The boy releases a long sigh and glanced at the sky for a moment, "well here's to another boring day".
His hair was dark like the shadows, his eyebrows where straighened but curled as if he had just got them stylised, his tracksuit jacket dyed in blue but mostly black and his expression was optimistic. The boy carried a shopping bag with a chunk of things such as milk, bread, soda, clips and others on one hand while the other tucked itself inside his pocket.
At that moment, when his leg reached to the top of the stairs, he paused himself without a single word popped out of his mouth and stared at the front direct his eyes were staring at. There was a man standing in front of the door that lead to his apartment, his hair was blond mixed brown, his age looked to be in his mid fortes and clothed in a gray suit with his phone getting ready to call someone.
The boy stood there in mid silent and thought to himself, "Hmm, who's here, maybe he's lawyer or something trying to find his relative".
He calmly walked his way towards him and inquired, "excuse me, are you looking for someone? if you are then I can help you find whoever is you're looking for".
The man turned his head towards his gaze with an awkward expression, "heyyyyyy, Chiaki right".
Chiaki looked at him while he's eyebrows sequin. It was obvious that Chiaki had never met nor seen a business man like this before, all of the people he knew so far were his former friends and classmates from his high school and collegue before he graduated and since then he had never spoken to anymore until this instant.
"Its a pleasure to meet you kiddo, I'm Hinata Tachikawa, a friend of your fathers". Hinata stated.
He nodded to him in response with his eyes widen slightly while eyebrow lifted itself up for a second. Although on his face he looked extremely normal like he was in his daily life but deep down inside he could feel something strange. From the minute the man spoked "a friend of your fathers" his heart began to tell him that was a complete lie, however Chiaki choose to ignore it until Hinata Tachikawa was finished.
"I'm sorry to disturb you on a daily basis" Hinata continued, "but there's a matter that I need to talk to you about regarding your father".
Chiaki's eyes widened while creating a large gasp. "what Is it? is my dad still alive or something".
Hinata began to laugh "ahahaha, if it were possible, but no it's actually a matter that your father owed a debt to me".
"A debt, I never heard him talk about it before," Chiaki whispered to himself.
"We'll you see, your father and I were very close friends until one day I found that he stole all of my savings that I needed to raise my poor and pitiful son"he covered his face with his two hands as if he cried in the worst acting in a play.
On the other hand, Chiaki's eyes were filled with concern "I'm so sorry, is there anything I can do to help".
Hearing what he said to him, Hinata all of the sudden went back to his normal self, "well, there is something that you could do, that is if you're willing to ".
"Of course, anything".
"alright then, how about you pay the amount that your father owes me in his stead" as he points to Chiaki up close.
Chiaki's heart started to panic a little while his head started thinking what to do.
"Unless, you rather spend the rest of your life being in debt in his place" as Hinata pretends to walk away.
Chiaki highered his voice to prevent him from leaving "I'll do it, name the price".
"$7 million" while Hinata turned around with a wicked smile.
