Chapter 16: Passed Like A Dog (2)
Before I knew it, I’d become a dog.
How could life be this tumultuous?
When it became dawn and the emotional haze that had controlled my frontal lobe dissipated, I had spent some time reflecting on the bullshit I spewed the night before.
I hadn’t expected Hasfeldt to burst into the shed abruptly without warning. I should have gotten rid of my application paper as soon as I came back in case something like this happened.
Once I finished giving myself feedback and concluded that I need to be more careful in the future, I stared off blankly into space.
“Ah.”
What’s the point of trying to improve myself? It’s already been a week.
I didn’t know if Hasfeldt changed her mind. But for the moment, her plan to use me to the fullest before sending me off to the palace seemed to be postponed until after the start of school.
Either way, the quality of my life was decreasing exponentially.
Wake up at 5 a.m. and get off work after midnight. My pay was zero, of course.
I couldn’t even call it getting off of work because I’d been stuck with Professor Hasfeldt for the whole week. The only time I could catch up on sleep was when she was away at summer classes for a couple hours a day.
