One rainy day, the young woman Natsuki encounters a high school student in the street. Acting on an impulse, she gives the girl her umbrella and walks away. It turns out later that the girl, Michiko, is the younger sister of Natsuki’s sister’s newly-married husband.

Six short stories about the passage from life to death.

"In the Afternoon..." is the sequel to Konno Kita's earlier work "Nowhere to Go". Moriya's antics continue, and Miwa comes down with a cold. (Source: Lililicious)

Middle schooler Ai has felt someone's presence ever since he was a child. When he wanders into a parallel universe, he meets a girl named Suzuro who looks a lot like his mother. When Ai finds out that Suzuro is the true daughter of his parents, and that he is in fact from the parallel universe, and was switched with Suzuro in the womb—what will Ai do!? The story of a boy and girl bound by a quirk of fate. (Source: Shinshokan)

[From Lililicious]: *Nowhere to Go* is another girls' boarding school story, but the deviousness of one of the main characters is what makes it memorable. It has a sequel called *In the Afternoon...*.
