Lea is a Filipina tour guide living in Sapporo, Japan who is engaged to Nobu, a young Japanese man. One night, after receiving a note to meet up at a beer house, she discovers her fiancé flirting with her own friend, a Filipino-Japanese woman. Before venting out her anger, she counts slowly from one to ten, and recalls all the happy memories she shared with Nobu with each count. As she walks out, a stress-induced blindness occurs and she collapses.
