Chapter 1

"🎵Mary had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb, Mary had a little lamb Its fleece was white as snow🎵"

Why does that song keep on repeating in my head.

"Ugh, Why is college so hard?" I muttered.

I am barely surviving college. My parents died in an accident which mean I am an orphan. As a child, life was hard. I was bullied a lot at school. They all labeled me as the orphan workaholic freak. Come to think of it, I never had any friends. I always resolved my matters alone and only alone. I was the only one I had. I don't really have anything to lose, or anything to live for. I'm just existing...

Although, I am not that dreamless. I hope to one day open an orphanage. The kind of orphanage where everyone is a family, and the kids feel at home. I'm poor so it's hard to do anything without money these days. Luckily, I just got a new job. A job where I have these little Ted talks with people, to resolve their matters.

*Ding* I had just received a message from one of my customers.

[Customer]

Could you come to my house?

I was a bit skeptical. I have always been told to never go to a strangers house, obviously. Weird...

[Me]

Is there anywhere else we could go? Like a cafe.

An hour has already passed and this customer still hasn't answered.

[Customer]

Sorry, it will be difficult since I just broke my leg not long ago... it's going to be hard to leave my house.

Seriously, they just broke his leg. Now it's going to be hard to say no.

[Me]

Ok, sure! Just send me your location😄

Now I sound suspicious, I had to laugh. This job is tough already.

The customer sent me their location. Surprisingly, they lived near the forest where both my parents died. I wanted to forget this place. This really didn't sit right with me. I still went though, I didn't want miss out on 30 000. I had already made my decision, I was ready to go in the forest alone. Just like I always have. Alone.

I finally made it to the place. It was a little cottage, filled with flowers and vines. Weird, the customer had a place for sheep. I don't know if it was a coincidence or I am just thinking to much. Mary had a little lamb, that damned song has been sitting in my head ever since I woke up today. I went and nocked the door. What I saw in front of my eyes was not a normal human being... they were, no, he was, he most beautiful man I had ever seen. I don't remember his face though, strange. All I know is that I saw a beautiful man, and so I gladly went inside. Oh how I have been blessed to serve such a wonderful customer, I thought with tears of joy in my eyes. Luck is with me today.

"Thank you for coming, have a seat," He started.

"T-thank you, w-what is your name by the way?"

I couldn't stop blushing that day.

"~~~" He answered.

I don't remember his name... He went to the kitchen and came back with tea and cookies, how generous. We started with some easy talk to get to know each other, but it was time to do my job.

"So what is your problem dear customer?" I asked.

"I have problems with socializing..." He answered.

This beautiful man has a problem with socializing? He seems to be talking to me perfectly fine. Maybe he feels somehow comfortable with me, how cute. But I guess you can't judge a book by it's cover. He continued to talk about his past and what he can thinks he can do to socialize with more people, etc. It was my turn to give him advice, Instead it was quite for a while.

A dark aura filled the room. I started to feel uncomfortable. When it was my time to speak the man completely cut me off.

"Do you hear that?" He said with a smirk.

What could he mean by that? The expressions he made were strange. I can't describe it. Out of nowhere music started playing.

"🎵Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary had little lamb, Mary🎵."

It's that damned song again. My head started to ache. Why is it always stuck in my head! No, this is definitely real, it's the mans doing, I can feel it.

"S-sorry sir, could you explain why this is happening?" I asked.

The atmosphere turned even darker and somehow plagued. Could this be a prank? Is he messing with me or something. My head continues to ache even harder. I continue to drink some of the tea. Once I drank the tea I started to feel dizzy, everything around me swayed from left to right. My vision became darker, my head felt scattered and it was like I broke.

Was I going to die?

"Make a good story, Mary" He whispered.

What's that supposed to mean? I close my eyes. Honestly, I don't want to die. I had many other plans in mind. Like singing, dancing, drawing- screw it. Why did I have to die on the first day of my new job? Why did I die such a pitiful death. The last bit of my conciseness left, I couldn't breathe, I couldn't think, I was gone.

"Huh?"

Only to wake up in another person's body.
