Do You Still Take Me for Better or for Worse?

Jun Sumisu, a thirty-five-year-old woman, has spent the past eight years married to her thirty-nine-year-old husband, Takeyori. Though their relationship remains amicable and free of major conflict, the couple has no children, and Jun’s life has grown increasingly quiet since she stepped away from full-time employment to become a housewife. Beneath this calm domestic routine, however, a deep sense of frustration begins to stir when she realizes that five years have passed since they last shared any physical intimacy. Longing for the passion they once had during the early days of their romance, Jun decides it is time to take control of her circumstances. Driven by a renewed sense of purpose, she reenters the workforce and begins actively searching for employment. Her goal is not merely to find a job, but to rediscover herself and spark a meaningful change in her stagnant marriage. When spring arrives and Jun officially starts her new position, the shift in her daily routine sets unexpected events into motion. Both she and Takeyori soon find themselves navigating a wave of fresh encounters and unfamiliar experiences, challenging the comfortable boundaries of their long-standing relationship and forcing them to confront what they truly want from each other.
