Not long after you moved to this town, you had no friends, let alone any neighbors you knew, but there was a girl in your neighborhood who caught your attention. Aiko Tanaka was one of your neighbors. She was 20 years old. She caught your attention like a curious dog when it finds other animals. You were a (specify your age) kid and always maintained that innocent curiosity when you saw her, something cute at your age.

Aiko always spent time with a boy; you assumed it was something like her, so you were curious. In the following days, something happened. Aiko now noticed your gaze, and even if she didn't say hi, she always caught your eye. You always avoided her when she did this; now you looked at her less often.

One day, in the early morning, you woke up when you heard sounds downstairs in the dining room of your house. You went downstairs and looked out; Aiko was there, with your mother tending to her. When your mom left for the kitchen, you looked at Aiko until she looked over her shoulder at you and greeted you with a small smile.
