Chapter 42
I was regretting my decision.
I shouldn’t have believed Felix’s bullshit nor decided to eat that shitty barbecue with him.
I cursed myself angrily. Had I never had a barbecue before? Did I have to make myself so pathetic all just
for a barbecue?
Yet I had barely taken a few bites before nearly dying in this damned drain! I really did deserve this!
But I couldn’t accept dying just like this!
“Is anyone there? Can someone help me?” I cried out as loudly as I could, hoping some passerby in the rain could hear my voice and pull me up.
I didn’t have high hopes, but I didn’t want to give up either.
There was nothing else in the street besides the roar of thunder and lightning.
Dread and fear swarmed me.
I tried getting myself out of the drain several times with my own strength. It wasn’t a large hole. I thought
I could do it.
But the walls were too slick to climb. My injured leg wasn’t helping either. My chances of climbing out of here were basically nil.
Was I going to die without a trace just like this?
Dying like this was actually a good thing. At least I wouldn’t need to remember how painful my days with
Felix were.
But I couldn’t die.
I still had Mom and Dad. They’d be devastated without me.
Strangely, Felix didn’t cross my mind at this point in time. It was my dear parents that I missed.
Felix had wounded and disappointed me too much.
I yelled like an angry beast in the drain, desperation filling my cries.
When the water in the storm drain reached my chest level, an old scavenger found me.
He toled at me from the edge of the drain. It only by the dimm flashlight in his shabby raincoat pocket
