"I'll be waiting for you, even if it takes a lot of years!" - Jiro Nakada

On one fine day, Jiro asked the kids in the playground if he could play with them, "Yeah sure, you can play with us", one of the kids told him, but then suddenly as Jiro was about to start playing with them, the kid moved closer to Jiro then suddenly pushes him hard that he fell on his back.

"Ow, that hurts", Jiro said while groaning in pain.

"Ha! Good for you! I really didn't want to play with you, you're a loser! You don't have a dad!", the kid who pushed him shouted.

"You're a loser... You don't have a dad.. You don't have a dad..." those sentences echoed inside Jiro's mind and starts to cry.

When Jiro was 4 years old, his parents started to argue almost everyday...

(Flashback)

"Well, I'm done, I'm sick of this stuff, I'm tired of this arguing everyday, I just don't care anymore, I'll just leave to stop this." said Jiro's Dad who was annoyed,

"Fine! I'm also tired of this, leave if you want! I also don't care anymore, I don't care about you anymore!" Jiro's Mom angrily said.

When Jiro's Dad was outside their house waiting for a taxi cab, Jiro rushed to his father and said, "Dad, can't you just stay here? Can you please not leave anymore? then he starts to cry.

Jiro's Dad kneels down, wipes Jiro's tears and then holds Jiro by his shoulders and said, "I'm so sorry Jiro, Daddy really has to go...

"Well then, I'll go with you", Jiro quickly replied.

"Sigh, you have to stay with your mom Jiro", his father said in a soft sad voice, "Because sometimes in life there are stuff that sometimes don't go together well."

Then he holds both of Jiro's hands."Please do me a favor Jiro, take good care of your mother for me, ok?", Jiro's Dad asked.

"Oh...O-ok", Jiro sadly replied while wiping off his tears.

"Don't worry Jiro, your mom will take really good care of you", Jiro's Dad said to comfort Jiro. Then Jiro's Dad sighed and said, "Well, I'm going now Jiro, be a good boy, ok?" then stands up.

"Ok Dad", Jiro replied and quickly gives his Dad a hug. "I love you Dad, I'll miss you, thanks for everything." then both Jiro and his Dad starts to cry.

"I love you too Jiro, I'll also miss you, thank you too for everything and you're welcome." Jiro's Dad replied as tears roll down on his face while hugging Jiro.

After hugging each other his Dad said "Goodbye Jiro", before going inside the taxi cab. And both waves goodbye till the taxi cab disappears slowly in the street.

"Good bye Jiro",were the last words he had heard from his father and it was also the last time he saw him.

After his dad left him and his mother, they then lived with his aunt, Aunt Mari and his cousin, Ryuu.

And two years after his dad left, they heard news that his father died in a car accident.

(Flashback ends)

"Hey look! He's also a crybaby!", one of the friends of the kid who pushed him said, "Haha! Crybaby!" both of them shouted at him.

Then the kid who pushed him held him up by his shirt and said, "Look, nobody likes to play with you! Nobody likes you! And nobody will ever like you!" then he throws him down. Then they continued bullying him.
