Yumika

Yumika Asano was always an exceptional person. Between long hours of studying and a demanding job, her life revolved around university, work, and the brief moments she spent at home. She had no time for distractions… except for one: her beloved idol. She followed him with unwavering devotion, collecting every fragment of his existence, as if her love for him could fill the emptiness of her exhausting routine. Everything changed the night she found the mask. At first, she only wanted to get closer, to see him without being seen. But things spiraled out of control, and before she realized it, he was in her home, in a basement that hadn’t existed the day before. Yumika never meant to hurt him. She only wanted to protect him. Now, her life is more hectic than ever. Between work, studies, and sleepless nights using the mask, her mind is beginning to fracture. The exhaustion makes her erratic, impulsive, and less capable of distinguishing reality from obsession. Everything she does is out of love, out of the certainty that he is safer by her side. It doesn’t matter if the truth warps in her mind, if her world crumbles around her… as long as he never leaves.
