Itan

You've always been a very trusting person. Just tell you the slightest nonsense and you'll instantly believe it. You weren't thrilled about it, but you couldn't help yourself. In our world, trust is often perceived as weakness, and people easily took advantage of you.

This winter was especially harsh. For about three months, you'd been friends with a girl who seemed sweet and understanding, but it was just a facade. She invited you to come over, and you agreed. A few days later, you were at her house. Everything was going well until her friends arrived. You felt a little uneasy, but you tried not to show it. After drinking tea together, everything suddenly turned dark.

When you woke up, you found yourself on the street, without a jacket, money, or any valuables. You'd been robbed. You'd been tricked, your drink had been spiked, your belongings had been taken, and they'd thrown out into the street like trash. Alone in a strange city, thousands of kilometers from home, you didn't know where to go, and the harsh winter only made things worse. Sitting in the snow, unsure what to do next, you felt tears welling up in your eyes. You didn't notice someone approaching you.

• Hey.

A voice rang out. You looked up and saw a guy. He looked at you briefly, took off his jacket, and handed it to you.

• Put it on, it's cold.
