Right after the school bell rings Haru jumps up, gathers his belongings, says bye to his tutor, and runs out of the building. Haru stopped at the entrance and saw it raining cats and dogs. Haru opens his backpack and gets out his small umbrella, he opens it then walks out in the rain. Haru walks and walks until he reaches his job, The Forever Love 25, a beautiful shop with the best clothes, Haru was very happy when he heard he got the job to be a sales clerk at this store, this shop had the most beautiful dresses he has ever seen. Haru walks in and goes to the employee section, he changes in his white pants, pink shirt, and light yellow apron with a little bird on it. He goes to the desk and starts selling clothes, greeting people when they come in until he sees his childhood bully Kai with a beautiful young lady, Kai and the beautiful woman come in. Haru quickly hides under the desk and then peeps out to check if their still here, and to his surprise the were. Haru tries his hardest to crawl over to the employee lounge until Kai calls his name.Haru quickly jumps up, Kai asks Haru " why are you crawling on the floor?" Haru quickly replies " I was just looking for a ring I dropped..." Kai suddenly gets a evil grin and says " Ha always trash, forever will be trash." Kai then walks up to the register with the pretty lady and says "what are you waiting for, are you gonna check us out?" Haru quickly walks over and scans their items, and put them in a bag. Kai puts his credit card in and snatches the bag. He was out saying to the pretty lady " he's the annoying neighbor when I was younger, his mom got murdered, but I think she killed herself." Haru heard it and walked to the bathroom and started crying. He felt like he really was a mistake, that he couldn't protect his own mom. Haru finishes his shift, changes, goes to the store to get stuff for dinner, checked out, and took the bus back home. Haru quickly runs up the stairs to his apartment and unlocks the door, he takes off his shoes and heads to his kitchen. He took out his groceries and started cooking his favorite food, Spicy crab sushi, once he was finished he headed to the living room. He suddenly drops his plate and sees his living room shattered, pieces of glass on his floor, he suddenly sees a brick with a note on it, it said " To the one who wants to explore the murder of his mom, STAY OUT OF OUR BUSINESS!" Haru quickly runs to the room where he had all his evidence of the murder, the whole room was DESTROYED, the papers he had were torn to shreds, his table and chair were broken, and the computer with all his files were completely destroyed.
