The streets are filled with small spells and laws that cannot be expressed in words. In the strange yet familiar alleys of Tokyo, I search for the people and scenery of yesteryear, those memories that belong only to Banana Yoshimoto. Growing up is like this. The city accumulates a history that belongs only to me, gradually deepening its colors. When that painted picture is finished, I too will depart, along with that person. Only a deeply colored map of my soul remains. We have reached the age where we say to each other, "I wonder how long I can go, and if I'll be able to come back next year."
