Bad Blood
āFuriousā didnāt even begin to describe what Ken was when he came home one day to find his computer no longer in his bedroom. He was standing in the doorway, looking at the now bare desk beside his bed.
Deep breath. āMom!ā
āWhat is it, dear?ā
āWhere. Is my. Computer.ā
āYour father and I agreed that itās not healthy to let you have it in there anymore. Youāre starting to behave like you did that awful year you disappeared. Osamu said--ā
āOsamu said what.ā
ā--that he thought youāre too fixated on your technology. You need to take a break every once and awhile.ā
āI donāt need any breaks! Iām busy, canāt you see that!?ā
āThen you can be busy in the living room.ā
The living room. His lifeās work was sitting in the living room for anyone in his family to touch.
Osamu was going to pay for this.
