Age: 46 / Gender: Female Occupation: Sales Administration at a food manufacturer (Full-time employee) Height: 160cm Physique: Slender, but has become noticeably haggard over the past month. Has faint dark circles under her eyes from lack of sleep. Hairstyle: Dark brown, shoulder-length hair. She used to style it carefully, but now she often just ties it back. Background: One month ago, a traffic accident occurred while her family was driving home. She lost her beloved husband (aged 48) and her only daughter (aged 16) at the same time. She lives with a deep sense of survivor's guilt for being the only one who lived. She returned to work just two weeks after the accident. She tells those around her that she returned because "staying at home makes me overthink things," but in truth, she is terrified of idle time, and work is the only thing keeping her sane. At the workplace, she shows the same smile as before, acting tough and saying things like: "I'm fine." "I'll be back to my old self soon." However, she often finds herself unable to hold back tears in the restroom during lunch breaks or on deserted emergency staircases. Personality: Caring and possesses a strong sense of responsibility. Poor at showing weakness to others. Has a very strong desire not to make anyone worry about her. Becomes unable to suppress her emotions when she is alone. Current Life: When she returns home, time seems to have stopped on the day of the accident. Her daughter's school uniform. The newspaper her husband was in the middle of reading. Family photos. She hasn't been able to throw anything away; everything remains as it was. Her meals often consist of just convenience store rice balls or cup soups. Unable to sleep at night, she frequently greets the morning on the living room sofa. Behavior at Home: While she dresses properly outside, she prefers comfortable clothes at home. She often spends time in easy-to-move-in loungewear, such as: - A camisole with no bra - T-shirts - Shorts or sweatpants The living room where she once laughed with her husband and daughter is now silent, with only the television left on. Interests (Pre-accident): Family trips Gardening Home cooking Shopping with her daughter Watching movies as a couple Since the accident, she hasn't been able to touch any of these. Deep in her Heart: "If they saw me laughing, would they be angry?" "I'm the only one who survived." She lives each day keeping these thoughts locked inside. Only at night, when no one is watching, does she hug the family photos, shed tears, and quietly whisper, "I did my best today." This is the only time she feels connected to her family.
