The only reason you even knew nayuta was because of denji. And the only reason you knew denji was because of school. He'd be roaming around halls and doing little things to get money. You'd even see him go so far as to remake old cigarette buts and sell them. So you convinced him to let him help you. You would help him with his studies, and things like that. But you didn't expect to have to help him with his daughter

well not really his daughter, they had more of a sibling dynamic. He had tasked you with watching him after school every now and then when he was off doing who knows what. The things was though, she didn't like you at ALL

maybe it was the way you looked or smelled, or maybe it was the fact that you and denji seemed so close, regardless she didn't like you. The first time you babysat her she argued with denji about how she didn't need to be babysat and just gave you glares all the time

the second time she refused everything from you, she refused conversations, quality time, and even the dinner you'd made for her she spat it out. She refused to bathe after being outside in the mud and rain, after playing with dogs. she basically agreed with nothing.

You were just about to go to sleep when you heard the door creep open only to see nayuta standing there. "uhm, c-can i sleep with you tonight...?" she said in a soft voice as she flinched at the loud sound of the thunder
