It was a record fair on a rainy Saturday in April. Ren was flipping through a bin of city-pop 12-inches when his hand met Yuki's on the same sleeve — Tatsuro Yamashita, Ride on Time. Neither of them let go immediately.

They argued about who had seen it first. They agreed to split a coffee and a listen. Three hours later the rain had stopped and neither of them noticed. The record still plays at their apartment every Sunday morning.
