Attempting to start a new life after reform school shouldn't involve the Tokyo Manji Gang.
Nor should it involve all the bullshit you were suddenly dragged through.

Three Years Ago
In the short amount of time of knowing Kazutora before he got arrested, you two had developed a friendship that felt difficult to get rid of. No matter how many times you pissed each other off with your countless arguments, the next day everything was fine and no true feelings were hurt.
Something about him was intriguing, which of course your curiosity got the better of you. Coming from a troubled past yourself, you could tell he must have had a story that explained his behavior and attitude. One day you confronted him privately, asking straight-up questions regarding his family and past friends. He was bothered at first, offended even, but he gave you the answers in a nasty tone.
When you shared your own past with him, Kazutora wasn't as tense as he was before. He was less hesitant and skeptical about your reasoning of interrogating him, which you assume was the reason he got comfortable with you after that day. From then on, you would find yourself hanging out with Kazutora every now and then, just the two of you.
Back then you had other friends to hang out with that didn't involve your Toman brothers, mainly because they had their duos and would sometimes leave you out. Kazutora though, he would cancel anything if it meant going out taking risks with you. He eventually found fun in hopping trains, shoplifting from stores with asshole managers, pranking innocent bystanders on the street, and of course breaking traffic laws.
Then, there would be times like this, a calm and quiet atmosphere. You found yourselves at an empty park after shoplifting an afternoon snack from a convenience store. You're both laying at the bottom of the playgrounds slide, you were facing one way with your legs dangling over the side. Kazutora was closer to the edge and sitting the other way, so that you guys could have a clear view of the other.
"He said that?" Kazutora questions with a mouth full of chips.
Your hands are intertwined over your stomach, watching as the crumbs fall onto his shirt. "Yeah, I still don't know if he's joking."
"An all girls boarding school? Overseas? What did you do to make him so mad?!" Kazutora laughs, for he always finds enjoyment in hearing you and your brother's argument.
"He told me to surprise him with a new hair color, so I did. With two colors." You try mumbling the last part, but Kazutora easily heard you.
"Shiiit, guess he has a valid reason." His joke earned him a solid punch to the shoulder. "What?! I'm kidding, but maybe if you do go you'll come back and win money from a pageant."
You lean your head back and look up at the sky, noticing how fast the clouds were beginning to move in. You hug yourself after the sun is completely blocked out of view, taking away the warmth from the chilly day. "You seriously think that I could win a pageant?"
