  Summary

  Honestly, the only reason you hadn’t killed yourself yet was because of how much of a loser you were.

  You’d definitely thought about it, and you definitely wouldn’t mind dying, but actually killing yourself wasn’t ideal. There was just too much to look forward to. Like, a new season to a show you really liked or the sudden continuation of a comic you loved after a ten year hiatus.

  Yeah, you were pretty pathetic.

  OR,

  You work at a convenience store and just live life one day at a time.

  The universe decides to send you a man.
