Chapter 1-journey from happiness to sadness

In America, there was a very rich man named Zoro. He was very happy in his life. Whatever he thought, everything came true. But one wish of his did not come true, and this wish is...

But as we know, "Happiness is not forever."

One day, he was walking with his girlfriend. He was ready to propose to her. He said, "Will you—" but before he could finish, he felt a wave of dizziness. Everything went dark, and he collapsed. His girlfriend screamed, and people around them rushed to help, carrying him to the hospital.

After examining him, the doctors looked grim.

"Zoro," one of them said, "I'm afraid you have a very rare disease. Only two people in the world have ever been diagnosed with it."

"Is there no cure?" Zoro asked, his voice weak.

They told him, "No..."

Ha! But the second case in the world had happened in Japan, and the person who had it was a girl whose mother was a doctor. She could not cure the disease but tried very hard to find out why. Despite many efforts, the girl was kept alive from 2 months to two years.

Zoro and his friend felt a bit better, but now the girl's mother had left the medical profession.

Zoro's friend, whose name is Adam and who is also Zoro's manager, asked, "What kind of disease is it?"

The doctor told Adam, "I don't know, but I know that in this disease, if your heartbeat goes above 100 or drops below 50, your time starts decreasing. From two months, now it's up to you to make sure your heartbeat doesn't rise above 100. Oh, and the name of this disease is... 'The Precious Person.'"

(After this discussion, they left the room.)

Later, outside the hospital, Zoro's girlfriend looked at him sadly.

"I'm sorry," she said, "but I can't stay with you. I heard everything, and... I don't have time to waste on this."

With that, she walked away, leaving Zoro standing there, heartbroken.

(In his mind) "I can't be with you, we can't be with you, sorry, I can't be with you..."

(Suddenly, it starts to rain)

Aha!

Zoro sadly asked Adam, "Why does it happen every time with me?"

Who, till yesterday, was the happiest person in the world, today he is the saddest person in the world.

(Two days later)

They go to Japan.

(On the flight)

Adam: "...Ahaaa!!! We don't know Japanese!"

Zoro: "But I know."
