Chapter 10 - Am I Am

[Store, Day 4]

+S1 rarely visits. I will continue watching the house for further observations.

+S2 drops by frequently. He has noticed I am a new worker. He greets me politely every time he visits.

+S3 occasionally visits with her usual friends. She panics when her friends are far. She fears being alone?

[Store, Day 9]

+S1 asked how long I had been working there for. When I said only for the past week, S1 looked at me with HIS eyes. I thought I was caught, but S1 bade me farewell and walked away with the bought items... Their similarities are unsettling.

+No changes with S2 and S3.

+No changes at the house, except for that man again. I've often seen him following S3 while following S3 myself, but he avoids being seen. I am interested.

[Store, Day 11]

+People come and go, and I recognize all. Their business is their own, but I still observe.

+There is one customer who always shop with their puppy. It wags its tail whenever I give it attention. I like puppies.

+The old manager gave me a hot bun while I was on break. It's been a lifetime since I've met a kind person.

[Store, Day 12]

+After my shift, I followed the man again after catching him near the house.

+He walked to the station and got on the train. This time, I followed. He didn't get off until the next city one hour away. He walked a few blocks to a medium house. Through the windows, I saw him kiss a woman (wife?). He picked up the toddler running to him and the child kissed him on the cheek.

+I have some suspicions on why he is tailing S3. He lives a life of a normal man, but my suspicions have never been wrong.

[Store, Day 17]

+People come and go. Their business is their own until it interferes with mine.

+The man who has been stopping more than once at the house enters the store at random hours now. When I scan his alcohol, I smell his agitation. There is something spinning in his eyes, a plan, and he fidgets with impatience.

+"Watch for now," the boss orders after I tell him the situation. "You know what to do if anything happens."

+After my shift, I go to my apartment and prepare my favorite knives. I like knives.
