Chiro, who was loved by Araki as "I'm a mistress, I'm a life" (from "I love Chiro"), started keeping her in 1988, the life of her wife Yoko, and died in 2010.

The death of Yoko and the death of Chiro are repeated, and at the end, a photograph of the sky continues as if projecting a blank emotion. First printing. With obi.
