A Story of Just Chatting While on a Date with My Childhood Friend

Yusaku Yahagi is 32 years old. He had been working as a technician at a foreign-affiliated industrial equipment manufacturer, moving around overseas. His long-awaited transfer request to the Japanese branch was approved, and he safely returned to Japan. Risa Nonaka is also 32 years old. She used to work at a major apparel manufacturer, but is now a freelancer. Leveraging her skilled hands, she takes custom orders for doll clothing from her regular clients. In early November, at Risa's invitation to "go see the autumn leaves for the first time in a while," the two of them now sit face to face having drinks together. Among such enjoyable moments—joking about their single status, getting excited reminiscing about old times—Risa suddenly offers something. What is this "certain document"? And what is Yusaku's response? This is a short story that tells of the present and past of these two people. ※This story consists only of dialogue.
