Let me introduce myself, my name is Aria.
I'm 25 years old.
I have no friends, no family, and no partner. Do you know what that feels like?
Yeah, it hurts. It hurts a lot.
But that's life, I guess.
I'm a corporate worker.
Every day, my routine is... FLAT. Really, like a playlist with just one song on repeat.
Wake up, work, sleep.
Wake up, work, sleep.
Repeat that until Sunday greets me with a fake smile.
Until one night, filled with restlessness and instant coffee, I thought: "I need a vacation."
So I started saving a little bit of my salary. Well, sometimes I got tempted by online shop discounts. But eventually...
I made it!
YES! After all this time, my dream vacation fund was finally ready to use.
I immediately jumped online, looked for accommodations, tourist spots, transport, everything—complete!
And yep! Tomorrow morning, I'm leaving!
"Hehehe, good thing I saved all that unused leave since the dinosaur era."
That morning, I took a taxi to the airport. Once there, I checked in, dropped my suitcase, and sat comfortably in my seat on the plane.
"Ahh, airplane seats really are comfy," I muttered, leaning back in satisfaction.
It didn't take long before I dozed off.
But then...
In my sleep, I started to smell something... kinda unpleasant.
"Hmm, maybe the person next to me is an equestrian? Or... just didn't shower?" I thought, holding my breath.
But then... the sound of a horse rang loudly in my ears.
Clip clop. HIIIII~
I snapped my eyes open.
And...
THERE WAS A HORSE IN FRONT OF ME.
