You were still on his bed nodding when he finished his story, Tomura looked so ashamed

"Tomura, it seems like you're most hung up on the fact you wouldn't apologize to Mika." you said

"I mean, I don't really care about what happened to the guy, but Mika wanted to help, but then the teachers did nothing and I got mad at her and-"

So that girl didn't run away because of how his face looked, she ran away because he screamed at her and scared her, how could he have forgotten that, maybe it was easier to blame the thing that always seemed to be the issue, but no, it was him this time, not his face but what he said. He didn't go to her to ask for the homework assignment that day, he was going to apologize.

"Tomura?" you asked

"I just remembered something." He said "I messed up, I got the facts wrong."

"What do you mean?"

"This whole time, I thought the girl who ran away from me was because she was scared of my face, but I scared her with my words."

"Tomura, trauma can sometimes mess with our memories." you said "you did try to go and apologize to her, that's all you can do, did you ever try to talk to her again."

"No, I didn't think she would ever want to talk to me again, and she never did." he said, "no one did after that."

"Tomura, it's a good sign that you do feel bad about what you did." You said, "Bad people don't care if they hurt someone or not."

"Well I don't feel bad about hurting Hiro, so does that make me a bad person?" he asked

"I don't think you are a bad person, but it's up to you to decide if you want to be a good person," you said

"I just want to be able to go outside again, but I can barely even do that."

"That's why I'm here." you said, "look we will figure this out together okay."

Tomura just nodded his head and Panchan leaped down and brushed against Tomuras' leg, Tomura leaned down to give him a head pat. "Would you like to try and go out today or are you too emotionally exhausted and want to stay here?"

"I want to stay here." Tomura said, "how much longer can you stay?"

"We have half an hour next, you want to play some video games?"

"Sure but I won't go easy on you." He said

"Good." you said

The large red signs of K.O popped up on the screen as Tomura character bar hit zero

"How are you good at this?" Tomura asked gripping the controller

"OH Tomura I've been doing this for five years and a lot of my clients play video games, they have taught me the ways of the combo moves," you said as Panchan was curled up next to Tomura. Only for your phone to go off.

"Does that mean you have to go?"

"Sorry but yes, still I have an idea." you said, setting the controller down "how about you watch Panchan till my shift is over?"
"What?"

"If you don't want to I understand but you two seem to get along, and it would save me time, if you don't want to you don't have to-"

"No ill do it, are you sure you trust me with him?" Tomura asked

"I do." you said, giving him a smile "it will only be for four hours."

"I can handle it." Tomura said, picking up Panchan and putting him on his lap, "I know how dogs work."

"That's great!" you said, then standing up and grabbing your purse "I'll be back in four hours."

"Sounds good," Tomura said, putting all his attention on Panchan, as he heard you leave, he got up still holding Panchan, and locked the door, your dog still wagging his tail. "So Panchan got any secrets?"

"Arf."

"I see well, let me show you something then." Tomura said, setting the dog down and going under his bed and pulling out a cardboard box "I think you will like them."

"Arf."

Tomura opened the box and pulled out a dog collar that had the tag 'Monchan' on it, he gave a small smile before putting it back in and taking out a red rubber ball, Panchan was wagging his tail

"Here catch." Tomura said tossing it up only for it to bounce off Panchans head, as Panchan then chased after it, shaking his head back and forth, Tomura was laughing as he continued to look through that box he stuffed under his bed so long ago, all Tomura wished was that he could have seen Monchan at their last moments.

Panchan dropped the ball at Tomuras' feet and nudging it towards him with his nose, he picked it up and threw it towards the kitchen as Panchan chased after it, maybe one day he could get a dog and play fetch with it in the park, maybe you would be there with Panchan as well. Tomrua kept playing with Panchan for a while till he heard a knock on the door. Did you come back early? It wasn't even four hours yet, were you regretting leaving him Panchan and you came back early because you were so anxious. A louder knock on the door snapped him out of his thoughts as he went over, Panchan sniffing the front before running off.

"What your owner is here to pick you up." Tomura said as he opened the door, but he didn't see you, he saw a mans' face who he didn't think would ever come back.

"Father...what are you doing here?" Tomura asked

"Hello Tomura." He said his arms crossed

"I mean...Mr, Shimura why are you here?" He asked again, as he picked at his knuckles, Panchan started barking at Kotaro.

"What is this, you got yourself a dog? And here I thought you couldn't even take care of yourself." He said

"It-it isn't mine, he isn't mine, it's a friend." Tomura said, "I'm looking after him."
"I'm surprised you have a friend...close enough to you to trust you to look after their dog." Kotaro said "The same breed as Monchan?"

Tomura wanted to punch him in the face for that comment, how dare he bring up his childhood dog who he wouldn't even let him see during their last moments.

"Yes, same breed," Tomura said, as Panchan started growling,Kotaro took a step back

"Well not as well trained as Monchan." Kotaro said

"Enough about the dog, why are you here?" Tomura said, there is no way this "man" would come by to just check up on him, Tomura could feel the familiar feeling of warm blood dripping down his finger from the picking.
