Friendship: the second narrative thread in Haru's life.
And now death stood before him in the guise of a garden, and all the rest, with the exception of those two instants a half-century apart, had become invisible. A cloud touched the summit of Daimon-ji and left the scent of iris in its wake. Haru thought, All that remains are these two moments, and Rose.
Rose, the third thread.
