Chapter 1: Introduction

In life, countless things might happen to someone at some point in their lives. Some people may call it fate, destiny, opportunity, or a turning point but for me, it wasn't one of those. Fate? Nah, everything about my life was already trash to begin so to hell with fate right? Destiny? Who's name was that? If destiny was real then how come nothing changed? Opportunity? What the hell was that? If there was an opportunity presented in front of me then I've grabbed it a long time ago. Turning point? To hell with turning points, everything about me had always been in twists and turns like I'm always riding a roller coaster of life. So, what's the point of these things for me?

When I was young, I always envisioned being a popular writer where all my works would be read by a lot of people since writing for me was not a means of earning money but rather, it was an outlet for me to express what I feel deep inside. My works were my innermost thoughts, my pleas, and my complaints about this cruel and brutal world. But how dare they, those bastards who only care for money, money, and money alone?!

I really felt miserable. I know I don't have any right to complain but… I just can't take it anymore. "Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!! To hell with those trashes!!!!", I shouted from the top of my lungs. I didn't even care about the people looking at me like I'm some kind of psychotic bastard in the middle of the streets. Their stares were like a knife slowly but surely cutting through every flesh on my body.

"Sob… sob… sob… haaaaaa!!! Why does the world continue to move even when some people felt useless? Why am I so useless?!!!", I shouted again. Maybe right now I don't look like a psycho but instead, I might look like someone who had just gotten out of an asylum. I was shouting a minute ago then I cried and now I'm depressed. Sigh, talked about my mood swings.

'Ding!', huh? An email? Who would send me an email?

I opened my phone without any care about how people kept staring at me with weird glances. Yup! I just decided not to care about them at all, it's not like looking at me could kill me right? So, I opened my inbox and read the mail. At first, I was reluctant to read it but after opening and reading its content I began to doubt the message. 'What the hell is this? Was this real or maybe someone's pranking me right now, was what I thought but some part of me wanted to believe if this was true.

True or not, this message was like the most incredible opportunity this twisted world could ever offer to someone like me with a pitiful soul. "Hahahahaha, it actually offered me a serialization of my own work!!! Wow, they even sent to me a copy of the contract and they even told me if there were some things that I would like to amend, they were willing to comply as long as it's reasonable and valid?", wow, what kind of company would give me this much blessing?

And just like what I said earlier that if someone would offer me an opportunity, I would readily and whole-heartedly accept it no matter what since a person like me had nothing to lose, to begin with, so I'll just grab it and used it for my own good.

But unbeknownst to me, this seemingly great opportunity became the turning point of my life in which my destiny changed and the predetermined fate was altered in a way I couldn't even imagine in the first place.
