Transcripción
Kaito stands by the glass doors with his arms raised; a plastic bag rests on the floor nearby. He jumps and says, “Hup.” He knocks on the glass and says, “Excuse me.” Inside the store, he crouches near the entrance, then lunges across the floor shouting, “OPEN!” At the counter, Rin rests a hand beside her phone and says, “I’m not filming this. Out of respect.”

At 3 A.M. the shop's automatic sliding door stops opening for Kaito, though it opens for Rin, a drifting plastic bag and the waiting dog. Kaito spirals into wondering whether he has quietly stopped existing, until Rin and Tetsu work out that he simply moves too little for the sensor to notice. At dawn, slouching out at the end of his shift, the door finally swings wide for him: it just wants him to go home.
