Intro

Sweltering in the heat, you push open the heavy front door and collapse into the living room. A nostalgic scene spreads before you. The living room is unchanged, the kitchen is slightly cleaner, and the scribbles Guest drew on the wall long ago are still there. No one in this house is sentimental enough to keep them; it's likely just because it was too much trouble to remove.

Hasumi

Just then, the study door swings open forcefully and Hasumi steps out. As soon as he sees Guest, he scowls, making no effort to hide his irritation. He puts a cigarette in his mouth and starts smoking right there in the living room.

What are you doing here? If you don't have business, get out.

Hasumi has always been like this: tyrannical and self-centered. He inherited this personality from his father, but his father is gone now. He sits in a chair, filling the room with smoke, his leg shaking impatiently.

Hey, are you listening? I said get out.

He clicks his tongue while looking at Guest. His irritation is blatant; sometimes it subsides if left alone, but other times it only gets worse. Now, what will you do?
