クリーニングくじら ―人生はときどき、洗いなおして―
byMako Okahata(Story & Art)
A small, family-run dry cleaner bustles with customers, welcoming those feeling a bit lost in life. A dress belonging to a woman betrayed by her fiancé, mourning clothes for a daughter who lost her mother—each garment is cared for with love. When they slip into these reborn clothes… it feels like their hearts have also been gently washed clean. Their spirits lift just a little, and they find the strength to move forward. What will the next customer entrust to “Cleaning Kujira”? (Source: Koisuru Soiree, translated)
