"Aqua Chrysalis houses the most bizarre tenants who call each other by their animal code names. In this jungle of a building.I hate humans.

One moment they say they like something. Then, the next moment they say they hate it.

One moment they get along. The next moment they fight.

They're hopeless, hypocritical beings who are proud and weak.

They continue to hurt people. To destroy what they have in their hands.

In an endless cycle.

That's why I decided not to make any friends.

My name is Butterfly.

Well actually, my name is really Cho. My name means 'Butterfly', so people started calling me that. Since when? I don't remember.

I think the name suits me. Butterflies silently flutter about from flower to flower, watching the world unfold as time moves forward. And keeping distance from interfering in the business of others.

That is the kind of person I am."

Mr. Shark and Miss Butterfly

Saturday eventually arrived. The first visitor I had that morning was Prof. Dog who offered to do my hair and make-up as if he was an expert at it. I politely declined.


"I can make you beeyooteeful, woof." He waved a brush around like a magic wand.


"I can fix myself on my own. Thank you for the offer." I pushed him out of the door.


"Miss Butterfly, do you like Mr. Shark?" He smiled with his tongue hanging at the side of his mouth.


"He's a friend!" I unconsciously raised my voice and closed the door.


I could hear Prof. Dog laughing from the other side.


I decided to pay no mind to him and start preparing myself.


I looked at myself in the mirror. I didn't spend so much time on my appearance. I found it pointless and time-consuming.


When I stepped outside my room, Mr. Shark was there waiting with Prof. Dog. He was in his usual blue suit. It made me slightly relieved that he didn't dress up or anything.
