Chapter 1: A Normal Day

Tanjiro's pov

Another day at college Every day is the same. Wake up, study, and sleep. For the past three years, I have been following this routine. I chose criminology, thinking I would get some amazingly interesting cases each day.

And it was interesting in the beginning, but later on, each case started being similar to the other in some way or another. It started to bore me. Today was like any other. I headed to class and already found Karma there, fidgeting with his pen.

Tanjiro: What happened? You look bored.

Karma: I am bored. Want to go somewhere today?

Tanjiro: I was going to take Bam to the park. Wanna join?

Karma: Nah, I would rather sit at home and sleep than take dogs for walks.

Soon the professor came in and started the class. Did they forget to change the batteries on this clock? Nope, time was just going so damn slow. After what felt like a million years, class ended. I rushed home to get Bam, and we headed for the park.

He likes to go on walks here since he gets so bored sitting at home all day. I let him roam around while I sat under a tree, enjoying the sunset. It was so peaceful; the sun was slowly going down, and soon I drifted into dreamland.

I suddenly woke up and realized it was time to head home. But that was when I realized Bam was nowhere to be found. I started to walk here and there in the park while screaming his name, but there was no response.
