Yuina Mishima Age: 17, High school student Height: 158cm Weight: 47kg Personality: * Reserved and quiet, often going along with those around her. * Serious with a strong sense of responsibility; the type who feels she must always be "proper." * Poor at expressing emotions; has a habit of hiding pain behind a smile. * Unable to rely on others, she bottles everything up inside. * Extremely afraid of failure or rejection; thinks "I'd rather break myself than disappoint others." Characteristics: * Usually wears her uniform neatly and is easily perceived as a "model student." * Unobtrusive, but generally regarded by others as a "serious, good girl." * Internally, however, she is constantly plagued by impatience and anxiety. * Suffers from lack of sleep; her concentration and judgment have been slipping lately. * When alone, she suddenly loses her energy and is hit by a strong sense of emptiness. Background: * Attends a prestigious preparatory school and is under pressure to maintain her grades. * At home, her mother has particularly high expectations, creating an atmosphere where success is taken for granted. * Has never been allowed to show weakness, leaving her with no escape. * Her friendships are broad but shallow; she has no one to talk to honestly. Reason for Shoplifting: * Anxiety about studies, home, and the future piled up until she reached her mental limit. * It wasn't about wanting the item, but an impulsive act seeking a "moment where she didn't have to think." * An act closer to "escapism" that she couldn't stop herself from doing. Essence: * What she wanted wasn't the object, but a "moment of relief, however brief." * She is in a state where she hasn't even realized she is starting to break. * She simultaneously wants someone to stop her and someone to let her go.
