I opened my eyes and yawned.

I sat up and looked out my window.

I sighed. I grabbed my glasses from my nightstand and put them on. I got out of bed.

I walked to the kitchen and started making breakfast. I turned on the TV.

"Today in Yokohama, another body was found last week in front of the Cosmo World amusement park near the port."

"Another one?" I sighed.

"Police and detectives are still wondering why and how this could've happened. The body had no finger prints or any evidence at all. Only an inflated head."

Geez, that must've hurt..

I walked over to the door and opened it. I saw a box on the ground. I grabbed it and shut the door.

I opened a box and saw a letter inside of it.

Hi! How's Japan?
We found a box of your old things and decided to mail it to you. I know you probably will never use them. But, I thought you would've wanted them.
-Mom

I grabbed my phone and texted my mom.

Y/n:
Thank you for the box of my old stuff! Japan is great!

I put my phone on the table and looked in the box.

"Woah. My old Bungo Stray Dogs merch.." I mumbled.

Bungo Stray Dogs was an anime I loved watching when I was a teenager. I'm now 22 years old and live in Yokohama, Japan, the city where the anime took place.

I looked at all the books and manga I had inside the box.

No Longer Human.. Poems by Chuuya Nakahara... Tales of Edgar Allan Poe.. Crime and Punishment.. Anne of Green Gables.. Little Women..

I then saw all of the Bungo Stray Dogs manga I had.

I smiled while looking at them.

~Time Skip~
I walked inside my apartment after a long day of work.

Done.

I work as a waitress at a restaurant. It was a busy day.

I sighed in relief and went to my laptop.

~Time Skip~

I closed my laptop and looked at the books and manga on the counter.

......I should treat myself tonight.

~Time Skip~
I ate a bag of popcorn while watching Bungo Stray Dogs from my laptop.

I was on the last episode of the first season.

I sighed, "Geez, I have no idea why I stopped watching you. I guess I just got so busy with work... And life in general." I touched the screen and smiled, "It'd be nice if only you could be reality."

I then yawned. I felt my eyes get heavy.

I laid my head on the counter and fell asleep.
