Ryoutaro wasn’t typically the sort to stick his nose in other people’s business. Not without good reason to, anyway -- and he knew that, no matter how much he’d want to help, his bad luck was likely to make things worse despite his best intentions.
Public arguments always made him uncomfortable, though. As much as he tried to avoid unnecessary confrontation, it was hard for Ryoutaro to stand back and watch. Especially when the argument involved a grown man, a teenage girl, and a crying child standing in the center of it all.
Ryoutaro was about to approach the child and try to calm her, when the man took off one of his sandals and threw it at the teenager -- but the man’s aim was, evidently, very bad, as it missed her entirely and hit Ryoutaro instead. Right in the face.
Yeah, he’d had enough. Rubbing at the red mark on his face, Ryoutaro approached the arguing couple. “Um, you... M-Maybe you should calm down...? You’re scaring the girl.”
