Paranoid was the word that best described Masao this moment. He was sure Shige would come for him any second, as the thought of the stolen money continued to weigh his mind.

To ease his mind, Masao took a long, winding path to Kira's place.

He arrived at the complex, trying to get a glimpse through the window as he approached. Kira had told him they would be alone, but he was still unsure. He approached the door quickly, knocking. He looked over his shoulder again, just to be sure.

Hearing the knock at the door Kira tried to collect himself. Fixing his hair once more in the mirror before getting the door. He was so happy to see that Masao made it but didn't hug his boy, he held open the door first to let him in.

For a second, Masao didn't move. He just looked at Kira, not saying anything. Blinking, he moved to quickly walk into the complex, nudging Kira away from the door so that he could close and lock it. He couldn't shake the paranoia, and he moved to make sure the windows were secured as well. "Are we alone?" he questioned as he checked that there were no cracks that someone could peer through.
