 Even thinking about it now is making it hard to keep my composure in public. First my mom was taken from me, now my dad? An eighteen year old without parents? It wouldn't be the first time I was left alone, of course. I mean, I wasn't truly alone. My adoptive brother Josuke has been in town ever since things started to get bad-- and Jotaro came once we were sure dad wasn't going to make it.

He lived in Japan in the small town where I was once discovered by my father. I'm supposed to be meeting him today to discuss my father's business, a move pressured by some grumpy board members.

His daughter Jolyene was a lot closer to me in age, but we still rarely kept in touch. Josuke I would see the least of all.

He tapped his fingers on the table. "The Speedwagon Foundation pushed back hard on it." He nodded to himself. "They always have our best interest at heart. But... the board members insisted." I returned his silent nod as a stared down at the table.
