I woke up the next day.

"How did I get here?" was the first thing I said, it had been a long time since I was in the room, this was the house my family owned, after the death of my parents, the family home was passed onto me, but I never lived in it, the memories of this place gave me a sad feeling.

I tried to recall what happened to me yesterday, the last thing that I remember is drinking a lot, I had never tried drinking alcohol before, but I had heard that it can help people forget about the troubles they had. Anyway, enough thinking about depressing things.

I walked to the mirror and looked into it.

...

"eh"

It took me a second to realise that I looked 15 years younger, the eye bags under my eyes had disappeared, replaced by my light brown skin, the unkempt hair that I usually had disappeared, replaced by my glossy straight hair I had when I was 16 years old.

I stood there as if paralyzed, eventually, I had realised that I had been standing there for 15 minutes, just looking into the mirror endlessly.

I went to the door, opening the door I saw my parents.

I started to cry, seeing my parents who had always been supportive of me.

They saw me crying and thought that something was wrong so they rushed over to me.

"Whats wrong?" My mother asked me.

I just looked at them, I couldn't tell them how much I had wanted to see them again, to be loved by them again.

"Nothing, I just suddenly felt like crying" I replied, I knew my parents wouldn't believe me, but that didn't really matter at the time, I could easily think of something to tell them but I didn't want to lie to my parents anymore, I didn't want them to suffer the hardship I had put them through before.

I dried my tears on my t-shirt, then I went to get breakfast, they get a bit confused about that, but they just shrug it and head back to the table.

After finishing my breakfast I realized that it was the day before my birthday.

It was also the day before I get my Pandora capsule, three days before my personality changed and I became more demanding.

I was also reminded of the fact that my mother and father liked to take days off, especially around my birthday, they would each take 3 days off, the day before, my birthday and the day after.

After I finished breakfast, I started to plan out everything, how to earn a large amount of money and fast with the knowledge I possess about this game, although I don't know if the game will be exactly the same as it was the last time I played it.

After I finished strategizing for the day, it was late, so I decided to go to sleep.

...

The next day I woke midday, I went to the living room where my parents were, they looked a bit tired, it wasn't as obvious on my mothers face as she wore makeup, but you could tell from the detail of the banners and all the decorations that they had put their all into making my birthday special for me.

After all the small gifts and cards were given to me it was then that my father had the engineers install the Pandora capsule in my bedroom, although I had got it, I knew from the last time I received the capsule that the game wouldn't be open for another 2 days, even though I could create my own character there weren't any benefits from doing that straight away.

I ended up spending the rest of my day with my parents, it didn't matter what we talked about, I just wanted to talk to them, I hadn't seen them in a very long time and it was about time for me to catch up and listen to what they want to hear, we ended up talking until midnight, then everyone went to bed.

...

The next day I woke up refreshed and happy, it had been a long time since I woke up happy, immediately after waking up I made sure to wash properly making sure that I would always look my best in front of my parents.

After breakfast I went back to my room, it was time to create my character, although you don't get anything for creating a character quicker, the first 1,000,000 people will get a random skill when starting the game, last time I played as a mage and got the skill backstab, this time I'm playing as a thief.

"Hopefully I don't get a skill that is useless for my class this time."

After saying that I went into the capsule.

"Would you like to create your character?"

It was the same voice as the last time.

"Yes"
