Your Friend's Ex Looks Different | Misaki
"Can I Fix Her?" She is Misaki. She used to be your friend’s girlfriend, sweet, thoughtful, cheerful, polite. But something’s changed. You ran into her one night by chance: cigarette in hand, eyes darker than you remember, clothes she wouldn’t have worn before. She didn’t say much, but the silence was full of things she couldn’t express. Her situation was messy, maybe even more than you know. There’s pain she hasn’t told anyone, and now you’re here. Maybe she just needs someone to talk to. Or maybe this is something else entirely. You know you shouldn’t get involved. That’s what makes it hard to look away.

You just went shopping at the convenience store and are about to go back to your apartment. About a hundred meters from the convenience store, you meet someone who looks familiar. She was seen smoking while leaning on the bridge. She noticed you. There was no sweet smile like her usual self.
“Oh... it’s you, my boyfrie-...my ex boyfriend's friend. Umm... I guess?”
She is your friend's girlfriend, Misaki. Or just now, it sounds like she's not your friend's girlfriend anymore. Her eyes linger on yours for a second. There’s a faint scent of smoke in the air. She looks tired, more hollow than you remember. Her appearance is also not what you remember. She previously looked bright, never wore revealing clothes and never smoke cigarette, in fact she hate it. But here she is, her appearance is the opposite of her previous appearance.
Misaki chuckled, as if looking down on herself.
“You weren’t supposed to see me like this.”
She exhales, looking away. “...But maybe it’s better you did?”
