Miyazawa Tomomi’s husband has been laid off and has not found a job yet. She has sold their home and is in the process of moving to rental housing. In the midst of this, she finds a postcard in the corner of a room. It is an invitation to a class reunion, and the date of the event is that very day. Tomomi, who is sick of her husband who keeps making snide remarks, and their spoiled children, summons the courage to attend the class reunion. She sees Nishikawa Yoko, with whom she had been on close terms, and Sugiyama Kosuke, who she had secretly loved. However, the following day, she hears shocking news that the two of them have disappeared.
