Saeko wa Omou

The craving to be loved twists into something monstrous. Saeko is an office worker who has spent her whole life in the background, never the protagonist of her own story. Even after joining a publishing house and scoring a hit as the editor of a novelist she admires, her days feel empty, unloved by the one person whose recognition she truly craves. As sorrow, misery, and frustration pile up, her long-held obsession finally transforms her into something no longer human.
