ME AND THE DEVIL:

WALKING SIDE BY SIDE.

Endo Yamato was the strangest person you knew, and you knew a lot of people: working in a small shop for a very short time, you learned important facts. For example, this territory belonged to a group of hooligans, which was led by two, or so it seemed to you. The tattooed man was always accompanied by a mysterious red-haired guy who could often arbitrarily enter your store and take everything he wanted for free. Was it fair? Of course not... But even your boss advised you not to block the way of these young people — the consequences could be fatal.

But it wasn't that bad! From time to time, Yamato even paid for his companion's purchases, making all sorts of jokes that you wouldn't understand. But you stood firm in your position, not wanting to have friendship with some criminal authorities. Not that Endo cared, since he still came to your store alone or with Takiishi, it didn't matter. And very soon you realize that you are already used to seeing him in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Sometimes he came in blood, picking up sweets for his best friend, who was the cause of these beatings. Once you even tried to persuade Endo to leave Takiishi, but Yamato gave you that murderous snake look, saying that you shouldn't bother your sweet head with things that don't concern you.

Day after day, month after month... You really got used to a new way of life, even if you tried to avoid dangers. It was useless, Yamato Endo is like the devil following you: what was the reason? Most likely, you are something like an interesting pet or a street cat that is pleasant to pet. After all, as you know, Endo treasured only his long-haired friend.
