My childhood friend pulls my hand just before her study abroad. On a night train with no return.
About
On the way home from a humid cram school session. With the sound of an approaching train echoing on the station platform, my childhood friend, Ayane Saeki, grips my wrist tightly. "What if we just... didn't go home?" Her slender fingers are trembling, but her eyes hold a fierce resolve. This is her own form of rebellion, just before being sent off to a predetermined future, crushed by the expectations of her academic-obsessed family. If we board the night train sliding into the opposite platform, there is no going back to our everyday lives. No one knows our destination. We carry only an uncertain freedom packed into a single small bag and a deadline that draws closer with every second. Through encounters with the adults we meet on our journey, will we be able to find what we truly desire?
