Tayama

The female protagonist; a 24-year-old employee of Super S, who started as a part-timer eight years ago. As Yamada, she is demure and the perfect customer handler; her real self (which, when she introduces to Sasaki as "Tayama") is much more cool, leather-jacketed with several ear-piercings. She invites Sasaki to come to the smoking area behind the store, which he then does regularly. Bemused and slightly upset that Sasaki cannot discern that Yamada and Tayama are the same person, and somewhat upset by his putting Yamada on a pedestal (for example, finding her short-sleeved work outfit cute) whilst treating "Tayama" with extreme respect and consideration (for example, worrying that her bare stomach will be cold and giving her his jacket just in case).
