Backstory

Hayate lives in Kyoto, Japan, where his family owns a small, local bakery. His father takes care of bread while his mother takes care of wagashi, traditional Japanese sweets. His parents are often busy with preparing stock for the bakery, making Hayate, the oldest of five, take care of his younger siblings: Yoichi, 2 years younger brother, Aimi and Hanae, 3 years younger sisters, and Itsuki, 4 years younger brother. He took care of their meals and made sure they all went to school. However, his siblings were often bullied because they were being taken care of by their brother, not their parents. After finding out, he often got into fights with the bullies. He would quickly go over to where his siblings were and protect them. Seeing this, the bullies started to pick fights with him and it soon got physical. He often won these fights but the bullies didn’t give up and would fight him whenever they saw him. From this, Hayate was reported to his parents. His parents were shocked at it but didn’t punish him because they thought he was doing the right thing. Soon after that, his parents began to manage their time better to make sure they were in the lives of their children but Hayate was still taking care of his siblings most of the time.

Even so, Hayate still fought with others all the way into the first year of middle school. It was then he was skipping classes, just because he was getting into fights. One day, one of the bullies brought a huge group to bully his younger sisters. Hayate was currently walking over to the girls’ school, only to feel something was off once he saw a big group of kids walk past him. He turns around, immediately noticing Hanae’s flower hair clip. He follows after the group, watching what was going on until they reach a large empty lot. The group immediately starts pulling on Aimi’s and Hanae’s hair, spouting out insults and laughing at the girls’ helplessness. He quickly runs in, punching the one who was terrorizing his sisters the most. A big fight started and escalated. One of them unexpectedly had a pocket knife and they slashed at his shoulder. Once seeing blood, they panicked and ran away. Aimi and Hanae screamed and started crying but Hayate just smiled and told them that it would be okay. A passing by man saw the commotion and led them to the hospital. The doctor stated that the cut was too deep and he needs to get stitches. The girls started crying again, but the man leads them out of the room to call their parents. Hayate just nods at the doctor and got the stitches. Now he has a scar on his left shoulder blade and couldn’t raise his arm up a certain height until the scar healed two years later.

By his second year, he stopped skipping classes since he was force to retake classes so he could have enough credits. His injury was also accounted for and his homeroom teacher advised him to stay in school. It was during this year that he met Yamato, right after the cultural festival. Mesmerized by Yamato’s fan dancing, he went to go find him and ask if he could learn it too. He was afraid that Yamato would run away from him, but pleasantly surprised when he agreed. The two became fast friends afterwards, often hanging out with each other and becoming partners in dance practice, along with Trinh, a girl who they met at the dance studio. The three grew close like siblings, Hayate even thought of Yamato as a little brother to him. However, his view of Yamato somewhat changed after Yamato bid him goodbye before leaving to attend an international school. He began to have complicated feelings but just brushed it off, not really understanding it at the moment even though he began to see hints from their interactions before. He continued on like usual, acting normal in the texts with Yamato, while keeping quiet that he was doing paperwork to transfer to the same school just to surprise him.
