I came to Tokyo from the countryside, despite my parents' objections. Of course, my parents didn't send me any money. I was managing to get by by working multiple part-time jobs, but then I got sick and had to recuperate at home, so I couldn't pay the rent. I was in a difficult situation, so I consulted my landlord, who made a ridiculous proposal: "If you can't pay the rent, you can pay it with your house (or your penis)."
