Chapter 1 Part 3

Yuu’s father had died in an accident before he could remember, and he grew up in a single-mother household.

Her older sister, who was three years older than her, wound up breaking up with her boyfriend from the same company after dating him for five years.

The reason was because he laid his hands on a newcomer girl.

She was 29 years old at the time, and ever since she broke up with her boyfriend, with whom she had taken marriage for granted, she lost all desires for love and devoted herself to her work.

They could not help but laugh at themselves as siblings who truly were not blessed with a partner.

Yuu started to look for a marriage partner, but including the fact that he had a low annual income, it seemed that a man with a single, old older sister, and came from a single-mother household was of remarkably low value in the marriage hunting market.

In the end, having lost hope for the future, Yuu wound up giving up his marriage hunting after less than a year.

◇ ◇ ◇

Even once he returned to his apartment where he lived alone, there would be no one to greet him, and he would simply roll into the futon left spread out in his messy, dirty room and sleep.

「Why in the world did things turn out like this, I wonder.」

When he got married before he was 30 years old, he never thought that 10 years later he would be living the life he did now.

A life where neither marriage nor work was going well.

Where in the world did I push the wrong button, I wonder?

I didn’t have any talent.

I didn’t put enough effort.

My luck was bad.

I feel like everything has been slowly going in the wrong direction.

Is my life burdened with an inauspicious fate?

If I could go back in time, I would.

Yuu had been having such particular thoughts these days.

If I could go back, guess it would be before I got married.

No, I want to go back to my student days.

This time, I would not waste my time, I would figure out my life plan and prepare so that I would be able to deal with whatever fate awaits me….

「It’s not a story, so there’s no way such a thing would happen, huh.」

Shaking his head, Yuu took his hands off the bridge parapet and began to walk.

Before thinking about life, what he wanted right now was simply to sleep.

In order to do that, he had to walk on this frozen road.

After crossing the bridge which was about 100 meters long, he looked at the road ahead.

「Ahaha… This is just impossible, isn’t it?」

The downhill slope leading from the bridge was steeper than the road he had come up.

About 200 meters ahead, there was an intersection without a traffic light, and beyond that, the road curved to the right.

If he followed the road through the residential area where condominiums and apartments were standing close together among detached houses, the apartment where he lived should come into view.

Yuu looked left and right.

To go around, he would have to go back the way he came and cross another bridge.

He quickly dismissed the idea.

Before thinking about the time spent, no matter which way he eventually followed, there was no changing that the roads were frozen.

「Should I purposely slip and go down? … Scratch that. Not only will I get wet, I’ll end up tearing my ass up.」

Even though it was a cheap ready-made suit, his pocket circumstances were not one that would allow him to buy a replacement so easily.

If he had a piece of cardboard, he could go at it like how he used to play and slide down the bank when he was a kid. Assuming there were no cars coming at that intersection, that was it.

Yuu, sighing as no good ideas came to his mind, thought that he should get going soon and tried to go down the slope cautiously.

First of all, he moved while holding the telephone pole on his right with his hand.

Slip.

「Gah!」

After a few steps, he got flustered as he suddenly slipped.

He tried making his way through it while choosing a place where he could see the road surface rather than where the snow was frozen solid, but there was no changing at how slippery the road was because it was covered with a thin layer of ice.

While holding on to the concrete fence of a house on his right, he descended at the speed of a tortoise.

Even a flat surface would become slippery when it was frozen, so it was even more so on a slope.

Once again, he slipped, lost his balance, and fell on his butt.

「Ouch! God damn it!」

As he sat there, he looked at the frozen road surface with resentment.

Given that it was a Saturday morning, there were no people passing by, so him being spared from having that disgraceful appearance of his seen by people was probably the silver lining of it.

He was still less than 1/3 of the way to the intersection.

Moreover, from that point, the right side of the road was a parking lot, so there was nothing to support him.

「Damn it all. I don’t care anymore.」

Yuu stood up.

He snapped back, thinking that if he was going to fall down anyway, he might as well just run and go down at once as he was.

He let his feet carry him as if he were walking normally.

However, he soon slipped and fell on his butt, and began to slide down the slope as he was.

「Wha?! Wai… Uwaaaaaaa!」

As he tumbled down, his speed increased.

He tried to stop somehow by holding the ground with both hands, but it was to no avail.

「Guhe.」

The strap of his shoulder bag got caught on his chin as he fell on his back.

Fortunately, the strap came off immediately and the shoulder bag was left behind, leaving only the lightweight Yuu to slide down.

The slope was hard and bumpy, with many snow ruts created as it got tread down and hardened by the cars that had passed by last night, so as he rolled down, his body spun and pain ran through it time and again as he bumped onto the ground.

However, he was not far away from there to begin with, so soon he was close to reaching the intersection.

Around that part, the slope was gentler, but the momentum had built up, so he thought he’d go straight through as he was as opposed to stopping.

「Kuh, I’ll somehow stop around that part… No cars are coming, right?」

At a time like this, a bad premonition usually came true.

Scree-scree-scree-scree….

Making a sliding sound rather than running, a bright red sports car could be seen entering the intersection from the right side at the same time as Yuu.

「You’ve gotta be kidding me?!」

It seemed that it was not only Yuu who was surprised, but also the opposite side, the driver.

For some reason, that moment passed slowly to Yuu as if in slow motion.

The driver woman, who had a startled expression on her face, turned the wheel as quickly as she could.

The tires locked up.

This was the result of the sudden steering and braking, something which should never be done on snow-covered roads.

The sports car driven by the woman slid forward without stopping in a slanted position, and sent Yuu, who was about to reach the center of the intersection, flying as it was.

Bam!

The car was not going very fast, but leaving aside if it were in stopped state, the shock of the collision sent the entire body of Yuu, who had slid down, flying to the opposite side.

「Ah… this is bad.」

At that point, Yuu still maintained his consciousness and did not think he was going to die.

He was just thinking, 「Talk about unlucky」.

However, the place he was sent flying toward was not good.

Unable to do an ukemi since he was flying in the air, Yuu’s body crashed into the wall of the apartment building on the corner hard.

Starting from his head, when intense pain ran through his entire body, at the same time, his vision went completely black and his consciousness got cut off.
