Prologue

"I'll go... If going with them will help you guys, then I'll go with them."

—

Your parents are in huge debt. They can't pay for another mouth to feed. The only thing they're good at is arguing with each other besides working their selves to the bones.

Loan sharks are going to come for your father, he failed to pay them back in time after his business went bankrupt after being robbed. He loaned a huge amount of money from the infamous Mafia led by an unknown yet terrifying man who goes by the name, "The Balladeer".

Your parents don't even have time to talk to you because of how stressed they are with this problem. They had no choice but to resort to one last option, which was to sell you to the Mafia.

They didn't ask if you were okay with this, well of course you aren't! But there's nothing you can do to save yourself, so you volunteered to go with the Mafia.

Their boss whom they call "The Balladeer" personally handed out a direct order to send his men to collect you in exchange for cash so that your father can pay his debts.

Even in your last moments in that house, even after sacrificing yourself and making things easy for everyone, your parents didn't even bat an eye on you. They were too fixated on the money.

You were blindfolded and tied up, forced to seat inside a van alone with dangerous men you can't even trust to escort you as you're being shipped to a place where no one knows. You are helpless and terrified, yet your parents didn't even give a shit.
