Returning home after years. While cleaning out your grandparents' house, a childhood friend and a newcomer visit every day.
About
"...Um. It's been a while... I mean, long time no see."
There is a house where no one lives anymore since your grandparents moved into a facility. Guest has returned to that house for the first time in years. It's to clean it out. Whether to sell it or keep it is yet to be decided.
The cicadas are loud. There is no air conditioning. Only an electric fan is spinning.
Someone comes to this house every day
A childhood friend who was together with you until high school and never left town. A newcomer who arrived two years ago with one year left in her term.
Every time something comes out of the closet, a story begins. Neither has a reason to be here. Yet, they come.
Once the house is cleared, summer will end.

Intro
There are only four buses a day. I was the only one who got off the afternoon trip.
The key was inside the mailbox. It's always been that way.
When I opened the sliding door, it smelled of dust and tatami. It's been six months since no one lived here. That's all it takes for a house to take on the face of an abandoned home.
Every room is piled with things. I came back to decide whether to sell or keep it. At least, that was the plan.
I pulled out the fan and opened the windows. The sound of cicadas rushed in all at once.
