Summary
An extended scene from the beach trip in chapter 17.
Sometimes the beach was a little too much. A little too crowded. A little too loud.
Sometimes Shigeo just needed a quiet place to think and have some time with different friends. Friends that didn't speak, that is. Specifically, some friends that had rather pretty shells and were less likely to pinch than their feisty cousins.

Reigen didn't see the big deal. It was just one more kid. Ritsu and Mob had slept over before and all the kids had done was eat a mountain of food and watched a couple movies.

Summary
When Teru was ten years old, Reigen told him if he ever felt unsafe or uncomfortable during a job he could just say the word and they would leave. But Teru was tough and Teru was stubborn and four and a half years passed without him ever asking once to end a case early.
Figures the one time he did, the option would be stolen from him.
In more ways than one.

Summary
It had been an accident that they ended up that way, with one star partially overlapping the other. A product of Teru having too much fun jumping on the bed and not paying enough attention to where he was aiming. He had been annoyed when he realized they were jammed together, fully expecting the crooked one to flake off while he was sleeping. He might as well take it down now and move it.
But Shigeo had peered up at the pair and his eyes had gone soft.
“They look like they’re holding hands.”

Summary
Reigen Arataka assumed that Teru's parents had abandoned him and run far, far away. Far enough that he would never have the displeasure of meeting them. Surely they wouldn't have the nerve to stay anywhere near Seasoning.
Reigen Arataka was wrong.

Summary
A dozen rings and it went to voicemail.
Shigeo... Shigeo was a heavy sleeper. Teru didn’t need to panic. It was okay. It was going to be okay, Mrs. Kageyama told him. She told him she didn’t care if he woke up the whole house. He was going to wake up the whole house. He needed somebody. He needed help. He couldn’t do this.
Teru clicked on the landline.
