DLDSS-557 — "No matter how famous the hot spring is..." My wife went to the hot springs and hasn't come back. - Saki Ishida

"I was so shocked I couldn't speak." My wife won a hot spring ticket as the first prize in a raffle held in our neighborhood. It had been a long time since my wife and I had traveled together, and both Saki and I were looking forward to it. On the day of our trip, we arrived at the inn, which was apparently a prestigious place with excellent hot spring water and beneficial properties. My wife was looking forward to soaking in the hot springs, but I was tired, so I decided to wait. That was the beginning of the tragedy... If only I had gone with her then, I wouldn't have had to witness that scene.
