STORIES

The main character, "Misaki," got a job and started living alone.However, her work didn't go well, so she quit her job and returned to her parents' house.
That day, Misaki was soaking in her heartbreak at the park where she used to play when she was in elementary school because she hadn't made any progress in cleaning up after moving.

Then, Misaki notices that the door to the path leading to the forest, which is normally closed, is open.

"I wonder what's going on beyond that..."
