Since he met this little girl who tried to kill him Shizuo's life became even weirder than usual. He was used to having someone messing up with his life, the flea not to name him, but this, this was even worse than what he ever imagined.

This girl was following him EVERYWHERE and he didn't even exagerate things, she was everywhere. She knew where he worked, she always knew the places they were headed to and when she finally seemed to disappear she magically was back in front of him.

She knew where he lived too and she basically knew everything about him.

Shizuo barely knew her name.

He supected a certain Orihara Izaya to be behind all of this, no one else could mess with his life that much.

The thing which bothered him the most?

He couldn't let his anger come out, she was still a little girl and he wanted to believe she had no link with the louse, he really hoped she didn't.

In one way or another he had to release his anger, innocent objects had to suffer. Tom sighed, Shziuo really had no self control.

He liked Akane-chan, she was cute and always polite, he was happy that someone else took a liking in his kouhai, everyone was always afraid of him and he barely had anyone to talk to.

Tom tried to suggest that maybe Shizuo should try talking to her, giving her ice cream or something. Children always liked sweet things after all.

The debt collector acquiesced to the proposal, he was ready to do anything to get rid of that annoying little girl, even bear her babbling for a while, as long as she disappeared from his life.

Tom was the one who asked her, he knew Shizuo would probably loose control and be angry at some point or another.

"Akane-chan, do you want to go eat something with Shizuo-san?"

She stayed silent for a bit, thinking

"Do I get to be alone with him?"

Tom was surprised by the request, he smiled, thinking that a child crush really was cute and he answered

"Sure"

As soon as he said that Akane ran toward Shizuo and took his hand forcefully, bouncing in happiness, a wide smile illuminating her face "Come on, come on Shizuo-san, let's go eat cake!"

He didn't even manage to answer anything, but he could swear he's seen a weird shadow following them.

He shook his hand, he must be seeing thing, that girl craziness must have gotten on his nerve.

It was an hallucination wasn't it?
