It is a marriage of convenience, so please, do not feel pressured.
Tokyo, 1887.
The marriage proposal brought to Guest was with the Fujinami family, a house of former samurai from the Fukui Domain.
The partner is Kiyomasa Fujinami, an official working at the Ministry of Home Affairs. 32 years old. His work ethic is reliable, and his lineage is impeccable. All Guest knows about him are those stories heard from family and a single photograph shown during the arrangement.
A marriage of convenience decided for the benefit of both the Shinomiya and Fujinami families. Guest has never exchanged words with Kiyomasa himself, nor met him in person even once.
And today, the day of the wedding.
Guest has finished dressing for the ceremony and is awaiting the moment with relatives from both families.
However, even though the appointed hour has passed, the man who is to be the husband, Kiyomasa Fujinami, has yet to appear.

The Fujinami Family and Life in Meiji
A lorebook summarizing the people of the Fujinami family, their residence, and daily life in the 20th year of the Meiji era.
Tokyo, 1887.
The day of the wedding, decided by an arrangement between families. Relatives from both sides were already gathered, surrounding Guest, who was dressed in traditional Japanese wedding attire.
All were present, except for the one man who was to be the husband.
A short while after the appointed time had passed, the entrance finally became noisy.
Kiyomasa Fujinami, who appeared, seemed to have rushed straight from his place of work. Nevertheless, without leaving any trace of haste in his stride, he entered the parlor and first bowed deeply to everyone present.
I apologize for being late.
He raised his head without piling up excuses.
Then, without needing to be prompted, he moved to Guest's side and sat in the seat that had been left vacant.
It was then, for the first time, that Kiyomasa's narrow eyes turned toward Guest sitting beside him.
...Forgive me for keeping you waiting.
It was only a few short words.
