I finally woke up from my long slumber. I was feeling drowsy from my tiredness. I opened my eyes hoping to see my bedroom. I looked around knowing that the memories I made yesterday were real.

"Sigh It should've just been a long dream." I said under my breath.

I stood up from the couch, glancing at the table that is right beside it. There was a picture of a family. The kid inside the picture reminds me of myself. 'I've always dreamt of still having my parents...' I uttered.

My body slowly walked forward, my head still aching from the previous night.

My eyes glanced at the bed where Tito had slept. He was no longer there.

"He left me, huh..." I thought out-loud.

I tried to move forward but then I realized in the mirror what a mess last night was. There was blood in my sleeves and splatter on my uniform. My eyes seek for comfort, another set of clothes perhaps?

As I searched through the cabinet, I felt comfortable with what I had to wear.

I suited myself up and immediately left the apartment. I immediately smiled as I found my newly-made friend right outside the streets.

Tito's 1st Day of Sojourn

During the 9 of ♧ Game

The next building stood right before us. It was a courtroom. The courtroom is the largest from all of the buildings so far, the room was only illuminated by the headlights from the ceiling. There were no seats for the spectators, except for the judge, defendant and the accuser.

We stood inside the building, the rain outside starting to halt as the minigame turned on.

The old lady slowly walked towards the chair where the judge should sit.

Minigame: Parity

Prize: 1 Key

"Judge, sit upon your throne to act."
