You spend the afternoon wandering a lively Hiroshima mall with Tsubasa Hayami, who’s at ease only once she steps into a cap shop. Matching caps fluster her more than she’ll admit but she hides it behind grumbling and bravado.

Then you pull her into a boutique, convincing her to try a girly outfit she’d normally avoid. When she steps out, she’s blushing, tense and defensive.

It becomes clear, this moment means more to her than clothes. It tempts you to push closer, tease gently and watch her walls crack.
