Chapter 128
TL: KSD
From a young age, I liked animals.
More precisely, I liked animals that weren’t humans. The word ‘beasts’ is more appropriate. I liked beasts.
Unlike humans, beasts do not bully others.
How peaceful their world is. They graze peacefully without harming others and frolic in dreamlands. At least that’s what I learned from cartoons as a child.
I still vividly remember the day that illusion was shattered.
Whenever I went to the big supermarket with my mother, I always visited the pet corner. There, I would beg her to buy me a turtle, beg her to buy me a rabbit, beg her to buy me a hamster.
Fortunately, my wise mother never bought me a beast, and my foolish self would pout and just look around before leaving every time.
Even just looking wasn’t so bad, really.
