When he frowned and tried to drown down a bunch of cold water he laughed but his response is what made him give the boy more attention than he normally should have. Tiatsu came with a witty reply of, “It doesn’t matter how much you tip. The act of tipping shows you care more about him than what he is asking of you. I’m sure your parents have said. ‘It’s the thought that counts’ more times than you’d like to admit.”

He continued to read the bingo book as he waited for his Macha to come, though as he was reading he looked up periodically to just keep a tab on his surroundings and every time he did the boy was looking at the back of the boy. So, when he tried to sneak a glance the next time the book would be flipped towards him, allowing its contents to be read.

“I’m read our bingo book. Specifically looking at ninja in the land of lighting. If you are so curious here.” Tiatsu tossed him the book.

Finally, his Macha pudding came and when it did it had a small candle inside of it. It was actually Tiatsu’s 19th birthday today and the man knew. When he saw the candle, he would walk over to the kid with the red face who would by now be reading his bingo book and placed it down in front of him. Then with the combination of both of his hands over the Macha he struck a spark between his two hands and lit the candle.

“It’s Macha, or green tea pudding. It’s a great cold desert and it’ll cool down your face. It’s on me. But.” He snatched his book back from the boy’s hands and replaced it with 50,000 ryo. Then began to slowly but surely walk away from the ramen stall.

'''“Keep your heart in the right place kid. Maybe one day it’ll pay off.” '''

If he wasn’t followed or spoken to from this point forward he would disappear into the crowd and move along with his day.
