Mafia | BTS

Chapter 1

Darkness is always with me and, 

The warm sunlight never shines at me.

『.........I'm done, reading this one too』

I perfectly finished reading right now, I put this book that I was given for today, and yawn.

This dark small room, without any windows. The only light in here comes from the light bulb that swings from the ceiling , and the lamp that glows dark orange.

There is also a light near the toilet and the bathtub that seems forced on but, there are times when it turns on and doesn't turn on, so I just leave it off.

In this room there's nothing like so called "toys" neither is there the thing called "a phone", there's nothing other than a small desk, and a bed to sleep on.

I've been living here for as long as I remember.

Therefore, I've never seen anything that is not in this room with my eyes. I don't know any "Parents" "Brothers" or "Sisters". I know that there are 24 hours in a day but, there are no windows or clocks so I don't know whether it's night or morning.

Within the "1 day" that I made up on my own, three times a day, a lady named "Mater" brings me my meals.

She brings one book with each of the meals and, she tells me to read it to get over the boredom until the next meal.

The contents of the book are all different, novels, instructions, pictures, reference books, and such.

I finish reading by the time of the next meal, and I trade her the book the I finished reading, with the new book that she brings me with the next meal.

This is my daily routine.

Mater, gives me shampoo, conditioner, body soap, and toilet paper, when I ask her to, and when I can't use my toothbrush any longer, she brings me a new one.

The one thing that I wonder about is that, when ever she sees me, she always apologizes, "I'm sorry".

I don't know why she apologizes, and it's a mystery who she's even apologizing towards. It's not like I want to get outside, and it's not like I don't like my life here. It's safe, and there are no enemies that would attack me, or annoying pests. I get free food too. I don't need things like "friends" or "company".

I learn everything that I should know from all the books, I just wait for my meal, read the books, and sleep. It's an easy life. I don't have any complains. I'm not feeling anything unpleasant so, there's no need to apologize either.

......If there was one thing to say, though, it's unpleasant to see that a different person named Pater comes in while I sleep.

From his voice I can tell that he's a man but, he pats my head, I don't know what the smell is but he has a unique strong smell around him, he sadly mumbles "I'm sorry", and by the time I realize he's gone.
