[ the offer isn't met with any resistance at all; Haru's glad for it, actually. he knows himself well enough to understand how much he didn't want to get a job, so. chances were high that if he went alone tomorrow, he'd find distractions, or just get lost inside of his head. ]
[his wrist? where the hell did that come from? weren't they just talking about jobs, and Makoto, and how excellently qualified Rin is?]
[either way, it actually... makes him feel happy; sometimes he thought all his pushing and goading Haru was as selfish as Haru always complained about. it was hard not to feel that way, occasionally, with him always being the one reaching out]
[but here is Haru, reaching out to tell Rin that -- he misses racing with him, without any prompting. his heart feels like it's glowing, in response, and though Haru can't see it, so is his face (maybe Haru will intuit it, in the tone of his voice)]
You better not! It'll be good as new any day now, and you'll be sorry you ever wished me a speedy recovery. -- What's that got to do with anything, though?
... I want to swim. [ aka, get off the phone. he knows, he knows, Rin. he knows he has to get a job... it really ruins the eternal summer feel he had going. ]
...It feels kind of good to work on something with a group of people, for someone who cares a lot. [so, it's a team with a strong-minded captain; he actually likes it more than he'll ever admit to] I guess the customers can be kind of tiring. This one guy used to come sit in my section almost every day of the weekend, and he'd just give me crap the whole time he was there.

[eventually, he mumbles]
I can go with you, if you want. Since I applied for my job a long time before you.
[no, he can't seem to stop himself from putting that "I did it first" dig in, when asking his friend if he'd like his company]

Your wrist ...
[ he starts, wondering how to actually initiate this. but it would be his way of making everything right after that shake up. ]
Soon, I'd like to swim with you. I don't want to hold back.

Ch, like I'd be working in a cafe if we could do that!

Don't you get tired of it?
