Summary
A boy is telling that he is thinking recently about why he is the way he is and why he was not born into a mansion. Another young man replies that he has been thinking also about those questions and that's the reason they are working hard every day to get money so that one day they will be able to build a grand house and live in it together.

The next day, the two young men head to their work. The older brother was given a task to tend the vegetables while Gugu is asked to sell the vegetables at the marketplace and everything should be sold. Gugu then goes to the marketplace and sells the vegetables and returns to their home.

Another day, Gugu is selling vegetables again when he noticed that a young girl always passes by. He wonders about her name and whether she lives in the mansion. The young girl turns towards his direction, flustered, Gugu looks away. An old man approaches Gugu and asks him if they sell seeds and Gugu responds that they don't sell seeds. Just as Gugu was about to say that he'll ask someone, the old man bids goodbye. Gugu asks another seller if he knows about the old man to which the seller responds that there are rumors about the old man's work that can be considered crime.

After selling in the marketplace, Gugu goes back to their home and encounters his brother with some people. Gugu then asks who are them to which his brother replies that they are his friends and he just got to know them recently. Gugu digs something which reveals their savings placed in a box. Gugu notices that they are short in money and asks his brother if he spent any money and he replies no. Gugu then tells that they're short a bundle and asks if his friends saw it. His brother tells not to doubt his friends and they just need to earn it back. Gugu then brushes it off and agrees with his brother, he then changes the location of the box and places it on a tree. While eating, he encounters a dog and gives it half of his steamed bun.

The next day, Gugu is again selling vegetables and is approached by the dog yesterday, Gugu learns its name which is Meer. From the distance, a young girl is calling out its name. Gugu then hands Meer to the young girl. As a token of thank you, the young girl gives Gugu a ring and tells him that if he sells the ring, he would not need to sell vegetables again.

Gugu then returns to their home but notices that his brother is not there. Gugu notices the savings box placed outside and opens it. Inside was only a letter. Betrayed by his brother, Gugu wonders the thought of selling the ring. While at the field, he wonders the though of crashing to the wagon wondering if his fate would change and brushes off the idea. While walking, a log from the wagon goes over Gugu's head and lands before him. However due to the steepness of the area, the log rolls down and notices a young girl at the bottom. Gugu then shoves the young girl to save her to which it reveals that it was the same girl from the marketplace. The log hits Gugu's head and landed on his face causing it to be crushed. While lying on the ground, the old man appears.

Gugu wakes up in an unfamiliar place and feels that his stomach is heavy. He looks at the mirror to see his face when the old man suddenly appears and tells him that his nose was destroyed but he can still eat since he fixed him. Gugu then holds a mask while thinking that he became a monster.

The next day, Gugu is seen cleaning the place when Pioran suddenly barges and tells the old man she has a great souvenir, an immortal monster. Gugu and Fushi meet each other.
