My childhood friend HITOMI suddenly confessed one day with firm resolve: "I'm a masochist. My ex-boyfriend trained me and then abandoned me. Since then, I've dated several men, but none of them worked out." Out of mere sympathy, I told her, "It's fine, I'll do it if you want me to." However, as we continued our sessions, I gradually found myself drawn to HITOMI's pleading voice and submissive demeanor. Noticing this change within myself, my feelings toward her began to deepen.
