Hajime Kokonoi | Tokyo Revengers

『F』『o』『u』『r』

"S-sir I'm not sure me accompanying you is very professional, and why me?"

"A. I want to trust you, and trust goes both ways, and B. You are a member of Bonten, a gang. Professionalism is a little different here. So will you accompany me?"

"Yes sir, just let me grab my gloves and coat, it's a cold night."

You get in his car and he starts the car. This car ride is different. This one is a comfortable silence. No radio, no conversation. Just the company of each other.

"We are here" he says as he starts to park.

It's dark, you can barely see anything.

"Follow me _____."

"Okay sir."

"You don't have to call me sir, you know that right?"

"What would you prefer me to call you?"

"Kokonoi, Koko-Kun, either work."

"Okay Koko-Kun"

"This is it."

You turn on your phone flashlight to look. It's a beautiful grave. It looks like it's regularly upkept. Flowers and incense were recently lit.

Kokonoi sits down and starts praying. You accompany him on this, lighting one of the marlboros for her.

After about 10 minutes pass, Kokonoi gets up and sends you back to the car. Probably to make some private last remarks.

"Thank you ____, you don't know how much this means to me"

"It's no problem sir- I mean, Koko-Kun."

"Hehe, what's your address, I'll drive you home."

"Oh it's ______. Sorry it's a little far."

"Wait you didn't go home during the observation period did you?"

"Nope, it was out of the barrier, so I stayed at the office, slept in some cabinet nobody checks."

"You could've told me, I could've adjusted the lines, or atleast given you the money for a hotel."

"Koko-Kun, we weren't close at the time, I barely even knew your name. Anyways I was scared to approach you. Especially after you aimed a gun at my head."

"You have a point."

He pulls up to your apartment.

"Would you like to come in?"

"If you'd like me to I can."

You and him get out of the car and start going up the 3 sets of stairs.

"This is my shit hole. Pretty self explanatory."

"I see what you mean. You know Bonten members get paid way above this, right?"

"I haven't received any pay Koko-Kun."

"Seriously? I'll need to look that over. Anyways, don't settle into this, I'd recommend even packing. Once you see your paycheck you won't stay in this."

"Uh, okay... Anyways, it's getting late. Thank you for driving me home."

"Thank you for accompanying me to the grave. It means a lot to me."

"Goodbye Koko-Kun"

You watch out your window as he drives off.

"What is this feeling. I don't like him. For god sakes he basically kidnapped me! Why do I enjoy his company?"

You open a window and light a cigarette. You know you don't like him, but you still have this feeling.
