My eyes narrow as I look at the clock. I see the number"11," and I feel totally empty. My knees hurt, and my throat is dry. How many hours have I worked? I gradually raise my left hand toward my face. The palm of my hand wipes my eye as my right hand puts a chocolate bar on a shelf. I stand up, turn to face the fridge window, and see myself alone in a convenience store. Isn't he supposed to come to help me? Where are you, Eric? While a stupid question comes up in my mind, my phone somehow finds a way to wake me up. I don't want to take it out of my pocket. I know he wouldn't come. He never works as late as I do. Even if Manager Kim forces him to, he has an unpleasant but efficient way to respond to people and get what he wants from them. "Persuasive speech," nothing more, nothing less. I'm not like him. I work when and where people want me to. I look at my phone and see an unusual red message.

The phone shines really hard as I fall calmly on the floor. She stood behind the door ,looking at me with disgust. The phone's ringing .
-Stand proud rankers , because you all have been chosen to climb the narrow building create by our ancestor.
-Shall your journey in the tower begins.
