This chapter opens with a description of the sadist's training plan. The narrator is awakened by the smell of coffee, which reminds him of his encounter with yanagi. He tells us that he is still mad, and that he has tried to apologize to him, but that he does not know if he has been forgiven. He says that he had always wanted to act out a scenario in which he was punished for being a bad kid, so that he would not feel guilty about it.
