Saraba, Yasashii Yuuzuru

A series of standalone stories. In the first, Jun and Haruka hear a One-Eye cry out with pain and fear every Thursday. These creatures stick close to them, expressing anxieties, but Jun refuses to get involved, and Haruka is often convinced otherwise. In the second, Maki, raised by her grandmother after her mother vanished, receives a box from her childhood caretaker, Nao, containing only a red marble. In the third, Sumi, who has a facial birthmark, wished her twin brother would feel her pain, and now he has lost his face. In the fourth, Kouno, who died saving his cat, becomes a ghost and attempts to work as one, while a company handles a security job at a charity event to protect his father from an attack.
