Hello there,
you may not know me, but I know you. I know everything about you. I know what you wear, what you eat, what you drink
and even what kind of air you breath. Lemme introduce myself: I'm the man in the alley, a salesman. And this is my story.
I wasn't born in Candy world, but on this planet called Earth. I had a pretty normal life there: I had a family, friends and a dog.
No girlfriend though, she cheated on me with this Bob. I don't like Bob. Stupid cactus.
One day, I was walking with my dog in the park. You know, a normal day as always. That was what I thought. A lot of things
happened that day. To put it simply: I got kidnapped by three weird people. They took me to this world and offered me a job
and a chance to start over. To be honest, I was not very happy with my life. My parents wouldn't miss me, they had my talented
sister. My friends had each other, so I had nothing to lose and took the job. I regret nothing, because I became what I am now:
a handsome salesman. Well... lately I feel that I am not needed here... and I am not the only one who has that thought...A new day
has come, that means new chances... that was what I thought this morning. I'm starting to hate my job. Three weeks have passed
and I haven't sold anything. Nothing! Well nothing to other citizens than Jinyoung. And now, I even have to store my products in
my own house! And I don't even own a house. Jinyoung stopped by yesterday. He asked for boxes, but I couldn't give him any. The
boxes were filled with supplies. He complained that he had to fold his own boxes now. I'm sorry dude. He left after that. Well, he also
bought a candy maker and took the box with him. He should do something about his obsession for boxes. After he left, I noticed a note
on the ground. He probably had dropped it. I looked at it and what I read, shocked me deeply. The alley would be destroyed... they
were gonna build a new shopping centre. That's why Jinyoung ran away. It was the first time I saw him running away from me. Then,
at that very moment, the puzzle pieces fell on their places. It explained everything: the chaos at the Announcement board at the
Candy Courtyard, the few visits, the glares squirrels gave me. Everything made sense. I went to the Announcement board. Everyone
was screaming and yelling. I was watching the whole thing. Nobody cared about me. Nobody asked a thing about me. They only yelled
and screamed names of shops. I was hurt, but I couldn't do anything about it. They have already started building the shopping centre.
It looked very modern and classy... so different from the chocolate alley.
After awhile, I got tired of watching crazy people, so I went back to the alley. I realized this was the last time I would be walking on these
chocolate tiles, the last time appearing out of the shadows... I should cherish these last days. At the end of the week the alley would
be forgotten.. forever...
I remembered the first person who visited this place, Gong Chansik. He was a good guy. If he just came alone here, everything would be
fine. However, two girls came along. They ruined everything. They kept saying that I was a e... the only thing I wanted to do was
selling Gongchan a doll. A pretty doll that I found in the trashcan. He wanted to buy me first, but I offered him a doll version of me. Maybe
there was something wrong with that doll... I don't remember anymore. Jihyun and IU kept saying the doll was dangerous and they even
taekwondo kicked that doll to the other side of the paradise. Then they took Channie away. Because Gongchan looked very sad, I took my
rocket shoes, flew to the other end of the paradise and got the doll back. Then I crept to the boys dorm, threw it through the window and
flew away.... Now I think about it... I haven't asked him for a payment! 
The second person who visited the place was Ailee. She was cold or something. I saw a good chance to offer some new stuff. After I asked
her what she wanted to buy, Yongguk came and told her to not look at me. Then Minzy jumped in and said the same. She even called me
a troll!I mean, I'm wearing a cape and a hat, but you can't just call me a troll. I mean, trolls have feelings too! And by the way, I'm gorgeous.
But she didn't only called me a troll, but a flasher too! Or it was Yongguk who called me like that.. I don't remember. Trench coats were
the must-have things at that time. Before I could defend myself against those lies, they walked away.... I think that you know now why
I started to hate my job.
Then Ara and Jia stopped by, but I hadn't got any new stuff to sell, so I didn't show up. And if I did, people would call me a creepy ert and
run away. I know, I was not doing my job right, but who would care? Who would check? I mean it, we don't have police here or a mayor, so I
was safe. I spent the days watching some good movies. My heart had been torn apart into thousands pieces. I could completely relate to
the main characters. So much hardship, so many feelings. To heal my heart, I crept around couples and watched them all acting lovey-dovey.
The last person who visited this place before it was gonna be revamped, was Dahyun. (Okay, Jia was technically the last one who visited the
place, but I hadn't spoken to her.. ) She bit in a lamp post, thinking it was made of chocolate. This silly girl. I showed up and asked her what
she wanted to buy. I think I scared her, because she hid behind Sooyoung. However, Sooyoung wasn't afraid and asked me with a British
accent what we had to offer. I wanted to give her a moustache that fitted her accent. I think she thought that she was at a restaurant or
something... She wanted a strawberry lollipop with rainbow sprinkles on it and chocolate syrup eventually. Yes I said eventually, because
out of the blue Dahyun shouted that I was a ert. To make things worse, Youngjae stopped by and said that I was one ert and that
I hung too much around Yongguk! He even put some warning signs around the place: WARNING: BEWARE OF ERTED MEN AKA YONGGUK
AND JINYOUNG. Later I kicked those signs out of this world. Youngjae is a ert himself. He only tries to look innocent, but we all know
he isn't that innocent... no one is... Dahyun ignored the warning of Youngjae and asked for mashmallows with faces on it. Luckily I had
planted a few of them in the Candy Cane forest. After I explained how to take care of the marshmallows, she told me she wanted to eat
them! My children! Of course I said no! The monsters! I don't remember what happened next. They kept talking about Bacon, Eggs,
Baozi... I didn't understand a thing and just disappeared.
That was the last person I have ever talked to as the man in the alley. Now the alley is gonna be destroyed, I have lost the alley in my name.
Now they are gonna call me the creepy man or the man who lost his girlfriend to a cactus. I still hate Bob. Only his name is enough to make
me puke rainbows. Wait... I can't let the other people win. I am the man in the alley! Those es should be crawling for me. I am not
gonna let a little thing like a shopping centre stop me. I will take my revenge! How dare they to start building in my territory without
informing me! Without asking me for permission! They are gonna pay for what they did to me! They are gonna feel the wrath of the Mighty
MITA. (That stands for man in the alley)Thank you stranger. Thank you for listening to me. Thank you for your attention. I did what
I wanted to do. I have shown them that I am not just gonna disappear like that... I HAVE RESERVED A SHOP IN THE SHOPPING CENTRE!
I guess I will see you there, I have special stuff to offer you... come here.
