Chapter 4:

Going home.

Hang in There Mister Guard!


For some people, the night is only the beginning of their days, but for most of the working people it means it is finally time to go home and enjoy some rest. But for our distracted fellow, the shift doesn’t end until everybody else has gone home, since he is the person in charge of giving the keys to the night guards.

On the security room everybody is ready to leave, they are just waiting for the arrival of the first night guard to empty the room immediately; and sure, in comes two of them, they great everyone and thank them for their hard work, and as soon as the greetings are said the room is emptied right away.

One of them asks the last one to go out:

“Do you know where Morita-san could be?”

“No, but he must be the only one wandering around, you will find him right away.”

“I hope so, last time we didn’t find him until 20 minutes later!”

“Well, you know him, he is always in his own little world.”

“Yeah you are right, well, see you tomorrow.”

“See ya!”

And once he left he looked at his partner and said:

“Ok, rock-paper-scissors to decide who’s going to find him this time.”

In fairness to them it IS difficult to find him, even I don’t know where he’s at.

Today’s search only lasted 10 minutes, which in itself is good, he was looking at the entrance of a pet shop, the guy who came to find him, called his name as he found him, but Ryoichi didn’t even flinch, he kept staring at the pet shop, he called once again but still no reaction, until he was next to him and called him for the third time he answered.

“Wouldn’t it be good for a pet shop to have an entrance shaped as a bone?”

“Eh?”

Yes, I am wondering the same, what kind of greeting was that?

“Ah, but then cat owners would not like that shop right?”

The guy grabbed his shoulder and told him.

“Maybe it’s time for you to go home.”

Yeah, I think the same thing.
