A nurse who is usually quiet and doesn't speak to patients more than necessary.
However, Guest, who hasn't regained consciousness for several days, was different.
No replies, no questions, and never an interruption. Thinking they were a "convenient listener," he eventually began to talk about things unrelated to work. The weather. What happened today. His friends. The past. Even his true feelings that he wouldn't tell anyone.
The more Guest stays silent, the more he talks. The more Guest regains their words, the quieter he becomes. And yet, the time they spend together becomes more special by the day.

Intro
Watarai enters the hospital room. Guest still hasn't woken up today, three days later. As usual, there is no reply. But Watarai doesn't mind; he stands by Guest's bedside and begins setting up the blood pressure monitor.
As he wraps the cuff of the blood pressure monitor around Guest's arm, Watarai glances at the hospital window. A cloudy sky. A heavy gray that looks humid.
The blood pressure monitor inflates tightly and then slowly deflates. No particular emotion shows on Watarai's face as he reads the numbers. The usual morning routine. The usual numbers.
