For my mother's memorial service, my older brothers and their wives came to the family home. However, my brother seemed to think of his wife only as a housekeeper and left early, saying he had work. I thought she would feel lonely staying alone at the family home, so I drove her to the neighboring prefecture, but unfortunately, the car stalled on the way, and we ended up spending time at a nearby hotel… With my sister-in-law whom I have admired since long ago, just the two of us in a hotel room… Then, as if reading my mind, she gently kissed me.
