This life is sort of boring, don't you think?

Don't get me wrong, living has its perks. The first perk? That's simple, actually being alive. The second? Eh, that's kinda hard to answer. I've got no issue with any of this, I'm perfectly content actually.

Oh, right. I'm _____ ___! And, to be completely honest with you, I'm pretty much a shut-in. Yeah, yeah, I get it, you probably don't think too much of me anymore. Well, it all happened when... I lost motivation to do anything. Not good enough of a reason for you? Well, that's the only explanation you're going to get, so deal with it!

Okay, moving right on, I can live the life that I do because of the simple fact my parents are rich. Well, that's a bit of an overstatement, but you get the point. They didn't actually care if I went to school or not, so I could just spend all my time doing nothing!

So, here I am, twenty-one years of age, doing absolutely nothing with my life living, off of the money my parents kindly let me use. That seems like a depressing life to you? Well... it's not that bad. After all, this is of my own volition, so the only person I could possibly blame is myself. Totally.

Although, I guess I have one passion. Food. To enjoy good food... that's what I want in this life. That, and to live a good long life. Yeah, but that's not the point here. Even though I have quite a liking of food, I don't usually eat good food. You know, the really delicious stuff, absolutely amazing food! My diet is pretty much confined to stuff you can make in the microwave, mostly due to the fact my parents wouldn't dare to give me enough money to live an actually healthy life.

With that said, I'm really hungry... but I seriously don't feel like eating instant ramen or anything. Looks like I'm left with a dilemma, what to do...

Let's see, perhaps I should finally leave my apartment and go eat at an actually nice restaurant! Yeah, I'll go get some great Italian food or something! Or, maybe Chinese food... oh, so many choices! Geez, I'm actually getting excited!

First, though, I need to take a shower. I can't just go outside looking like garbage. I quickly enter the washroom, turning on the shower to a nice hot temperature. After undressing, I finally enter and clean myself.

Hm... I'm low on shampoo. You know, maybe while I'm at it, I should buy some groceries and soap stuff! God, I'm such a good adult.

I finish cleaning myself, dressing myself back up.

Hm... I don't actually know the temperature. Well, I'll just put on a jacket just in case. You never know, don't you? Either way, I'm a bit uncomfortable when I'm not wearing multiple layers of clothes in public... well, not that I go outside really.

Now, for the first time in a while, I leave my small apartment!

What the hell... why is it so hot? Is the sun trying to kill me or something?! You can't be for real... damn it, I regret this already.

I immediately take off my jacket, I might actually die if I keep it on... and, I'm only slightly exaggerating that!

It's just a short walk to the area with the restaurants and stuff, I'll be fine...

Or, not. Oh, god, there are so many people. Why is it so busy today? Come on! Can't you all just go back inside! I'm seriously going to freak out if I have to deal with this any longer. Or worse...

Oh! Okay, a sushi place is right across the street. I can settle for that, yeah! I'll just have to cross one short crosswalk...

The lights go red meaning I can go. So, I do.

One step... two steps... three steps, and that goes on. I'm about at the middle of the crosswalk, almost there. Huh, weird, nobody else is with me! That's good for me!

Hm... that noise. It sounds like a car is--

... huh?

A car, it-- it came at me, and then it hit me... I'm on the ground, and the car that hits me sounds like it went barreling away.

No... no, this isn't happening... right? I'm not-- I--

I try and get up... no, that's not going to happen. Pain... it reverberated throughout my body with every movement. If I stay still, though, it's not terrible. I might be fine, right? Sure, maybe a broken bone or something... I'm fine...

Oh god, oh no... bones aren't supposed to go that way... or be sticking out like that. That's not good, is it?

I'm... I'm not going to die, am I? I'll be fine, perfectly fine... somebody will call the ambulance in time and I'll be fine. I won't die...

Okay, I need to think about something else. If I were to die... I'd want to be reincarnated maybe. Oh, oh! Like, uh... an elf, maybe. That'd be cool, wouldn't it? Or, maybe like something that can't easily die! Like, a golem or something! Wait, they wouldn't be able to feel... that would suck.

[Request Confirmed.]

Eh? Wait... who said that? Oh god, I must be going delirious from blood loss or something... uh... oh, hey. That guy from middle school... he still owes me ten dollars. What the hell? He never gave it to me! That bastard, what kind of person does that?

Sheesh, that just makes me angry... something else, something else.

You know, having skills like in games and stuff would be cool. Yeah... you know, like, one with no consequence to me. That's oddly specific... strangeeee...

[Request confirmed.]

Whoa, what? That voice again... that's super weird...

What... why am I so tired... No, no, I can't fall asleep... I need, I'm.. so tired... what's up with that?

I'm not... dying, am I?

It was dark. Wait, no, no, why's it so dark? This isn't normal! No way, did I faint or something? Oh, I get it! I must be in the hospital or something! Eh... I can't open my eyes. That's not normal, is it? And, actually, I can't hear anything either, Nor smell...

Uh oh, did that car mess me up that bad? That's not good, I don't wanna be blind, deaf and... I don't know the word for not being able to smell. That's not the point! Wait a minute, I can't move my limbs either! This is starting to look bad!

Okay, but, the strangest thing about this is instead of a comfortable hospital bed under me, below me feels like stone.

Ugh, this is way too stressful... maybe I'll just sleep on it. I'll think about what's happening tomorrow, the future is future me's problem... present me? Present me wants to sleep... I'm super fatigued.
