Rewriting Youth: Losing Track of Time with a 'Married' Night-School Classmate — 今井栞菜

About this work

A husband who doesn't come home until late, a cold married life... Aiming for independence, 今井栞菜 starts attending night school to get a qualification. Even so, the classmates are mostly young and she can't fit in after decades away from school. One day on the train home she ends up with classmate ハジメ and walks part of the way home with him. Feeling a kinship with ハジメ — older than the other students and not fitting in — the more time they spend together at school, in the library, on the train, the more feelings she thought were forgotten are gradually rekindled.
