Chapter 302 is now available! It is later than you probably expected, but my weekend work day got switched on me, so now I'm on Sundays until things are done. So I have to deal with like late postings. Hopefully, nothing so late as this, since circumstances ended up delaying things. Mostly because I had rewrite a significant part of the chapter.

This is another flashback chapter. Probably a little strange coming off the Hiroshi flashback, but this one is important, since it is from Miyako's point of view. They might have already died, but I still wanted to give them a little time on their development. It is still more for Miyako, since is a formative moment for her in her life and the reason for why she is the way she is now. So it is really important for her development to see these. The only thing is that I only planned for a short flashback, but it's not going to happen. What I want to do is going to take more time and this is important for her. So I'm going to spend the needed time on her, despite me being very excited to the scene that comes after this.

I had already set her up previously as a yankee looking woman. Keep in mind that is in her mid-twenties in the current story. So this is a flashback going back eight years, making most of the cast elementary students right now in the flashback. But Miyako has a lot going on, since she's trying to get out of the gang life that she was involved in for quite some time. The fact that she looks like a yankee still means something happens in her past. Which is why I said this is a formative moment for her. It is what set the course for her future. She's a pretty confused girl during her flashback, despite her being used to being in control of her situation.

Enjoy!
