Dreams and Jobs

Yuina was fond of a great many make-ups: lipsticks that gave her lips a little more colour, nail polish that gave her nails a little extra shine – and there was nothing wrong with that. She was a woman after all. It was just that dressing herself up like that didn't suit the job she was destined to overcome.

And she didn't want it anyway. Not like Ohana who absolutely loved the idea of inheriting the inn, whether it was written in her future or not. Yuina wanted to study overseas and become a model or a makeup artist or something like that. Not the proprietor of an inn she'd grow up in, and old in. She wanted to be out in the world, instead of behind walls.

She wanted to bloom, not be stagnant and, eventually, wilt. She felt that was what would happen if she resigned herself to a job she didn't want.
