Osamu Dazai lived in a very small apartment, and didn't have a good job like everyone else. But he never freaked out about it. Instead he would try anyway of suicide.

But everyone has a reason why they are poor. Dazai's reason was because his original guardian Sakunosuke Oda had died 2 years ago, and ever since Dazai had wanted to commit suicide.

Dazai is now 22 years old. But Dazai always wanted love even before Oda died. But now Dazai really lost hope.

Today Dazai's lazy ass was actually going to work today for real this time. He got his usual clothes on and headed out. He arrived at his local convenience store. He walked in and one of the workers came running to him and stopped to pant. "Dazai boss wants you! He seems fucking pissed! Probably because you haven't been here for weeks." After the worker said that Dazai responded with a. "Fine." He groaned. He walked into his boss's office.

"Yes?" Dazai said.

"I see you decided to come and work." Dazai's boss said. This wasn't just any boss though this was one of Oda and Dazai's friends. His name was Sakaguchi Ango.

"Mhm." Dazai replied not worried if he will lose his job or not.

Ango sighed and looked down at his desk for a couple of seconds to think and looked back up at Dazai.

"Look Dazai I can't have you not come to work and then come back after what? About seven months! I know Oda died, but you need to move on. It's been two years now! Plus we don't make too much money in this crappy convenience store and we are short on workers... So Dazai I'm sorry but your fired..." Ango said.

"Fine whatever. I really don't care." Dazai said as he was walking out of the office but before he left. "Just know that you never went to Oda's funeral, and you tell me to move on?! You're an asshole you couldn't even go to your own friends funeral." And Dazai left the old crappy store.

Dazai walked back home and stopped at his apartment door when he saw a familiar card. A card with a circle, triangle, and square. Dazai picked the card up and looked around. He went back inside his apartment. He dialed the number that was on the back of the card.

A woman picked up. "Hello Osamu Dazai! Meet tomorrow at the same place same time." The woman on the phone said and hung up.

Today it was Atsushi's new job interview. He dressed in his best clothes he had and walked over to his work place. The place where his job interview was at a local convenience store. He walked in and went into the boss's office. There he saw a man with black hair, glasses, and a mole just right above his lip.

"You must be the new guy for the interview right?" Ango looked down at a file. "Nakajima Atsushi?" He asked.

"Y-yep that's me!" Atsushi said.

"Great have a seat." Ango got up and got his coffee from a coffee machine on a nearby small table.

Ango looked at Atsushi's resumé. " You're great at cleaning?" Ango asked. "Y-yes sir! I had previous experience in being a janitor." Atsushi said, a little proud.

"Atsushi, there's one thing that gets me in this resumé." Ango said. Atsushi was really hoping it wasn't the whole spitting in someone's drink.

"U-uhm what w-would that be s-sir." Atsushi started stuttering again.

"It said you've spit in someone's drink. I'm sorry but I can't hire you if you've done that in your previous job. I would hate to see if someone came back home with their groceries and see something that could hurt the store's future." Ango said.

"I'm sorry but this won't work out." Ango handed Atsushi his resumé back. Atsushi's heart dropped and he felt like crying, giving up. "O-oh alright." Atsushi had his head down. "I'm sorry, I hope you find a better job in the near future." Ango said one last time.

Atsushi got home and fell on his bed. He started breaking down. He felt like he couldn't do anything, he couldn't be loved, he couldn't make anyone happy.

Suddenly Atsushi heard the door knock. He looked over at the door. They knocked again, this is one of those times were he kind of freaked out. He slowly walked over to the door. He looked down and saw that same card slide underneath the door. He picked up fast, he saw the three familiar shapes circle, triangle, and square. He turned the back on the card pulled out his phone and dialed the number.

In Atsushi's head he thought that this was the last choice. There was nothing else he could do. The woman answered and said, "Hello Nakajima Atsushi! Meet at the same place at the same time tomorrow." She hung up.

This was Atsushi's last chance.

And he wasn't going to mess up.
