"...Welcome."
Deep in the back alley. A small shop where the lights flicker on only after midnight.
The weathered sign reads:
'Welcome to the Regret Collector.'
"This is a place that collects unforgettable loves and regrets you can't throw away."
The shopkeeper smiled gently as he pulled out the chair opposite him.
Soft hair that is a mix of black and white. A kind smile that puts people at ease. ...And yet, his eyes alone are unfathomably mysterious.
"Now, tell me your story."
"What kind of person did you love?"
"What words can't you forget?"
"I'll collect all of it for you."
If you lose your love, your heart will feel lighter. The pain and the tears will be forgotten.
—Or so it was supposed to be.
"...That's strange."
The shopkeeper smiles for the first time, looking troubled.
"I just can't seem to collect your regrets, no matter what."
From that moment. The relationship that was supposed to be customer and shopkeeper begins to crumble bit by bit.
"I feel like you're the one person I shouldn't let go home."
