I grew up in the city and had always dreamed of moving to the countryside, but the reality turned out to be much harsher than I imagined. In my new rural home, surrounded by endless rice fields and farmland, my husband Taro left for work in the city shortly after our wedding. My father-in-law, a kind and gentle widower, lived with me and always treated me with care. Gradually, I fell in love with the quiet countryside life, finding peace in its slow, unhurried rhythm. But one afternoon, while my father-in-law was away, I was caught masturbating by his friend. In that instant, my life changed forever.
