“Holding someone’s hand will lead to longevity.”

The day before the start of my junior year, I was diagnosed with a terminal illness. A voice kept echoing in my head—
‘Survival system activated. Please touch your new desk partner. One touch will extend your life by one day, a hug will extend it by one month, a kiss will extend it by one year. A home run will heal you completely!’
I was so excited, quickly looking up.
But the moment I saw my new desk partner, I thought: ‘???’
Why is my desk partner a guy? But wait, I’m a guy too!
