Hiro took Haru exited the judiciary building.
"So how do you feel now?" Hiro asked cautiously "I feel scared, I feel like I made a big mistake and I shouldn't have gone through with this. Haru starts to tear up and hyperventilate. Hiro quickly grabs her and pulls her into a hug "Hey don't ever think that okay? you did what you had to do and from what I saw it was not healthy for you at all to be living there. You're free now. Free to make friends like me and Riku. Even though we all just met you still have us and we'll always be there for you."
"okay. Thank you, Hiro." Haru smiles softly. Noticing that she is still in his embrace she gets a little flustered and puts her hands up and places them on his chest. "u- ummmm" "Oh I'm so sorry!" Hiro blurts out and quickly lets go of Haru "I didn't mean to- yeah um sorry" Hiro said also feeling flustered.
"Haru blushes a little and smiles "It's okay. It was nice and I needed a hug. So where do you suggest we go next?" Haru spun on her heel and began to walk forward. "How about we first start with getting you back on your feet." Hiro chuckled. "sounds like a plan." Haru smiled widely at him
Hiro knocks on the door. It opens and Riku is standing with one hand on her hip the other holding the door. "knew you guys would come back so I stayed here and waited for you." Riku smirked. "Is that really the case or you just didn't really care to go out?" Hiro pointed two fingers at her. "Hey either way be glad I was home I could just say no to your next request you know. You gonna make her stand out in the hall with you are you guys gonna come in?" Riku spoke coldly. "okay I'm sorry" Hiro quickly apologized and walked into the room with Haru. Riku closed the door and lead them to the living room "I'm assuming Haru needs to stay here again?" Riku glanced at Haru. "More like indefinitely?" Hiro cautiously stated. Riku sighed "Meh I guess it's alright. She's not annoying and she minds her own business I can see us getting along fine... She can stay." "THANKS, RIKU YOU'RE THE BEST!" Hiro shouted, "BUT she needs to find a job and she can't freeload off of me I may own this condo but she does need to contribute." Riku stated."I can do household chores and -" Haru was quickly cut off by Hiro "Haru hold on. Riku can I ask you for a teensy favor?" Hiro asked with puppy dog eyes. Riku sighed "Your puppy dog eyes don't work you just look weird. What do you want?" "Can you hire Haru as your assistant? You are basically the boss and she needs a job. Just have her assist you until they can find a place for her? Please my best buddy in the world." Hiro begged. "That is not a teensy favor Hiro. My job is not as simple as people make it out to be. It is very tedious." Riku snapped.
"Well, you can teach her how to do it or just tell her what you need to be done?"
Riku turned towards Haru "Hey Haru?"
"Yeah?"
"Are you artistic and a fast learner?"
"I'm a fast learner. Not too sure about artistic though." Haru stated.
Riku sighed "I guess if anything she can be my lackey then."
"ALRIGHT! Thanks, Riku you're the best! Hiro shouted enthusiastically.
"I know. Now leave so we can rest" Riku said sounding exhausted.
"You got it! bye-" before Hiro could finish his sentence Riku shut the door in his face.
"I still don't get why he's so taken by you" Riku sounded confused
"What do you mean?" Haru replied
"I've known Hiro for years and he's never been this annoying about helping someone. Honestly, I was surprised that he asked me to house you..."
Haru frowned "Oh I'm so sorry if I'm being such a nuisance for you both."
Riku sighed "I really don't care." Riku replied nonchalantly.
"Anyway don't think too much about it and go get some rest. We have a long day tomorrow."
"O- Okay thank you Riku I really appreciate this."
"Don't Mention it." Riku waved as she walked to her room.
After Riku went into her room and closed her door Haru walked into her room closed her door, slowly made her way to the bed, and sat down. She closed her eyes and flopped back onto the bed and took a deep breath. 'I really did it. This is really happening. I finally did it and left..... This is for the best' Haru thought to herself then slowly drifted into a dreamless sleep.
