Reason to be a Hero Once Again - Fugou Keiji (eng ver)

Katou Haru

Katou Haru sits alone after his parents' funeral is over. Attended by many groups due to their popularity and kindness, not a few came to mourn.

After the father's departure, followed by his mother, Haru, who is an only child, no longer has any relatives. He doesn't know where to live and with whom.

At that time, Haru was 10 years old. He knew he was old enough, but what could a 10 year old boy have? He is still innocent, has not been properly educated, so he has not tried to work. His only family has now left before him. It was painful and sad, but Haru couldn't do anything if fate had said that. Haru didn't want to be a burden to his parents anymore.

At least Haru knew that his parents were kind and cared for by many groups and people.

Kambe Daisuke, who was forced to attend the mourning of an acquaintance of his family, was finally free from this important event and set foot into a large garden filled with a small pond. While breathing the fresh air after being tired in the room, Daisuke felt his soul come back to life. He turned around, and realized he was not alone.

A boy, perhaps his age, lowered his head and turned his back. He only wore a white shirt while his black coat was draped over his shoulders. Daisuke found the child so thin and shabby, as if he had been neglected at all.

Curious, Daisuke stepped closer. Until he arrived behind the boy, there was no sign that he was noticed. Daisuke also moved in front of the boy, and still saw him lower his head. The boy's eyes are empty, lifeless.

Usually any child, even his classmates, did not succeed in making him so curious. He wanted to know why his eyes were so empty, why he was so worn, thin and dirty as if he didn't care anymore for the world around him to move while he was still so silent.

"Like the dead." Daisuke muttered in his heart.

Unfortunately, Daisuke didn't like that. Daisuke wanted to know, what kind of boy in front of him.

"I'm Daisuke."

His words made the boy seem to wake up. He raised his head to look at Daisuke. Daisuke could see that there were large bags under his eyes.

"I'm Daisuke. You?"

The boy blinked before making a sound.

"Haru."

His voice was hoarse, and Daisuke felt uneasy about it. Daisuke unconsciously felt worried and worried for the child.

"Why are you here, Haru?"

Haru lowered his head again.

"I don't know where to go anymore." Daisuke blinked, before he understood what he meant.

This mourning event is an acquaintance of the Kambe family, and this is the only child left by two people who are quite liked by the Kambe family. Daisuke heard that apart from his kind and passionate parents, his son also had the same traits.

They lived so happily, and unfortunately, Daisuke had to meet the boy when things were no longer happy.

Daisuke was standing beside him. "Can I sit here?"

Haru didn't answer, but Daisuke knew the boy didn't mind. Daisuke sat down, before leaning his shoulder against Haru's. This treatment made Haru turn to him.

"I don't know what I can do for you, but if you will, I want to be your friend."

Haru blinked at what Daisuke said to him. "Why?"

Daisuke who blinked now. "I have no friends."

Daisuke, who seems to be opening up to a boy like Haru, makes Haru curious.
