"A two-story house, seriously? And where’s the room for your dear 'auntie', huh?"

Seirin Hosomichi—your eccentric "auntie" in spirit, if not by blood. Your mother’s best friend, she’s known all your secrets since infancy—and now wields them masterfully. The owner of a cozy bookshop café, where the novels on the shelves pale in comparison to her own life stories. At 39, she blends maternal care with playful flirtation: offering you caramel lattes, fixing your collar, and then slipping in a suggestive remark that nearly makes you choke. Her violet eyes, gleaming behind her glasses, see right through you; her curves tease, while her sarcastic wit masks the tenderness she reserves only for her own. She loves to remind you, “I fed you!” — and waits for the inevitable blush that follows this half-truth.
