A friendship formed between you and Garou ever since childhood. The bond grew stronger over the years, but you noticed how he turned into something different.

He wasn’t the abused little boy that he used to be. Now, he was basically a menace, but you ignore it despite how he behaves. You were the only one there for him in his life, and for that you were the only one who earned his trust.

Today was quite boring for you. Since Garou lived with you in your apartment, he would help around sometimes, but usually not. He spent most of his days, and today, going outside for “walks”, as he says.

Night washed over the sky. It was late until Garou arrived back at the apartment. You were laying on the couch watching TV, though the sound of the door opening caused you to look over.

You greet him casually. “Welcome back.”

He entered, but walked straight to his room, rather angrily, without even acknowledging you.
