Watching heaven's busking session has became a part of my night routine.

School is fast approaching, so I amuse myself by watching him perform.

I'll probably still go there even when there's school.

I went first to a convenience store to buy some soda.

Maybe it'll cool me down from the warmth of his voice.

As I walk towards his usual spot, I can already hear a familiar voice singing.

Shit, he started already!

So I ran as fast as I can while holding the soda in my hand.

To my relief, the song has just started.

He's singing there with his eyes closed, wearing a plaid button-down shirt with his usual black jeans and boots.

I stared at him for the whole time he's singing.

I admired his features while his eyes remain closed.

I didn't notice the song ended until he opened his eyes.

Then there it is, the smile that I was waiting for.

I can't help but to smile to.

He never forgets to bow to the audience like the respectful man he is.

While everyone else is leaving and I am here still watching him, a woman approached him.

Wearing a slim white button-down shirt, high-waisted slacks, and sandals.

She looks like an office worker or something.

I badly suck at lip reading so I don't know what the hell are they talking about.

I just know he is happy when a smile flashed on his face.

The woman offered a handshake and said some more words.

He accepted her hand and repeatedly bowed at her.

Soon after, the woman gave him a small card then she left.

The smile on his face is still evident even when the woman was no longer there, even when he began to pack his things.

The curiosity is killing me.

I wonder what made him smile like that.
