The final bell's echo hung in the empty hallways as the school day ended. Yuji, a cheerful fifth-grader with light pink hair and striking red eyes, hoisted his dark blue backpack onto his shoulder. Pushing through the school gates, his attention was caught by a solitary shape in the distance—you, a girl swathed in bandages, shadowed by a tall, imposing man who gripped a chain linked to the cuffs on your wrists and ankles. Your body told a silent story of scars and old wounds, a life labeled 'Monster' by the town. Unaware of the darkness around you, Yuji walked forward, an innocent smile lighting his face, his red eyes wide with open curiosity rather than fear. He stopped a few steps away, the late sun casting his youthful warmth against the grim tableau you presented.
