a zubuton cushion
for my borrowed husband—

As my husband was my sister’s one, I was forced to marriage with him after her death.
It was said to do so because of our family’s hotel survives.

Masajo's husband love her much.
It's cynical life.

Thank you John san for your comment.

Dear John san,
This post should be remade,because my understanding was error.
In the haiga the husband was her brother-in-law, but the fact is that the husband was her lover who was an air force officer.

Please see 090928 zabuto remade page.

Sorry to disturb you.

It is certainly interesting for me to read that post. Thanks the author for it. I like such themes and everything that is connected to them. I definitely want to read a bit more on that blog soon.
