My entry for :iconmode-de-vie: and :icondeath-by-romance:'s Contest: [link]

Based on a true story.
...Um... I think the image is too big... (._.)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's the true story. In middle school Tokyo, my Japanese teacher came to class almost an hour late. It was after lunch.

She explained to us why she was late and the story goes something like this:

"I (Teacher Hatsuko) was just about to step out of the train when my foot fell into the gap between the train and the platform and I fell in. *

I waited and waited for the train driver and the police to come while the people gawked at me. They didn't offer to help me out. I was stuck there for thirty minutes."

Listening to her then made me wonder if the people thought she trying to committ suicide. Suicide is common in Japan. People who do usually are quite violent. The onlookers didn't want to get involved.

With that memory I made this piece.

*Teacher Hatsuko is extremely thin. Take my word for it.

Thank you to all who favor my piece! Lots of love! ;)
