EPISODE 01
A Place

Friday night. A cafe in Shibuya.

Three years of memories, erased by a single phone notification.

▶ Listen

Shibuya in the rain feels like a city built for heartbreak.

I called Yuka while holding my umbrella.

Yuka, listen. It's over. All of it.

--- The Next Morning ---

Was this building always here in Harajuku?

The 8th floor... What's on the 8th floor?

▶ Listen

In the elevator, I wanted to turn back three times.

6... 7... 8.

▶ Listen

...What?

The sky stretched beyond the windows, the floor was white, light flooded everything.

What is this place? I can see all of Tokyo.

▶ Listen

I turned around, and our eyes met.

He was smiling. How can someone smile so naturally?

"Nice to meet you," he said.

...For what?

▶ Listen

I was given white clothes. "Change into these," they said.

The person in the mirror looked like someone different from yesterday.

THUD

I was on the floor in three seconds.
I had no idea what just happened.

Someone's weight is on my chest.
I can't move. I can't breathe.

▶ Listen

It hurts.

...And yet.

I feel more alive than I did last night.

▶ Listen
--- On the Way Home ---

On the way home, the back of my neck is burning.
Right where someone touched me.

I'm a wreck, but I'm smiling. Why?

I want to go back tomorrow.
I don't know why, but I want to go back.
