NAKAO MOTOKO

“Ugh… I just want sex!” At 33, Aya, a corporate worker, finds herself struggling with her own unspoken desires. She craves physical intimacy—yearning to be touched, held, wanted. But in a society that still shames women for owning their sexuality, she’s kept her feelings bottled up… and she hasn’t had a boyfriend in 8 years. One night, she goes out drinking with her flirty, laid-back boss Dojima, who casually confesses that after his divorce, he’s given up on love and just enjoys one-night stands now. Intrigued—and tired of denying her needs—Aya comes up with a set of personal rules for herself. If she’s going to try a one-night stand, she’s going to do it on her terms… and without regrets.
