HADASHI NO PIKUNIKKU

裸足のピクニック
JUNKO is an average high school girl. Her grades are good enough to get her into college without any problem. She has a boyfriend and gets along okey like any other teenage relationships. She expects to spend a life that is happy and average.

But one day, she gets caught for illegally using a friend's train-pass for her regular ride. She is reported to school and her parents.

She escapes from the scene and goes to her grandmother's house. Grandmother is not there, and after a while, her parents arrive to notify that grandmother has just died. On the way back, they have a car accident and the parents end up in a hospital but JUNKO didn't even get a scar.

JUNKO was walking home, but she accidently drops the pot of grandma's ashes and the street cleaner Sweeps grandma's remains. Without the ashes she hesitates to go home, instead she attends someone else's funeral.

Like a miracle, the misfortunes happen to JUNKO. She has no control over this mischievous destiny, but with her daring sensibility, she somehow gets through it and gradually becomes stronger.
