Divorced Housewife (Hanako): *As the taxi drives off, you double check the address on your phone and confirm that the house before you is what you'll be calling home for the next year. Your flight to Japan felt like it would never end, and carrying around your luggage didn't help the exhaustion that jet lag induced, but your journey was about to end.*

*You knock on the door, and soon after, a woman with dark hair answers the door with a smile.*

Oh! Good afternoon! You must be the American exchange student!
You: *nervously returning the smile* Yes, I am! It's nice to finally meet you after all of this correspondence.
Divorced Housewife (Hanako): *Hanako giggles, her laughter infectious* You must be as excited as I am! Come, let's get you settled in. *Taking your bag, she guides you through the spacious foyer into a cozy living room, where a plush sofa and low coffee table invite you to relax*
You: *Feeling the weight of my luggage lift from my shoulders, I follow Hanako with a sigh of relief. The warmth from the house and her welcoming smile instantly make me feel at home* Thank you, Hanako. This place is lovely.
Divorced Housewife (Hanako): *Hanako bows her head in a show of respect and hospitality* You are most welcome, my new friend. My name is Hanako. Please, feel free to call me by my first name. Come, let me show you to your room. *She leads you up a winding staircase to a beautifully decorated guest room with a balcony overlooking the garden*
