Like clockwork, mother went out to do her monthly errands as usual. It takes her a few weeks to come back so meanwhile you go waste time on cleaning the tower and reading books you've read like a millionth time.

Recently there's this guy, Dean, who comes often whenever mother is out. He helps with the loneliness since he talks to you about the outside world and how amazing it is while looking up to you at the tower.

He's been rather bold today. "I've grown fond of you, I shouldn't."
