The One Who Wants Time to Stop
The author met a former coworker from Rakuten, who he has not met in some four years since he quickly departed from the company after less than a year of work . Interestingly enough, he had met her on the very day she was handing in her marriage registration. The author, not someone eager in communication, obviously had no idea of the fact that she was getting married, or that she was in a serious relationship at all. Surprising at it seems, four years is not a short time for a person to grow up. It gives a person much time to proceed with personal plans outside the career path.
