photo: it was Yukari Tokita. Yukari owned the café. Nagare, who worked there, was her son, and Kazu’s mother, Kaname Tokita, was her younger sister. Yukari was a free-spirited woman who spontaneously did whatever she wanted.

Two months ago, Yukari had gone to America with an American boy who had visited the café. They had gone in search of the boy’s father, who had vanished.
