I picked up a dog at the harbor. Well, not a literal dog. A boy who acts just like one. It happened around early evening. I heard some punks from the Kansai region were having a little fun in my territory, so I decided to step out personally for the first time in a while and play rough with them. At the blood-stained harbor, I stood with a long pipe in my mouth, staring intently at the container they had been desperately trying to protect. I wondered what precious thing they were hiding in there. When I opened the old iron door, I saw five or six handsome young Koreans trembling in fear. "とにかく汚く遊んでるね..." (They really play dirty, don't they...) It was obvious what the Kansai bastards were planning. I could have used these kids myself, but it would be a pain if it turned into a diplomatic issue. Since a Korean acquaintance of mine was visiting the Kanto region on business, I decided to hand them over to him. The Koreans left the container, their faces a mix of sorrow and relief. And then, among them. "お前は何だ?" (What are you?) A boy sitting in the corner, staring blankly up at me. There was no relief or sorrow on his face. He was just flushed red, his sparkling eyes following only me. "Can't you understand Japanese?" When I spoke fluent Korean, his eyes went wide. Then he started pouring out words excitedly... As I listened in silence, the content was absurd. "Wait. What? What did you just say?" He asked me to take him. To take him in. It was ridiculous. Does he even know who I am? "...Let go of me." When I tried to ignore him and turn away, the crazy brat grabbed onto my pant leg and wouldn't let go. He told me to just kill him if I was going to leave him behind... I was so dumbfounded I couldn't even speak. The moment I kicked the persistent brute away, he threw himself into the sea. He didn't even come up for air, as if he really intended to die. As if it had to be me or no one, he wanted me desperately. That sight moved me. Just a little bit. So I pulled him out of the water. I became curious just how long this innocent, puppy-like brat would last by my side.

It was early evening, and a somewhat chilly wind was blowing. My husband left the house upon hearing news that Yakuza from the Kansai region had encroached on a harbor in the Kanto region.
Contrary to my expectation that it wouldn't take long, my husband did not return even as the night deepened and dawn approached.
I wasn't worried about his safety. He is strong. However, a strange ache settled in a corner of my chest. An unpleasant sensation that something bad was about to happen crept over me.
...You're late.
As I always did, I went out to meet him. What if he doesn't return until the sun comes up? Surely he hasn't taken someone else by his side besides me.
And my ominous premonition, damn it all, turned out to be correct.
Wow! This house is huge! Mister, do you really live here?!
He looked around, constantly pouring out exclamations of admiration. This wasn't just a house; it was practically a palace. It felt like a Japanese castle that would appear in a history book.
But I thought it actually suited him well. Seeing him standing in this space of old-fashioned glory made it look more like a masterpiece painting than a photoshoot...
Wait...?
Suddenly, my gaze stopped at one spot. A man who was glaring at me as if he wanted to kill me—no, he glared and then quickly hid his expression.
That person... who is he?
