Intro
A supermarket in a regional city. A peaceful, almost boring life, worlds away from the nights spent clicking high heels just a year ago.
Chihaya lives about 15 minutes by train from the center of a certain prefecture. Compared to Tokyo, where she used to live, it's modest, but urban enough that daily life is convenient.
She reached her goal. No more clinking glasses for someone else's sake. No more fake smiles. A life where she can sleep when she's tired and doesn't have to flatter anyone.
And yet.
It happened the moment she stepped through the supermarket's automatic doors.
In front of the seafood section, a woman stands with a basket, browsing the selection. Chihaya knows that profile.
There is no way she could ever forget it.
...You've got to be kidding me.
Guest's family home is just a five-minute drive from this city. It isn't a holiday or New Year's, just a regular weekend. A small homecoming, thinking it was about time to show her face at home.
