My system allows me to copy talents C.423 A visit to the cafe

"She's handled internships with some top companies, and everyone who's worked with her speaks highly of her. Besides her professional qualifications, she's got a knack for social media and understands the intricacies of managing a public persona."

Eric was full of her praises. And, it almost seemed as if he were her patron.

He ardently listened to Eric as he continued to vouch. Then as he finished his sentence, Hiro looked at Eric, weighing his options. Eric had a strange glimmer in his eyes, almost as if he were expecting a positive response from him.

It made him a bit uncomfortable. But as he remembered the constant barrage of notifications and demands flooding his way, he couldn't help but think otherwise.

After all, the thought of having someone skilled to handle these hassling aspects of his life was rather tempting.

"Do you really think she's the right fit for me?" he asked concernedly.

Eric nodded confidently as he answered, "Absolutely. I wouldn't have suggested her if I didn't think so. I've seen her work and believe she can make your life much easier. Give her a chance. If it doesn't work out, we can always reconsider."

It was exactly as he said. If it doesn't work out what's the worst that could happen to him?

As he heard him, Hiro thought for a while. Seeing Hiro lost in his thoughts, Eric too remained silent as he awaited his decision. And, while he took his time to think, it got eerily silent around them.

Then after a long pause, Hiro let out a sigh, feeling the weight of his decision, "Alright, Eric. Let's meet her. But I want to be clear about boundaries and privacy."

Though he was willing to let her handle his personal information, he didn't want her to strictly control his schedules for him.

As Eric heard Hiro's response, his eyes glistened with joy. He was both relieved and excited to hear his decision. He knew that it would be beneficial to him.

"Of course, Hiro," Eric agreed, his tone laced with excitement. "I'll arrange a meeting with her. You'll see—this could be a game-changer for you."

Though he had already made his decision, he still wasn't sure if it'd bring him some positive results or negative. But still, since it's a professional who's handling it, he was assured that it'd reduce the pressure on him by a lot.

Since they are trained in such kinds of stuff, obviously they'd deal with it better than him. For now, he could relax and enjoy his time. After all, not every day would he be able to taste such delicious delicacies now, would he?

And also, not every day would he be able to relax like the present moment. So, he needed to savor this moment as much as he could so that he could recharge his mind and soul.

Enjoying the scenic garden view, the melodious chime of music in the background, and some other delicacies that the restaurant had to offer, Hiro spent his time wisely.

The next day, Eric once again set up a meeting at another exclusive venue; a quiet cafe with an elegant, and minimalist design. There wasn't any game today as well, but he still had to show up for the training.

Since he hadn't missed even a single training session since the beginning of his professional career, he could have asked for a leave. But despite having the privilege to apply for a leave, he finished his training before heading to the meeting location.

Arriving early, he stood in front of the cafe, scanning for the person who matched Eric's description. The cafe wasn't crowded, and everyone seemed engrossed in their own world.

For today's occasion, since he was going to meet a new person, he had chosen to dress in formal attire to leave a good impression on the person he was scheduled to meet. It wasn't Eric, but the person whom Eric had mentioned previously.

He continued to search for a while through the window panel, but he couldn't locate anybody who matched Eric's description. So, he retracted his gaze as he ended his search. Then he looked at his reflection in the mirror.

He was dressed in a white linen shirt and a formal black pant.

Due to the rush, his shirt had come untucked. So, he tucked it again, smoothened it a bit, and fixed his collar before heading inside.

As he stepped inside the cafe, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled his senses. The cafe was brightly lit and had a rather warm glow to it.

For a while, he stood at the entrance, appreciating the elegance of this place.

Only after one of the staff members approached him did he come back to his senses, "Woah..., you're Takahashi Hiro right?" she exclaimed, her eyes wide with excitement.

Though he had left his cap back home, he still had his mask on. So, it should be still quite difficult to notice him.

As he came to his senses, he noticed the girl in front of him.

The staff girl was dressed in the cafe's uniform of a crisp white shirt and black apron. She had a rather friendly, and welcoming demeanor. Her short brown hair framed her face, and her eyes were sparkling with enthusiasm.

However, despite her professional demeanor, it was clear that she was thrilled to see Hiro in person.

Hiro could have easily denied her claims and ignored her. But for some reason, he didn't feel like denying her.

"Yes, that's me," Hiro replied while pulling down his mask a bit, showcasing a warm smile on his face.

As he lifted down his mask, her eyes sparkled with excitement.

"I can't believe you're here!" she said, her voice filled with genuine excitement. "I'd love to ask for an autograph or a photo, but I'm on duty, and I don't want to get in trouble."

Though she appeared to be excited, she was well aware of her boundaries. She knew that it'd cause trouble if she were to ask him to do something. He was their customer at the moment, and it was their duty to serve him to the best of their abilities.
