*yawns*
A middle-aged man who was unemployed just woke up from his sleep.
He looked at the clock that was hanging on the wall which had many cracks on it.
'Tic Tok Tic Tok'
The sound was clearly audible since it echoed which marked that the room was entirely empty.
"It's 12 PM already?", the man sighed with sadness which was clearly seen on his face.
It seemed as if he didn't want to wake up but in the end, he was forced to do so.
"Let's get some fresh air." Immediately after saying this, he rushed outside while opening the door.
A gush of warm wind blew past him which made his annoying morning a bit more uncomfortable.
"Uhhh... I hate this heat!"
He seemed to have some sort of weird taste. He didn't like hot or warm things and always consumed things that were rather cooler.
He immediately closed the door of his so-called small balcony and rushed back towards the washroom where he washed his face with cold water.
"Phew, this is good." The water was cold enough to give him satisfaction.
He immediately wiped his face and went towards the empty kitchen to find something to eat.

"Uhhh, I don't think I'll find anything here..."
The only things that were left were some cockroaches and some dead mice which had rotten long ago and gave out a foul smell.
He immediately rushed back towards his bed to sleep again when suddenly he tripped and fell.
"Ouch! That hurt!"
He looked at the thing that made him trip and found that it was his old-fashioned cell phone.
Did he rally trip or did he just slip because of the phone? Well, not that it mattered. What actually mattered was it was his phone due to which he fell.
He looked at that carefully only to find that its screen had a crack. He realized that he had slipped instead of tripping.
He picked up the phone to see if it was working.
"Thank god! It's just a crack! It is still working and perfectly fine...", and that was the moment when the phone suddenly switched off.
"Argh! What happened!?"
He immediately tried to turn it on but realized that its display screen had been destroyed due to his weight.
"Damn, my luck can't be worse!", immediately after saying this he got a call from the bank from which he had taken a loan 6 months ago.
It wasn't a proper bank anyway, it was those thugs called loan sharks who set up a bank, which was more likely a fake bank.
Since he couldn't see the name or number because the display was broken, he picked up the call.
Then he was insulted in the most horrible way possible by the people of the bank and was forced to listen to many humiliating words.
They asked him to return all the money within 1 month or else they would be filing an arrest warrant against him. He agreed for the time being and cut the call instantly.
"Sigh, I will be dying today then when the heck would I even have the time to return the money?"
He didn't have any more energy left to say anything and just kept quiet. He took a look at his wallet and found that he had a 500 yen coin and some more change which he had been saving for a long time.
He immediately rushed to the shop to buy some instant noodles, ice cream, and cigarettes for smoking without which he didn't live even a single day.
It was quite hot and probably that is why he intended to buy ice cream but that wasn't the actual reason.
It was in fact quite simply because he liked cold things more. Even the instant noodles that he bought would be eaten with cold icy water instead of hot water!
He rushed immediately since he didn't like to be under the sun and returned as quickly as possible.
He was very hungry so he immediately took out the noodles and ate them with cold water and ice cream mixed in them which was the weirdest combination that he had tried so far.
After finishing the food within ten minutes, he started smoking immediately. He went back to bed and started to think about his life as to where he had gone wrong.
"Haha, so my death hasn't even been made public?"
"..."
"The company went bankrupt and my uncle was the one who got the loan. so why the hell should I pay?"
"Just because I was the company's successor?"
"..."
"If I had listened to my parents and studied well, I wouldn't have been in this situation."
"Ha..."
"But, I did listen to them."
"No, that is a different topic entirely. If only I had given more thought behind that action which I committed..."
It was indeed fate that he blamed more than himself. He was an extraordinary student until he reached high school where he got spoiled due to his friends. Did he really, now? Or maybe that was just a rumor.
His parents had expected him to be a national topper, however, he failed completely which was the exact opposite of their expectations.
"I wish... I could die peacefully..."
"Or maybe I don't deserve a peaceful death..."
All he wished now was to die and that too peacefully since all his life, he never experienced peace.
He was bullied and forced to do many things which he didn't want to and that was basically that ruined his mind which led him in killing his own parents when he was just 16 - this was the statement issued by the court.
He was sentenced to death but seeing that he had a sister for whom he had to work hard, his penalty was decreased and only 10 years of imprisonment was given as punishment.
However that spoiled him even more since he mingled with other criminals and finally when he got out of jail, he murdered his one and only sister who cared for him. - and this was their conclusion.
He was again arrested and was now given a death sentence immediately however he asked them to fulfill his last wish which was giving him one month's time.
Normally no one would listen to such a thing because one could escape during that time, but they agreed probably because his father's friend was one of the higher authorities in Judicial cases.
So why would someone help a person who has murdered his friend? - this was a mystery that the court was confused with as well, but perhaps those corrupt people knew the reason he was being helped. Of course, they did nothing and kept quiet because the sentence was issued even after many attempts.
The government agreed and kept him under supervision for one whole month where he was given a house of his own.
And today was the last day of that extended time that was given.
"Haha, it's better if I die on my own instead of being killed by those bastards..."
Among the food items he had bought, there was rat poison too which he had mixed with the food and ate. On top of that sleeping pills were mixed too to make it less painful and die during his sleep.
Well, normally poison wouldn't be given to the prisoner since there would be supervisors watching over them. But they allowed it despite knowing that because if he were to kill himself earlier, then that would only reduce their own trouble!
Unfortunately, he wasn't able to sleep as his whole life flashed in front of his eyes.
"Where did I go wrong?", was the only question that he kept on asking.
Well, was there a reason for killing his family? Or did he do it purely because he enjoyed it? Regardless, the fact didn't change that he was a murderer and one thing is for sure, crimes can't be hidden from God.
Nature wouldn't forgive such a bastard in the first place. However, he realized at least.
But it was too late to reflect upon that and he had finally fallen asleep just by asking one small wish, "If I were to born again... I want to be the strongest and live a good life... I don't want to be bound by anything..."
And those were his last words after which he fell asleep from which he wouldn't be able to wake up... in this world that is!
But the question was still unanswered, was it really him who went and killed his parents, or was he just accused? Did someone else kill them and he was just present at the crime scene or was it his teammate that killed them?
Well, whatever it may be, one thing was for sure, he was now going to some other place, far away, probably because he had some unfinished job that God wanted him to do or perhaps he had to receive a punishment.
