One bowl of tea on rice, pickled plums, silvered nori, and leftover chicken from dinner. Doused in piping hot water, then shoveled in with salted kelp... The faint image of it rested in the back of my mind as I stumbled into that large ditch.

Part of me craved the comfort of it, but those times are long gone. All those bowls of tea on rice I'd sneak into the kitchen to make at the orphanage.

Falling onto my knees, I looked up to the sunset. It really was beautiful, its color reflecting onto the soft flow of the river. I really am going to die of starvation huh?

I don't want to die... I'm not going to die! I told myself over and over again. I have not even a cent to my name, so I have no choice but to steal and take from others!

Faint flashbacks of the orphanage staff still haunt me. "No orphanage would ever welcome the likes of you!" they would shout at me, before throwing me out, leaving me to fend for myself in this cruel world.

"Shut up, shut up, shut up!" I yelled, clenching my fists. I couldn't let them win, I wouldn't let them have their way. "Die in a ditch? I'm not gonna die! I'm gonna live, no matter what it takes. Alright, I'll attack the first person who comes along and rob them of everything they have!"
