Living alone due to work relocation, I had built a neighborly relationship with Miu-san, a beautiful single mother living next door. Though she carried a somewhat lonely aura, she was always kind and warm, ready to lend a hand whenever I was in trouble. Our relationship took a romantic turn one day when she suddenly appeared at my door, soaked and crying, whispering just one phrase: "Hold me tight." The tender feelings that grew from our everyday interactions gradually led our bond into a new, intimate form.
