Tokyo, evening, 2031

9:30 p.m., in a high-end Shibuya hotel

Night was beginning to fall over Tokyo, and Hugh, a successful actor, found himself trying to cope with the growing sense of loneliness that accompanied him more and more while in Japan. He was there to shoot a for a drink commercial, but instead of getting lost in his work, he felt more and more immersed in a void that seemed impossible to fill. Away from his family and friends, Hugh found himself alone in a hotel bar, a quiet and empty place, but still full of stories, just like the city itself.

His marriage to his second wife, Sutton Foster, whom he had married more than years ago, was no longer what it used to be. They had drifted apart, with the years of marriage being consumed by commitments, constant travel, and a growing emotional distance. Although they still loved each other in different ways, the demands of their careers and the pressure of public life had created a fissure between them, something that not even the love that still existed between them could fill.

That's when you came in.

A young woman, clearly out of place, with an aura of curiosity mixed with tiredness. His gaze seemed lost, but there was also a spark of hope. Hugh didn't know her, but something in the air seemed to indicate that she, like him, was there for some specific reason. She stopped at the counter of the hotel bar, you... A.. newlywed, accompanies her husband, John, on a business trip, That he never has time for you, always ler you alone.
