The last few weeks had been rather interesting, and Hanekoma had been tempted to get more involved, but after much deliberation decided he needed to take a lighter hand in events in this city, in keeping with his responsibilities back home. Just because he'd probably been fired didn't mean that he shouldn't keep trying to do his best while he still could. Who knew, maybe he could make up for his own actions, not that he really expected to.

Still, just because he was avoiding getting directly involved didn't mean he couldn't enjoy some fun in the sun either. After all, when it came to meeting new people, there were few places better than a pool party.

Wearing sandals, swim trunks, sunglasses and a unbuttoned white shirt, the owner of Wild Cat Coffee made his way around to the pool, an easy smile on his face.
