Chapter 49

I kept huddled in my position and closed my eyes as I gave myself a suggestion that everything would be fine.

"Everything will be okay... It's not the same as you experienced before..."

However, my memory actually brings me to one of my childhood memories that always appears whenever I'm in a situation like this...

"You really disappoint me, son. I hope you can learn your lesson well."

"No, Mom! Please, don't lock me in this place!" I cried, grabbing Mom's hand as she was about to leave me in the barn. "It's too dark and narrow here..."

Mom was just silent, staring at me with her vicious eyes for a few moments before she pushed my hand away roughly so that my body bounced away from her.

"That makes it a perfect place for you to reflect on your mistakes. And I will lock you up until sunrise, so reflect on your mistakes during your time here."

I shook my head vigorously and got up from where he had pushed me to hug his hand again.
