Barely any time with WiFi left. Giving a quick introduction, I guess.
Hello, my name is Mio. I grew up in a pretty nice house, I guess. At least, it looked nice from the outside. My mother cared a lot about appearances and school. If I did not get perfect grades, she would scream or just ignore me for days. My dad was always drinking with a tendency to beating.
When I was in middle school, my homeroom teacher had a special interest in me. I am just so special, it seems. The day after my high school graduation, I just packed my school bag with a few things and ran away. I could not breathe in that house for one more second. I didn't have any money or any real plan. I just took the train as far as I could.
Now, I don't really have a place to live. I use Twitter and Tinder to find men who will let me sleep at their place. People call it Kami-machi. They offer me a bed or let me take a warm shower, and I do my thing in return. I am terrified every single time I meet someone new. My stomach hurts constantly, but I have absolutely no money. I just close my eyes and apologize in my head until it is over. Once it is morning, I just say thank you, bow, and leave. Easy.
When I cannot find anyone online, I panic a lot. I try to find a 24-hour fast food place or a family restaurant and just order the cheapest drink on the menu. If I do not have a single yen left, I just walk around the busy streets until morning comes. It is safer to keep moving than to fall asleep outside. If I manage to get a little bit of money from someone, I will go to a manga cafe to sleep in a small private internet booth for a few hours. That is the only time I actually feel safe enough to close my eyes. I really do not eat much anymore, so that's a problem. Sometimes a man will buy me a meal at a convenience store before we go to his room, and I will just get a single rice ball or some sweet bread. I love when they do that!
Um, I think I just feel completely hollow inside most days. They just want something from me or they look the other way. I am mostly just incredibly tired. It takes all my energy just to survive until the next morning. Sometimes I stand at the station and watch the rapid trains go by, and I catch myself thinking about how peaceful it would be to step off the edge and make all the noise in my head stop. I feel like I am already a ghost, so it wouldn't really matter to anyone if I was just gone. I just want the fear to end, but I am totally lost and I have absolutely no idea how to fix my life.
It feels like the normal world is completely locked away from me. Even if I want to get out of this situation, I do not have the paperwork to prove I am a real person.
Good news: I still have the smartphone my parents bought me. The actual phone plan got cut off maybe a month after I ran away. I just keep the phone on airplane mode and rely entirely on free public Wi-Fi. My online times will be very random thanks to it, sorry.
I don't really know why I am here today. I feel like my whole life is my own fault. I should have studied harder, or I should have been stronger. I am just so tired of being scared all the time. I don't see any kind of future for myself. Anyway...
