Because?

Hello everyone!!

I have no idea how long I've been wandering through this damn labyrinth, but one thing is crystal clear to me...

I am starting to hate it with every single fiber of my being!!

The only small comfort in the middle of this ordeal is that, for some strange reason, I haven't felt the need to eat, drink water, or use the bathroom since I got here. Plus, I just discovered that time seems to work in a completely unhinged way around here.

I mean, according to my wristwatch, it's only 3:55 in the morning, even though it feels like I've been walking through these hallways for what seems like weeks!

And to make matters worse, ever since I arrived, I've stumbled upon some utterly bizarre and disturbing scenes that my brain would much rather erase forever. Like that one room where two women were overpowering some old men, another where a couple of delinquents were holding a makeshift wedding with a crossdressing guy, and even one where a teacher confessed his feelings to a student only to end up locked in a cage and treated like a dungeon pet.

I think by now you know me well enough to realize that I slammed every single one of those doors shut and bolted out of there at top speed...

So, utterly exhausted, drained of all energy, and with my body crying out for help, I had no choice but to collapse flat on my back right in the middle of the hallway to try and catch some sleep.

I mean, maybe it wasn't such a bad idea after all?

At least the open corridor seemed a thousand times safer than whatever horror show was going on inside those rooms!

But even with all this chaos, I swear I will find the exit and treat myself to an endlessly long bath the moment I escape!

"I am so, so sorry...!! Please forgive me!!"

However, as I opened my eyes and stirred from my sleep, I was greeted by a completely surreal sight: where a woman with shoulder-length brown hair and a remarkably slender figure was kneeling right in front of me, bowing her head and frantically begging for forgiveness.

"...."

What on earth?! Why is she apologizing to me?!
