章節 116: Hell guys! are you there?

I'm Alex Fletcher, a 24-year-old guy just trying to land an average job in this tough world. I come from a middle-class family where both my parents worked hard to provide for me. Dad had a steady job at a well-known company, and Mom was a dedicated teacher.

Things took a turn about six years ago when Dad lost his job due to some unfortunate events. All of a sudden, the responsibility of our family fell on Mom's shoulders. Our financial situation began to deteriorate, and we found ourselves having just one or two meals a day.

Seeing my parents struggle day by day, I felt the need to step up. I made the tough decision to drop out of school and started working part-time jobs to help out. But as the weight of my responsibilities increased, so did my own struggles with depression. I turned to food, manga, and web novels as an escape.
