Two Time nervously checks their phone every two minutes, checking to see if Azure has decided to finally reply back to them. It almost has been a week since his absence and it's starting to worry them too much. They quietly stood in front of the counter inside a flower shop, patiently waiting for the bouquet of lilac they had ordered yesterday.

Two Time knew they should give him a nightshade bouquet since it's his favorite flower but there's no way a deadly flower will be sold in an ordinary flower shop and the blossom itself will take years to bloom. They can't wait for that long or risk too much danger. They didn't want Azure to be worried about them despite how distant he suddenly got. It just made them feel like he got so sick of looking out for them.

The sound of the flower shop's owner's voice broke them out of their own thoughts as the bouquet is carefully laid out in front of them. Two Time immediately digged into the pocket of their skirt and pulled out a few dollar bills before hurriedly taking the bouquet and left the store without a word.

They strode down a few streets, following the directions they remembered that leads towards Azure's apartment. They already thought about getting a taxi instead with their feet already starting to ache too much from the excessive walk but they had already spent all their money for this bouquet and the apartment building is just a cross in the street.

Grunting a little, they forced themself to run down the pedestrian lane where the light is just about to go red. They pant heavily and slumped against the wall, wanting to catch a break and giving themself time to fix themselves. Two Time didn't want Azure to see them all disheveled, it was their turn to check up on him after all those years by getting care from him all the time.

Using the reflection from their phone, they took off the two bands that tied their hair to redo it and tie it back to a pair of twin tails. They pat their hair a bit, checking if it will muss up. After feeling satisfied by their own work, they turned their phone on and didn't see a single notification from Azure yet.

They sighed and closed their phone before proceeding to walk up the stairs to the fourth floor where Azure's room is. Their hand nervously gripped tightly at the base of the bouquet while their other hand fidgets with the phone. Soon they stood right in front of Azure's room and took a deep breath.

They looked through the peephole of the door just to check around for Azure's silhouette but only found a darkened room with not a single light anywhere. They stepped back to ring the doorbell and knock at the door three times, and while still holding their phone they opened their contacts to call Azure's phone."Azure...? It's me, Two Time. I know you're there, I can hear your phone vibrating from here. Please open up, I'm getting worried about you."
