Fork in the Road
In *Iena Botan, Drunk on a Night Like a Lily* Episode 15, the two female protagonists ride their bicycles to a fork in a rural road. One paved branch leads left, while a dirt path veers right into the woods. Beside the road stands an old yellow traffic sign pole with a slightly faded directional sign. It is late summer; sunlight filters through the leaves, casting dappled shadows, and cicadas chirp in the distance. They pause here, seemingly uncertain which way to go, as a gentle breeze ruffles their skirts and hair.
