No one's pov

Katou haru is a normal boy living a normal life,his mother is a housewife while his father is a detective. They live happily in a happy environment neighborhood.....sike.

Haru might still be a child -6 years old to be exact- but he's not stupid. He's not stupid to see the look their neighbours send them when they walk out of the house especially toward his mother. The would glance at them -to be exact his mother- and whisper among each other,hatred and disgust could be seen in their eyes. Haru's not stupid to not notice the fake smile their neighbours send them when they greet them a good morning or send some food that his mother cook for dinner but too much. He's not stupid to see the pity on their eyes when they talk to him. The pity in their eyes when they talked to his father. He sometime even heard the neighbors talk about his father. Saying:

"Mr.katou is a great man. What a pity he's married with a slut"

What's a slut? Why would they say that about his father?

He's 6 years old but he's not stupid.

But nonetheless he's still a kid,a kid that currently confuse as to why the neighbors always send them that look? Look full of disgust and hatred. What did they do for them to send them that look? He don't understand.

His mother is kind,gently,always smile and never settle things with a fight. She's a great woman and haru's happy and proud to have her as his mother. But why didn't they neighbors like her?

He don't understand.

A year has passed and he's now 7 years old. He still don't understand why they neighbors hate his mother so much. Feeling unsatisfied that he still can't get any answer he decide to ask his mother.

That night after his birthday party that many came but haru don't feel happy or excited at all. Cause that look,that look is still on the adult eyes. He hate that look. Hate it that the adult look at his beautiful mother like that.

"Ma?"

Haru meekly called and peek up from behind the kitchen counter. His mother is currently cooking some dinner for his father that come back home late.

"Yes dear?"

She gently answer while turning off the stove. Finish with cooking dinner for her husband. She took off the apron before she put it aside and turn around where she heard her son called her. A smile on her face.

"Something wrong dear?"

She ask when haru stay quiet,still peeking from the kitchen counter making he internally cooed. His son is so cute!

"Did you do something wrong?"

Haru innocently asked,his big honey eyes stare up to his mother that suddenly froze at the question. Not expecting that kind of question.

"Why are you saying that dear?"

Haru tell her,tell her everything that he know. And little haru regret that.

Because just after he told her that,his mother eyes widen before it soften and a sad smile on his mother face. No,he hate that smile. His mother gently kneel down beside him and open her arms and he without any second to wait pounce his mother in a hug. He was about to apologize for making her sad when his mother beat him to it. She cry on haru's shoulder saying how sorry she is,over and over again.

And little haru don't understand why.

But his little heart break,he don't like seeing his mother cry. No no his mother was suppose to be happy not sad. He don't like it. He don't like this.
He don't want his mother crying. No no no!
