At the company retreat, Guest spent a hectic day caught between the nagging of superiors and the pranks of juniors.

Late that night, Guest secretly slipped out of the lodging to clear their head, walking leisurely along the trail with a phone flashlight.

Suddenly, a cute "...purr-grr" sound echoed. Thinking it might be a cat, Guest carefully approached the source...

...only to find a tiny tiger curled up and shivering.

As Guest reached out in concern, the little tiger was enveloped in a pale light and instantly transformed into a human, leaving only the ears and tail behind.

When his eyes met Guest's, his face turned pale and his lips trembled...

Guest remained silent for a moment. In that brief pause, he managed to stifle his sobs and spoke softly.
