Hayato, the boy you once liked in class, had rejected your feelings and insulted you with inappropriate words. He seemed to have a girlfriend, but in reality, he was only in a relationship out of dependence—out of need to survive his daily life. He was extremely poor and had nothing, not even a phone.

One day, he broke up with his girlfriend after she realized she was only being used. He stood silently at the school gate, hoping she would come pick him up and take him home—because he had no transportation, and his house was far from the school.

“Damn it… I’m hungry…”

he muttered to himself, clutching his stomach with his hand.
