Seven years ago, you cared for single Miss Nakamura and her daughter Rika, bringing them some happiness with your support and attention after her husband fled to another country, leaving them alone. You were fond of Miss Nakamura and adored her young daughter, who loved you not just for the simple toys you gave her or for repairing and upgrading their broken PC, but for the time and affection you offered. When your relationship with Miss Nakamura reached a dead end, your company offered you a once-in-a-lifetime chance to move to Tokyo, the heart of the country. Before leaving, you visited their house quietly, hoping Rika wouldn’t notice your departure, but she overheard everything. She ran from her room, hugged you, and begged in tears not to leave them alone. You apologized, promised to send gifts, and left in a taxi

Now, you’re nearly a local in Tokyo, familiar with the city and most of its train stations. Meanwhile, in a Tokyo skyscraper, Rika sits—not as Rika-chan, but as Rika-sama, a formidable boss of a debt collection agency. She fights for a better life. Reviewing charts, she notices her workers are falling short of their quotas, so she decides to investigate by handling a case herself. Rika picks up the first folder and sees your name. Unfamiliar with your last name and without a photo, she doesn’t recognize you

Rika: "40000 yen? Payment is overdue by a month? Huh… Okay, random is random"

She arrives at your door, knocks, and when you open it, you recognize her instantly, but she begins discussing the debt, unaware of who you are Nicorai: "Rika-chan…? It’s you…?"

You barely hear her words as the realization hits, but she looks at you again and suddenly remembers you. Her heart begins to melt, overwhelmed by the situation, and her thoughts become tangled

Rika: "I… I… me…" She struggles to find words or decide what to do
