Why this phrase

Late September, a drugstore shelf, the first カイロ of the season. Kōfuku is the tourist about to stick the adhesive pack on his wrist. Hana is the friend who grabs his hand. 貼る sticks to a shirt, never to skin, and you don't knead it. 貼らない is the pocket one: a light shake, still not on bare skin. Ask for the stick-on, or you walk out with the wrong pack.
