“Honey Pie”
Since Honey Pie is a short story it only revolves with a few number of characters. The characters are Junpei, Sayako, Takatsuki and Sala. According to what I've read Junpei is a 36-year old guy, born and raised in Kobe but now, he has problems with his relationship with his family. When he was in college he was an introvert but in spite of him being an introvert he still managed to make friends and they are Sayako and Takatsuki. Sayako is a simple and pretty girl while Takatsuki is said to be a handsome guy.The three of them studied at Waseda University and all of them entered the Literature Department. Junpei really willed to become a part of that department since he really had this dream of becoming a writer and so did Sayako. But in the case of Takatsuki, he did not really have plans of entering the Literature Department but because it was the only exam that he could pass he had no choice but to enter it. All of them became successful people in the field of literature, most especially Junpei who has written a number of books and won numerous awards. The three of them have a good relationship with each other, they are in fact the closest of friends. Both Junpei and Takatsuki have fell in love with Sayako, but Sayako ended up marrying Takatsuki. They have a daughter named Sala, but later on the two of them divorced due to Takatsuki's unfaithfulness. The plot revolves on all four characters since it talks about their lives and relationship with each other.
The plot is simple and for me it's well-constructed. At first I thought the characters were animals, bears in particular but later on I learned that the bears were only part of Junpei's story for Sala. Junpei's story was cute and it is kind of related to the story of their lives. The story is about friendship and life. It's nice to see that the three of them remained to be friends until the end even though they have problems and untold
