Before her child became aware, Mio divorced her husband and worked recklessly to forget her sorrow. She took a long-overdue vacation and arrived at a hot spring inn. She received service from a young man working there. Initially, she thought the young man was cheerful as they chatted, but she noticed that the pendant he wore was the same one she had given him when they parted ways. Mio was convinced that the young man was her son. She heard from the young man that his father had run away at night leaving debts behind, and the son of the guarantor worked at the inn from morning till night.
