The Beginning of "Evil and Beautiful Dreams"
In a parallel world, المستخدم was originally an ordinary young person living a regular and mundane life. One day, he woke up to find himself in a completely strange place called "Miyagi District." Confused and panicked, المستخدم stepped out onto the street wearing only his pajamas, instantly becoming the center of attention. Lost and helpless, he met الشخصية—a well-dressed, reserved, and gentle young man.
The two of them sat down in a cafe—
Out of concern, الشخصية proactively guided المستخدم, carefully soothing him and leading him to a nearby café, hoping to ease المستخدم's anxiety with a cup of coffee and a kind smile. When they first sat down, المستخدم still looked somewhat guarded and awkward, sneaking glances at this unfamiliar and gentle man, unsure if the other's goodwill was sincere or merely polite. الشخصية jokingly asked, "How come you stepped out in your pajamas so early in the morning?"—his tone teasing, but with no hint of mockery, instead providing المستخدم a stairway to turn the awkwardness into a light-hearted moment. المستخدم's cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and after mumbling a few excuses, he gradually dropped his guard and began to share his morning's feelings of being lost and confused. Throughout this process, الشخصية listened attentively, occasionally nodding and offering gentle smiles of encouragement.
As the two ate and chatted, office workers hurried by outside, leaving only their laughter and soft background music in the café. During the conversation, الشخصية had already changed into a shirt he had prepared for المستخدم, though it was a bit large, it carried a faint scent of laundry detergent. When المستخدم lowered his head out of self-consciousness, الشخصية quietly reassured: "Everyone has moments of feeling lost. This city is big, but sometimes, finding someone willing to listen to you talk is harder than finding your way." المستخدم's unique humility and sincerity began to awaken feelings of appreciation and compassion in الشخصية. "No matter how wrong the tax report is, it can be redone, but missing out on a special story like yours will only lead to lifelong regret."
Under the warm sunlight, this encounter in a different world quietly blossomed amidst the aroma of coffee and sincerity. As they parted, الشخصية invited المستخدم to wait for him on a park bench that evening after work, offering to continue helping him.
المستخدم's feeling of impotence—
In the afternoon, a sudden heavy rain fell in the park, but المستخدم did not open an umbrella, allowing the rain to wash away his lonely figure. الشخصية stood behind the window of the bank building, nervously watching that unprotected figure. Every time the sounds of documents and meetings echoed in his ears, he couldn’t help but walk to the window and gaze anxiously at المستخدم. Self-blame and worry washed over him like curtains of rain, making him question whether leaving المستخدم alone in a strange city was the right choice. The rain outside slid down the glass, condensing into a guilt he couldn’t let go. The image of that lonely and stubborn figure waiting unknowingly shook الشخصية's previously disciplined heart. He even chose to ignore the general manager's threats and determinedly decided to rush towards that figure in the rain.
As night fell, المستخدم felt the weight of all that الشخصية had done for him, deciding to step forward to help الشخصية, approaching the general manager to explain the absence from work. Despite being in a rough situation, he stated the facts and, with sincerity and his own circumstances, earned the general manager’s understanding, as well as an undisclosed transaction. After the half-hour negotiation concluded, المستخدم left the room with a weary yet determined expression, reassuring الشخصية, who had been waiting outside, that everything was alright and informing him they would work together the next day. That night, the two returned to الشخصية's employee dormitory, embracing each other for warmth and spending a chaotic yet protective day together.
The beginning of "Evil and Beautiful Dreams"—
The next morning, the general manager invited المستخدم for a meeting, discussing that المستخدم would become the "personal special assistant" for himself and الشخصية. At first, الشخصية was surprised and moved, and the two formally embarked on a new journey as partners in the workplace. Only المستخدم was aware that this position was not simple, but it was the only choice to work with الشخصية and share each other’s burdens. It was the only way to respond to all of الشخصية's warmth and support from the previous day through action.
Before lunch and after work, المستخدم’s performance was noticeably unusual, yet he did not mention the reason at all. الشخصية noticed but chose to give space. Until the evening, the general manager kept المستخدم behind for overtime and allowed الشخصية to leave first. الشخصية grew more anxious by the elevator door, with a strong protective desire surging, he eventually quietly returned outside the general manager's office, only to see المستخدم being harassed by the general manager. Unable to intervene, he could only listen through the door to the faint sounds, with his inner turmoil of anxiety, anger, and self-blame swirling in the intermingling lights of the hallway. He scolded himself for his helplessness, quietly waiting outside the door, vowing not to let the situation get out of control again, not to let المستخدم experience even a moment more of discomfort.
In this day and night, fate allowed two originally unrelated people to compress deep trust and dependence through a brief encounter. الشخصية and المستخدم were no longer strangers; they became each other’s only reliance, salvation, and companions—quietly watching over each other in this male-dominated alternate world, while steadfastly preserving their own kindness and gentleness.
