The Child From The Yakuza
"...Has anyone visited me besides him?"
"Hmmm, looks like there isn't one yet." Said the wife of the landlord gently.
"Ah~ I see, huh...." Yoshimura said in reply to the owner's wife's words in an unenthusiastic tone.
The expected answer.
Then the landlord's wife also lightly patted Yoshimura's shoulder and put on a gentle smile so Yoshimura wouldn't worry too much, "Don't worry! Surely later those who know will visit you too, you who have been fighting to help a girl are a good person and they will not ignore you."
In Yoshimura's heart who hesitated to accept those words said, "Why do they still call me a good person?"
....
As soon as those who visited this already felt Yoshimura was fine, they were about to leave the room. Yoshimura had to rest, and later in the afternoon the landlord's wife would visit him again.
They left to give Yoshimura time to rest.
Shortly after they left, the nurse came with some food from the hospital clinic. He served it in front of Yoshimura. Of course, the food at the hospital was tasteless so bland that she was tearing up and didn't want to eat it. However, it couldn't be helped, his stomach was still empty so while he was fighting for his recovery, he had to eat a lot.
He is grateful to be alive again, which means he is still given the opportunity to live his version of a free life.
....
As soon as he finished eating, he placed the soup bowl and rice plate on the small cupboard to his right. He sat for a moment in a sitting position, staring at the dazzling hospital window, his head a little dizzy at the glare of the sun rising from the east... which was starting to rise upwards.
Once he had started to feel bored, he finally chose to fall asleep for a while.
He did not feel free here, he was still thinking about the fate of the girl who was truant, but he knew his current state if he was still sick, he couldn't just run away.
It's better to sleep as much as possible.
He expected the girl to return to his side when he woke up.
As he fell asleep, he remembered the atmosphere of his previous home....
It was the scene before Yoshimura left for Osaka.
He is the son of a Yakuza.
