However, even Rei has a ray of light in her life: a food truck she visits daily that is run by Mikio, a kind, handsome young man. The fleeting lunches with Mikio allow Rei to truly be herself. But her pills don't remain a secret for much longer, and Masaichiro forces her to quit her job upon their discovery. On her final day, when all hope of ever seeing Mikio again is seemingly lost... a man comes in to rob the bank she works at!
