“Is that all?” Yuka responded as she looked absentmindedly at the sky. She seemed so calm, that it made me think I dreamed whatever happened back then and we were just getting out of the car. “Yeah… pretty much.” “Good, I’ll go grab my bag.” “Wait, just like that.” She was not even surprised at my proposition, has everyone gone crazy inside this house? I ran here after Makiba went upstairs, going over this conversation inside my head a hundred times trying to figure out the best way to explain it without looking suspicions. Yet, she just listened to the whole story, minus the part about the free rent, and did not ask a single question. “I just want to go back home kid.” I was half expecting her to oppose the arrangement; it was my last hope at getting out of this situation without feeling bad about it. “Doesn’t this sound weird to you?” “Absolutely, I get creeped out thinking I was in a car alone with someone th

“Matsubara-san please, we need to talk about this first.” “We already talked on the phone. I need to be back before nine, to be honest I am already running late.” “But can’t you just…" Wearing a full suit, a man who looked my age poked his head from the other side of the door and stopped as soon as he noticed they were not alone. Somehow, his gentle face and pointy nose seems familiar. “Goodnight, you must be Akari-chan, nice to meet you. And you are…” He looked directly at me for several minutes. “You live on the apartments above the candy store right. I knew your uniform seemed familiar, my name is Makiba Jouji, your landlord’s grandson.” He politely offered me his card as I avoided looking into his eyes, ashamed at the fact that I did not even remember my landlord’s name. Written with golden letters below his name you could read Guidance Center Special Consultant. “Nice to meet you, I am Taoyama Naruki.”

“I hope it is not too hot in here. Turning on the air conditioner always makes me kinda sick.” “No, it is ok.” After seeing me cry and collapse in the middle of the street, Yuka refused to let me go back home and forced me inside of her car. Apparently, we are now going towards Boss house twenty minutes away from here. “Taoyama-san… right? How did you meet Shinji?” Still sounding rather annoyed, the stoic Yuka tried to start a conversation and break the awkward silence between us. The fact that this is my first time alone in a car with a woman and the shock from earlier, are making it very hard to breathe in here. “I have been coming to eat ramen to his shop almost once a week for the past year. We somehow became really close over time.” Stating such simple and superficial reasons really makes me think I should not be going to his house right now. “I cannot imagine Shinji making ramen, but at least that stupid shop made him a f

“Thanks for your work.” “See you tomorrow.” The hot suffocating wind of May caresses my cheek, almost making me wish I could stay a couple more hours at my job. Spending six hours inside the convenience store, with the air conditioner at max power and the calm of a Tuesday, clientless morning, made me forget we were in the middle of the summer. If you ask any young person, being free after 5:00 PM during a weekday would be glorious. It would mean they could spend the rest of the afternoon having fun; going shopping to the practically empty stores, enjoying a movie with the cinema almost to myself or having a drink with my friends at a bar. Sadly, I am not your average young person; I am a 25 year-old good-for-nothing single male, with no friends and no money. Being free so early means that I have to spend the rest of the day all by myself and I hate myself. “If I go home now, I will end up taking a nap and then I won’t be able to sleep at night.”
