Everybody has a dream. To Nina, her dreams is having a perfect life: stay at home, raise kids, take care of her family and husband and as a result, she gets husband who’s staring her with loving eyes. Perfect life she sees in her mom.
She almost get her dream. But, before her marriage, Ian Prayogo, her fiancé, giving her bad news: he has affair with his ex-girlfriend and has to marry her.
Nina has to bury her dream. Without dream, love and soul, Nina goes to Japan to forget Ian. In Tokyo, Nina tries to get her life back. She finds her medicine, a mysterious-man-in-black she meets everyday in subway and a cyber friend whom she never met called Takung.
One by one, Nina can face her life. Those are because of her cyber friend and her love to the mysterious guy in subway. But, when Nina can almost forget her past, Ian comes to her and asks her to be back with him. And he is not alone. Karina, Ian’s wife comes, too and asks Nina to stay away from her husband or she will kill her…
It is a good story. I know Japanese culture from anime and manga. And reading this, I even know a lot more. Mariskova wrote with some simple sentences.
The story is told by flashback style. Sometimes Nina is dreaming about her past, too. What I hate about this is Nina’s life is too bitter. Little by little, Mariskova open up Nina’s heart by meeting her with her-man-in-black-in-train. It’s romantic.
I think Mark is in love with Nina. He just can’t tell her how he feels. Poor Mark.
