August 15th. Although the sun had already set, there is still humidity in the air. Sweat was pouring from my body as I ran up the stairs of my apartment. A LINE message with only 4 words from my girlfriend. I immediately understood what the message meant. I went to work despite today being Obon and rushed to my apartment after preparing to go home. Then I found her standing beyond the fence of the rooftop with empty eyes. To be honest, this is already the 4th time I’ve seen her trying to jump and commit suicide. There are 2 types of people in the world. Desire to live── the people being ruled by ”Eros”. Desire to die── the people being ruled by ”Thanatos”. Most of the people in this world were the former, but she was undoubtedly the latter. I knew that she was a person being ruled by “Thanatos” before I started dating her. It’s not surprising because I saved her when she was trying to commit suicide on the rooftop, similar to now. That was how I met her. She was the girl who recently moved into the same apartment as me. She had round, cute eyes and full lips. She had lovely facial features, and the delicate-looking girl stole my whole heart in an instant. I’m sure that it was something like love at first sight. From that point on, I started talking about various things with her and we soon became friends. It was as if she was an angel descending from heaven when I was living alone, feeling Read the full article

It was a summer day where the sun blazed down detestably. A stray dragon destroyed a single village. Two boys from the village, Earl and Neil, stood side by side in the heap of rubble that remained. However, what the two of them saw was quite different. The younger brother, Neil, raised his head and stared towards the sky in the direction the dragon had left. His older brother, Earl, turned his head down as he engraved the scene of the devastated village into his memory. The hot sun soaked the two boys in sweat. The usually noisy sound of insects was quiet that day. The boys didn’t say a thing. Only plain white clouds bustled through the bright blue sky. Ten hours later, knights arrived from a nearby town after hearing about the attack by the dragon. However, they were unable to find any close family members or acquaintances of the two brothers from the rubble. Eventually, the two of them were brought to an orphanage in a nearby town. 〇 “I will become a knight.” When Neil said so, Read the full article

Eventually, the two of them were brought to an orphanage in a nearby town. 〇 “I will become a knight.” When Neil said so, the adults in the orphanage were moved to tears by his resolve. They praised his spirit and bravery for wanting to avenge his home, his family and his friends. Of course, they thought that those were just reckless words, but after seeing Neil’s effort, most of them changed their minds. On the other hand, Earl would just play with building blocks in a corner of the orphanage all day long. Even when people around him asked, “Aren’t you also aiming to become a knight like your brother?”, he just simply shook his head. The evaluation of the two brothers were divided into two extremes.

I. I’ve lived this kind of hundred-day life twenty-seven times. I remember it very clearly. Many people’s lives have a limit; they’re one long book of qin scores, with spring nights and autumn winds, with birth and age and illness and death. I’m not like that. My time shackles me, and it also overlooks me — from March 2016 to June 2016, I’ve been continually looping through time. I’m waiting for someone. His name is He Zhi.   II. I’m called Ji Mao, English name Jimmy. It sounds like the name of a hair stylist, and I actually am a hair stylist. March 1, 2016, at 7:37am, the one who sleeps on the top bunk, Danny, will be next to my bed, pushing on my shoulder and telling me, “Chicken feathers, time to get up for work.” I really don’t like other people calling me chicken feathers.   Although there is no way of knowing, I can guarantee that Ji Mao exercised too much on February 28th, so that’s why my entire body aches when waking up on March 1st. Every time I’m woken up by Danny, I can’t help but say, “Fuck, it’s too early.” Tonight at 8:19pm, He Zhi will come to the hair salon where I work.   On deliberate choice on the author’s part.

On my way home, I met a comatose girl. It was 10 P.M, and a day that people call Christmas and New Year’s Day, I was returning from a drinking party with my co-workers while thinking about the holiday schedule for tomorrow. At this time of the day, few people pass through the residential area, which is a little far away from the station. Which is why it’s kind of difficult to decide whether or not to pass through her, who is on my way blocking the path. …Okay, I’ll just ignore her, sleeping here at this time isn’t a bad thing. It’s bothersome to call the police because they would ask a lot of questions; thus I don’t want to step on such a visible landmine. “Wait…don't ignore me.” I was about to pass her by that time, but the collapsed girl grabbed my leg. “Let go of me, I’m not so soft-hearted that I’ll stay here to listen to your story!” “Just listen to me for a few seconds, please? You’ll benefit from it too!” She’s lying down on the ground and talking about some damn benefit at a time like this! She looks quite young, though, what if the police sees me and thinks I’ve done something to her?! “This, look at this…” A girl handed me an envelope. It’s very thick and heavy.” “Open it and take a look.” When I open it as I was told, I discovered a bundle of 10,000 yeni notes inside. I rub my eyes and recheck it and take out a note. All of them are real 10,000 yen notes. “Hey, this, all of these are ten thousand yen notes…” “If you accept my condition, I will handover this bundle to you.” This is a fascinating conversation, but can I really take this money? First of all, let’s listen to what she says. If it’s unreasonable or fraudulent, I can still run away and call the police. “So, what is that condition?” “I want you to adopt me.” What is she really trying to say? “You, how old are you?” I asked her just to be sure if she’s minor or not. “I’m 19 this year.” She older than ..........
