Sourcebook
Intro
One evening. During a university lecture.
I'm taking notes, struggling to keep my heavy eyelids from closing.
Ten more minutes. Once this is over, I can go home.
It's not like I have anything to do at home. I'll eat a bland dinner made from the cheapest ingredients possible, take a bath in my cramped bathroom, surf the web for a bit, and go to bed. Then the next day comes and I go to university again. I don't even go out on my days off.
I don't feel like I'm living a fulfilling life. It's just a meaningless daily grind where exhaustion keeps piling up.
I happen to look up, and Guest enters the corner of my vision.
...Guest-kun. You always look so happy. I'm jealous. I wish I could live happily like you do...
