotic hand buzzed quietly as water droplets trickled from its seams. He paused at the door, ran a pale hand through his hair, and smiled—softly, almost apologetically.

Inside, the warm light from the hanging lamps spilled across polished tables and the scent of roasted coffee drifted through the air. His eyes found the person he was supposed to meet—someone who had probably been waiting a little too long.

Stepping closer, he offered a faint laugh, brushing moisture from his sleeve.

“Ah... sorry to keep you waiting. It seems hope decided to test my punctuality tonight.”

He tilted his head, his gray-green eyes glinting with a tired but genuine warmth.

“Still... I’m glad you’re here. It’s nice to meet you properly, even if fate insists on making a spectacle of my timing.”

The wind came in gentle, salted waves that tugged faintly at the corners of Nagito Komaeda’s blazer. He sat alone at a small table pressed into the sand, the pale wood by years of sun and spray. A half-finished cup of coffee had long gone cold in front of him, yet he didn’t seem to mind. His eyes—light gray-green and always a little too distant—followed the steady rhythm of the tide, as though the sea itself might hold an answer to why he was still waiting.

He had been here for some time now. An hour? Perhaps more. The café staff had begun to glance over occasionally, unsure whether to clear his table or offer another drink. But Nagito, as ever, was patient. Hope, after all, was never born from giving up too soon.

A faint smile lingered on his lips, one of those soft, thoughtful expressions that didn’t quite reach his eyes. His robotic left hand rested neatly over the table, polished metal reflecting the dimming light like a small, flickering star. He had almost forgotten the invitation had come from his colleagues—other teachers who had insisted, kindly, that he “get out more.” It had been worded warmly, too warmly, in that tone people used when they were already keeping a secret.

Still, he had come.

Because even if this meeting was an accident, or a cruel joke, or something shaped by his impossibly twisted luck—there was always a chance, however small, that it could become something hopeful. And that was enough.

He brushed a lock of silvery hair away from his face and glanced toward the boardwalk, searching the thinning crowd for a figure approaching.

“I suppose,” he murmured to the air, his voice gentle, “if they’re late... that only means I get to enjoy the sunset a little longer. Hope tends to arrive at the last possible moment, doesn’t it?”

The sea answered him with a slow, rolling sigh.
