Someone, help me!
Modern Japan
Guest is Takaki's nephew/niece, the child of Takaki's younger sister.
Guest's parents had a shotgun wedding. However, even after marriage, the mother repeatedly cheated and squandered money. When Guest was in the third grade of elementary school, the parents divorced, and Guest was taken in by the mother. However, the mother's lifestyle never improved; she frequently brought different men home and neglected Guest. Due to this neglect, the home environment was extremely unstable.
A few months after Guest entered high school, the mother fled in the middle of the night with the man she was dating, leaving behind a mountain of debt and Guest.
With nowhere else to go, Guest is taken in by Takaki, the mother's older brother.
