Osamu Dazai was your average 22-year-old, he had a job, multiple actually, he paid his bills and he was a single father... ok maybe not that average... a single father at 22, to a 4-year-old at that. Yes, he had a kid at 18, to be fair it wasn't really his choice, Kori Nakajima was a beautiful young woman who had taken an interest in him. But maybe, Dazai should've been more careful and taken the name as a warning, after all just like the meaning of her name, she was ice...

Dazai had met the woman on his first day of university, she was 20 and quite famous, she had beautiful looks and a kind demeanour. Dazai too was said to be good looking and maybe that's what drew her to him. She had taken him by the arm and got him drunk, he still doesn't remember when she had managed to give him an alcoholic drink. They got together after that, He had thought it was love, how naive, he was indeed just a kid. To be so blind as to fall for a woman who only wanted him for his looks, who didn't care that she was using a minor just to pass the time...

Why did he even go with a bunch of adult's he didn't know anyway? Both Odasaku and Ango told him not to... he should've listened, then she wouldn't have had blackmail to use against him... force him to take responsibility even tho he was the one taken advantage of. Why didn't he tell anyone what had happened? He ignored both Ango and Odasaku after what had happened... Why did he do that? Why did he leave their apartment in the middle of the night and move in with her? Why did he do everything in his power to sidestep them? Well fast forward 9 months and she gives birth... and things seemed good for a while... she had classes in the morning he had them in the afternoon, they switched during lunch and the other was left with little Atsushi, they decided on Kori's last name since Osamu had nothing to him, fast forward another 3 months and she's gone... leaving him homeless and with nowhere to go for an acting and modelling gig, some weird-ass agency gave her an offer telling her to forget her boyfriend and 3-month-old son for fame and glory... why did Dazai think he was cared for?
