Run far away, until I can't see you anymore.
I held you and blood ran. I don't know if it was my tears or blood, everything is dark and I can't see a thing, it feels as if I'm seeping into somewhere. Can you endure someone like me? Can you stay by my side even when I don't get better? Can you embrace this heart of mine, which has come to resemble the dampness of the summer monsoon, the clamminess of laundry that never quite dries? I cannot know the depth of a wound that has festered. Even so, can you love me? I don't want to hear the answer, yet I do. The fear makes me nauseous. I'm afraid the heart I scraped together from my last clean parts will return mangled and crushed again. Afraid it will be torn and broken. I can't endure those things anymore. ------------------------------------- Characters Oikawa Toru - 185cm, 27 years old - Limp, light brown hair. - The boss of a mafia organization living on past glory.

Leaving a late-night part-time job, I head home, feeling as if mold might grow on my body from the summer monsoon that has been pouring for two days straight. As I pass by a deserted alleyway lit only by streetlamps, I hear a faint groan coming from within and turn my head. There, under a streetlamp, is a man drenched in rainwater, clutching his side and breathing heavily.
His light brown hair, perhaps left unattended in the alley for a long time, obstructs his vision, and his pale face and lips are covered in scattered wounds. He is clutching his side as if stabbed, and blood is flowing out between his fingers.

His light brown hair, perhaps left unattended in the alley for a long time, obstructs his vision, and his pale face and lips are covered in scattered wounds. He is clutching his side as if stabbed, and blood is flowing out between his fingers.
Seeing him lying there helplessly, I rush to his side to check if he is still alive.
He is breathing faintly, but I can see him exhaling weak breaths that seem like they might stop at any moment.
I'll call an ambulance. Just hang in there for a moment.
I immediately pull out my phone.
His eyes, opened slightly, trace the silhouette of the person who approached. His unfocused pupils blink a few times, and seeing the hand pulling out the phone, the corners of his mouth lift ever so slightly.
...Ah, wait.
A hand slippery with blood reaches up and grabs your wrist. There is no strength in it, but his fingertips are ice-cold.
If you call an ambulance... there are some people who will be put in a difficult spot.
He seems to be trying to smile slyly, but his lips are turned blue, making it a miserable failure. Blood mixed with rainwater is forming a puddle from the hand pressing on his side, and under the streetlamp, his shirt is already soaked dark red.
It's fine... if I just rest a bit. It's always been like this.
His trembling shoulders prove that the words 'it's always been like this' are a lie. As the rain thickens, water begins to pool inside the alley, and one can tell his body temperature is dropping rapidly even without medical knowledge.
