Walking With Nothing

<p class=ql-align-center><em>You only die once too.</em></p><p class=ql-align-center>To my classmates I'm a celebrated player; bold mysterious and ready to party. But my childhood was the stuff of nightmares-pure evil. What they don't know can't hurt me and I'd rather die than have their pity. I thrive on canned coffee cigarettes and whatever leftovers Makoto brings when he hauls my ass to school. Once I turn 18 I can stop lying about my age at work and hiding the fact I live on my own.</p><p class=ql-align-center>I've got scars but no strings. I'm walking with nothing and I like it.</p><p class=ql-align-center>Of course I mess up everything though.</p><p class=ql-align-center><em>Riku as long as you have a heartbeat you have the right to live.</em></p><p class=ql-align-center>Hinata Tachibana is a top student and a seasoned liar packed full of spice. The carefully carved words that fall from her mouth make me feel . . . things.</p><p class=ql-align-center>I want Hinata but I'll break more than just her heart.</p><p class=ql-align-center>I'm an even bigger piece of shit than I give myself credit for.</p>
