I was supposed to drop by and see how Shizuo's girl was doing (He pretends to dislike this name for her.) with in an hour. I hadn't set off to go to his apartment until the time I was supposed to already be there. As I was driving there, I do believe I saw Shizuo hassling people by that bar he used to work at. I could only sigh. Since he was resorting to somewhat violent means, I knew he was very angry about the whole situation that happened earlier. Someone had used his name as a means of attempting to get his girl hurt. I don't think violence will help him get his answers faster.
I pulled up into the parking lot behind the apartments. It seemed unusually dark back here today. I observed my surroundings and realized the back lights were all off. That would have caused Shizuo to break into his own apartment out of suspicion that something was wrong. I remained chill because those lights don't have to be on everyday. It's saving energy and money.
I made my way to the stairs and went up to the second floor. I had already acquired one of Shizuo's keys to get inside. That is why I'm checking on her. I slowly opened it up in hopes that I wouldn't frighten the girl. I looked around and she wasn't even visible. I stepped inside and closed the door behind me very gently. I stood in silence and heard what appeared to be heavy breathing as I noticed a trail of female clothes that led to Shizuo's bathroom. That doesn't sound too good...I thought. I suavely made my way to the bathroom and peeked in. Not a soul. So I turned around and went to his bedroom where I heard the breathing. I hesitated to turn his light on in fear that I would see something I didn't need to. When the light illuminated throughout the room I saw her. She looked a little dazed and sweaty as if she had seen something.
"What seems to be the problem?" I asked concerned.
"M-Mr. Tanaka."
"No need for formalities. I'm not here for your money."
"I suppose it was all a dream. I just had really rough nightmare."
"Want to...tell me about it?"
"No thank you. I'm fine." she replied. "Where's Shizuo?"
"I saw him by the bar near Simon's sushi." I rubbed the back of my head as I answered.
"Will he be back anytime soon?" she seemed to genuinely want him back.
"I'm not so sure. Want me to call him up for you?"
"You'd do that? Thanks Tom!" relief spread across her face. That bad dream must have really shook her up. As I watched her, I pulled out my cell and called upon Shizuo.
