Atsushis pov :
"This is gonna sound really cheese . I was once him I guess . I left the orphanage and started stealing . It was a rush something I'll never forget "
"What made you stop.?"
"When Dazai and kunikida found me I was above to rob Dazai but he was in the river . They were to nice and I gave in "
"And if they hadn't have found you "
"I'd probably be dead by now "
They get in and Atsushi sits at his desk .
He stares at the apple .
It's gone all brown and mushy where he took a bite .
He throws it in the bin .
He turns around to everyone gathered around Yosano .
She was showing then a video of Atsushi talking to the boy .
He sits back down hoping they wouldn't make a big deal .
Then he hears the conversation that had just occurred between the two .
"You were gonna Rob me ? Atsushi how could you ?"
"Dazai I didn't know you yet calm down "
Dazai is on the floor hding his chest pretend sobbing .
Kunikida walks over him .
"You were stealing ?"
"Yeah I guess . Sorry "
"How long did it last ?"
"A few weeks "
"What did you steal ?"
Kenji stands behind Atsushi.
"Nothing much . Just drinks and um that's it "
"You didn't get food ?"
"No I guess not "
"How long were you out heir for ?"
"A few days 7 at most "
"You didn't eat for 7 days ?"
"No it wasn't that bad I forgot after 3 days . I think I started hallucinating though ?"
"Your eating now right ? "
He looks at Kenji .
"Yeah of course don't want that happening again "
He pulls at his collar smiling .
Everyone goes back to what they were doing .
He finished work a few hours later .
He walked home after getting more pills from the shop .
He opens his door to kunikida , Yosano , Dazai and the president in his living room .
"Where have you been ?"
"I um walked a different root "
"Sit down Atsushi "
The four surround him .
"Empty your pockets please "
He does as hes told .
His phone , paper and the pills fall out .
Kunikida taking the pills and his phone .
He removed the phone case .
The things Dazai found fell out along with two blades and a plaster .
Atsushi looks at the floor .
"Atsushi have you been harming yourself?"
"No of course not and why are you doing this ?"
"Because we know you haven't been eating "
He looks at the president .
"Have you ever made yourself throw up?-"
"No I haven't I'm fine "
"Atsushi stand up "
He does so .
Yosano comes forward placing her hands around his waist .
He face showing pure shock .
She pulls his shirt up .
His ribcage and spine sticking out.
"Atsushi this is serious when was the last time you ate something and actually kept it down ?"
He pushed her away fixing his shirt .
He walks away so he's not surrounded.
"Um yesterday . I don't know what your talking about?"
Kunikida hands Dazai the pills .
"I've now taken 4 boxes of these away from you Atsushi . Why do you need these ?"
"That was you ? I have them for um -"
Dazai wakes up to him .
"I also heard you in the bathroom . The shower isn't as loud as you think it is "
"I have no idea what your talking about still "
He grabs Atsushis hand .
"This !"
His two fingers being bright red .
He pulls them back .
" And so what if I am . It's me I'm hurting not you so why do you care so much ?!"
"Because we love you Atsushi . We are here to help . How long have you been doing this ?"
"A few years "
He sits on the floor.
"And these ?"
Kunikida holds the two blades .
" I haven't used them or anything . I used to I Just wanted to know they were there if I needed them "
"Do you have other things like this ?"
"In the bathroom under the sink"
Yosano comes back hding the knife which is covered in blood . And a few rusted blades .
"Anything else we should know about ? "
"No "
"Dazai you stay here . Atsushi see you tomorrow "
The others leave .
Dazai takes Atsushi to bed .
