Kazu wondered if this was some sort of perverse punishment for him. Not that it was fair. He hadn't committed any crime. He was just that way. If he'd been a girl instead it wouldn't have mattered. Or if he'd loved a girl instead. But he wasn't. He didn't.
A boy loved another boy. And the world saw that as a sin.
His parents kicked him out. His classmates scorned him. His teachers gave him reprimanding stares and then turned away from him. Only the person he loved took him in, supported him.
It wasn't fair. If he'd been a girl, no-one would have thought twice about a romance blooming. In fact, they'd had been more appalled at them living together – and yet, in this world where the both of them were male, he had no other choice.
And now he'd been swept up into this new…situation. Blackmailed because of parents he shouldn't even care about anymore after what they'd done – except he did. They were his parents after all. Despite how they'd cut him off. He still remembered the happier times he'd shared with them.
And now he'd killed someone because of them…and he might have to kill more.
