Summary
It's been a decade since the Phantom Thieves of Hearts disbanded, and Ren's life is going well -- he's got a new job in Tokyo, he's reconnecting with his old friends, and he's starting to get a handle on mourning the life he used to lead and the boy he couldn't save. When he runs into a stranger who's eerily similar to Akechi Goro, however, everything starts to split at the seams.
Or, Amamiya Ren buys cheap coffee at the wrong place, at the wrong time, and all the grief he's tried to pack up and ignore comes back with a vengeance.

Summary
At ten years old, Akechi Goro had accepted that he would probably spend the rest of his life without ever being loved. He spent his days alone with a mother who didn't really want him, yet he loved her nonetheless. And then Ren appeared—a ghost with no memories of his past, and the only person who stayed by Goro's side even through the killing and destruction of lives. But everything cannot stay the same forever. When Goro encounters Ren's doppelganger going by the name Kurusu Akira, and the heart-changing group known as The Phantom Thieves of Hearts, everything around him starts to crumble. While Ren remains, Goro feels the universe is determined to break them apart.
Ren only remembers two things: a task that he has to do no matter what and the words If only we had met earlier. Knowing nothing about what any of those things meant, Ren latches on to the only thing he does know: Akechi Goro. But keeping his promise to stay by Goro's side becomes increasingly difficult when it slowly becomes clear that his memories may hold a horrible truth about his existence and why he's here.

Summary
What do people normally do when finding out that their favorite barista—at the café they frequent often enough to rival their home—was moon-shining the biggest japan idol at night?

He had to get this assignment in before tonight. And he’d assumed the girls before him at the register, handing the barista a hot pink, teddy bear endowed rose. with a flushed face and shaky hands was just a coincidence.
"That's him!” he catches bits of conversation from the girls earlier, lingering by the drink pick up station. “Kurusu-san, I can’t believe he’d work here!”
In his small refuge corner of have, after class, he does a quick google search. His tiny respite of peace during Valentines is shattered by the fact that his barista is—
Akira Kurusu. Net worth 3 billion. He used to see his face every year on New years TV, through business meetings with his dad.
