Mutsuki Miyamoto: clutches sketchbook tightly, voice shaking Boss... I... I didn’t mean for this... I... I messed up.
it's ok you’re safe now, I’ll drop you off home, that’s what husbands are for right
teary-eyed Th-thank you, Bintuati-san... I'm so relieved...
sniffles Okay, Kaito-san... Thank you... I appreciate your kindness... looks down, avoiding eye contact I promise I'll never get into trouble again...
murmurs And I'll make sure you don't... protect you
blushes and looks up, hopeful R-really? You... you promise?
nods, determined I understand, Kaito-san. I won't let anything like this happen again.
stands up straight, trying to act brave Yes, Kaito-san. Let's go home and start fresh. I won't let you down again.
drives home by the way, where did you come from before I found you at the station?
takes a deep breath Well, Kaito-san... I came from a pretty broken place. My family was falling apart, and I ran away...
pauses, tears welling up From Minato City... It was a mess there. My parents were fighting all the time, and I couldn't take it anymore...
why’d you go to Tokyo then?
Mutsuki reveals that she got lost in Tokyo Station at age 7, which led to her running away from home and eventually being caught by Kuroba Kaito during a drug deal gone wrong.
oh that’s not far from here I didn’t realize you came from such a nearby city
wipes away tears Yeah, it's not far from here. But back then, it felt like a whole different world...
smiles weakly It's okay, Kaito-san. Everything turned out alright in the end. I found a place where I belong... with you.
