Chapter Text
Asa Mitaka laid in her wanting to die.
So many things were going on in her life and non of them were good.
She had a date with a boy for the first time and though it was ruined by the eternity devil it was still the most fun she had in a while… which made it even worse when that good for nothing chainsaw man Denji decided to stand her up after asking her out on the second date. This not only reinforced Asa’s thinking of how she didn’t deserve love but also ruined her plan of making him into a weapon.
If she had made him into a weapon then the evil fucking devil in her head would have been gone doing god knows what with her weapon. But not she was still stuck with her. To make it worse Yoshida appeared right when she was about to leave and after she convinced herself that he was going to ask her out, Yoshida just told Asa to stay away from Denji.
Thanks yoshida you introduce me to this loser and now what? Did he have a crush on Denji and wanted Denji all for himself or something? What did he care if she was near that dirt bag denji anyways?
‘Please shut up!’ Yoru begged tired from having to listen to Asa thoughts all the time.
‘Think of like fucking rainbows and kittens for once I’m tired of this’ Yoru pleaded
‘Not my fault you possessed my body’ Asa retorted in her mind.
Asa still realized that she should calm her mind and do something, anything to keep her mind off of things… maybe she should get a job. I mean she had enough money from the life insurance of her parents, but it wouldn’t hurt to save up more for college and things.
She saw that a couple of new convenience stores and cafes had opened lately near her apartment. Due to devil attacks destroying many buildings it wasn’t uncommon for stores to be rebuilt with new owners and new employees. So she went out and found a poster asking for new employees and decided to contact the number on the poster which she decided to call.
After a couple of rings a man picked up.
“Hello who is this?” The man asked in a suspicious manner
“Ummmm, I’m calling to ask if you still need an employee for your cafe.”
“Uhhhh yeah we’re understaff right now. Could you come in for an interview?” The man asked. His voice seemed rough and tired, he sounded like he smoked a pack of cigarettes every day.
“Sure! Thank you so much sir. Is today a good time?” Asa replied not expecting it to be this easy.
“I don’t care” the man said and hung up.
“Asshole” Asa thought to herself before walking to the cafe.
Once she arrived to the cafe she took a deep breath and walked inside. It was actually a pretty nice cafe with a calm cozy vibe. There stood a blonde man with a scar across his face.
‘That dude looks scary as hell! He would make an amazing weapon!’ Yoru shouted
Asa decided to completely ignore Yoru and walked up to the man in the front counter.
“Hello I’m here for a job interview.” Asa said meekly. She wasn’t used to talking to new people and wasn’t really mentally ready for someone to nitpick her and judge her to see if she was qualified.
‘Though of course I am very qualified, I’m very smart and I’m pretty darn cute so I can definitely ace this interv-‘
“Yeah you hired”
“What?” Asa blurted out the question by accident.
Shift starts right now there’s 2 other co workers working right now. You can be like the cashier or something I don’t know.” The man said. Taking off his name tag which said Kishibe. He scribbled out his name.
“What’s your name?” Kishibe asked
“Mitaka Asa” Asa replied
He wrote her name in the corner of the scribbled out name tag and gave it to her.
“Well alright now. Get to work.” And after that the man just left.
Asa went back and greeted her co workers; they were also teenagers working to make some extra cash so Asa didn’t feel out of place. There was a poorly drawn schedule on a post it note in the back and Asa shift would end in 6 hours. She looked at the post it note It was 6 hours on weekends and 3 hours on 3/5 school days.
‘Not bad’ she thought to herself and got to work
Asa was getting the hang of it after the first few hours and even as more customers came she was able to greet them all and take all their orders. It helped her take her mind of Denji, Yuko, yoshida, and almost Yoru. Yoru wasn’t too bad actually keeping her company as customers died down.
Asa had 20 more minutes of her shift until it was time to close.
‘Not that bad huh?’ She asked yoru through her mind.
‘I’ll agree to keep you company during your shift but you have to make your co workers my weapon’ yoru replied not even acknowledging Asa question.
‘Maybe’ Asa replied though she didn’t even consider it.
Suddenly the door opened as a bell chimed to alert Asa of a new customer.
“Hello what may I get for you to-“
fuck
It was Denji
