Aru asa, soup wa

Kitagawa and Shizu are lovers and flatmates. A victim of panic attacks, Kitagawa withdraws from the world and closes himself away inside the claustrophobic walls of his own apartment, only leaving to attend a new seminar he has enrolled in. Initially heartened by his interest in this new venture, Shizu senses that something is not quite right when he appears with a strange amulet and begins to fill the flat with unfamiliar furniture.
