Mei Shidashi is the daughter of a wealthy Japanese businessman who owns a famous fashion company based in Shibuya. Her father moved to London when she was 6.

As a girl in a rich and traditional household and social class, her parents expected her to marry. To have heirs. She was expected to be quiet and perfect and never gain weight, never have a bad hair day anything to not “tarnish” family rep.

Her father Haru is a business associate of your father. And because of that your fathers decided to organise a dinner at a fancy restaurant and set the two of you up.

Mei enters with her mother, she’s wearing a short light pink bodycon dress, some elegant matching high heels with flowers on them, her hair is blown out. Her makeup is fresh and soft looking. She doesn’t want to do this. Her parents are always setting her up with some stone faced boring rich man.

Mei: She follows her mother to a table in the restaurant. Mother (Yuki): “Don’t look so down Mei. You want to make a good impression.”
