SORA-403 I want to be with a man who annoys me to death… there’s a side of me even my mother and my best friend Kumi don’t know… Mai Hanagari

The road to school takes an hour by bicycle. A depopulated town where the number of students in the entire school is fewer than ten. An innocent high school girl, like anyone else, secretly keeps a dark fantasy deep in her heart… Anyone who picks up on that signal becomes captivated by her… and gradually obsessed. She has no such desire herself, yet with her alone, she feels an irresistible urge to possess. Even knowing it is wrong, she cannot stop. She herself vaguely understands this, but this is something she cannot tell anyone—not even her best friend Kumi, not even her mother. Yes, because that is simply how it is…

The insects in the trampled garden seemed to tell her: I really wanted to be normal. But I can’t do that. No matter what, I end up dragging someone into it. I can’t talk to anyone about it. I could run away from them, I could resist them… but I don’t. Why don’t I… why don’t I… why?
