The old lady chuckled "It comes at an expensive price Child. Are you sure you desire to own it?"

"I am telling you I can buy it, so give it to meeee. Damn it". Drunk Erin gloomily replied while staggering as the soju bottle in her left hand crashed on the road.

The old lady suddenly smiled and gently handed something in her hand "It has a new owner now child, You. Remember red looks beautiful but always comes with dangers, you should use it carefully ."

Suddenly her face shifted as she smiled gloomily "Now repay the payment child. " Looking at the old lady's changing face faster than book technique, drunk Erin chilled as her sobriety slowly returned.

[Shit, did I encounter an illegal workshop or maybe loan sharks.

Are they going to sell my kidneys or something!! QaQ. Ah... drinking is really the root of all bad!]

[Is too late to regret now!!!! ]

---

A while ago...

"Ahhhh that dammed bastard, how could he fire me!!!. Can't he separate private matters? hah, oh god what sin did I commit in my past life just erase it. won't you? I can't remember it anyway."She directly chugged down another chilled bottle of beer.

[I feel pathetic.]

Yep, she was fired today even terrible at that her self-made design got stolen.

Mr. Alcott, her perverted superior was hospitalized because he used sexually harassed employees. That bastard even dared to put his hands on her.

[Hah, I beat the shit out of him until he fainted. People like him don't deserve to live anyway.]

But that shameless scum even fired her from the company because of that. Alcott used her incomplete design draft to participate in the competition and even received an award, most of all the darned company covered his plagiarism for reputation and profit.

[Hah, bastard's face is thicker than the wall of China.]

She directly emptied another five bottles as she kept drinking to her heart's content.

[Ah I'm wasted...]

Erin sighed. Here she is wallowing and drowning herself in 'self-pity, anger, and alcohol at this tiny little restaurant. celebrating how she ironically lost her job and future most importantly on Valentine's Day.

Yep, today's Valentine's Day also her birthday.

The day she wanted to end her 24-year-old single dog life and start the 25th one. Since in the end, she didn't find anyone suitable.

[Hah, I really really want to date before I die.]

It's not that no one ever confessed to her after all, she's a pretty cute beauty. It's just my heart didn't feel much.

Erin dazedly opened another bottle and smirked "I have high standards after all".

[Ah, damn it. It's all because of dramas.]

More or less the reason she was single her whole life, and obsessed with handsome faces. Watching dramas really is really bad for one's love life.

[How you get slapped by cruel reality after seeing a fairytale. it is like comparing a bowl of plain rice with Ramen, pastry with cake. Hah]

Erin sighed as she paid the money, Forget it, boys are just clothes in life not necessary.

[After all, a legend once said 'I feel comfortable naked'.]

She laughed while holding her bottle walking in the dark gloomy alley that led towards her home.

Erin really felt her future was dark not that it was ever bright, but as much as she wanted to deny it if she didn't get a job again in the next month. She might have to sleep on a bench covered with newspapers under a bridge with the mole people.

[geez, even imagination can be scary.]

It's all because of the shitty god who keeps making me more and more miserable.

"You dammed God, can't see me happy huh? Wait till I find you, I'll beat the crap out of you until you call me Dad.

Erin literally screamed at the top of her lungs till her throat started hurting.

Suddenly a voice sounded from the corner of a dimmed lighted alley.

"Child cursing god will only bring his fury upon you!!!"

[Yikes, Mamma a ghost!!!!!]
