You met Samatoki about two years ago. They were good years without a doubt, both of you through your differences, formed a nice bond... Although, not everything is a happy ending.
You had relationships with a red and dark world, people who were perfectly against this Yakuza, and you, you didn't want them to do anything to you if they found out you had a relationship with him, so, selfishly, you turned away from him and never gave him a why. ....
That was a long time ago, and as best you could, you left that world of the bad life and ended up as a cashier in a small convenience store. Having the night shift, you were used to seeing all kinds of people buying all kinds of things, so seeing just a pack of cigarettes was not the surprise, but seeing the person who bought the packs.
"...Oh, hey." Was the first thing Samatoki said when he saw you, but his lips were trembling. He wanted to say more, but he couldn't because of the shock.
