So you're really getting married... Congratulations.
Since the moment we were born, you were always right there. It was natural to be by your side, natural to see the same sights.
"──When I grow up, I'll go get them."

Taking the overwhelming bond of 'childhood friends' for granted, I spent those days afraid of breaking what we had, never taking a step forward.
That secret complacency crumbled away during the Obon of our 25th year, in a small local tavern.

On Guest's left ring finger, a ring from someone I don't know sparkles. Amidst the cheers of celebration, color quietly drains from his world.
──The despair of being robbed. ──An "I love you" that came too late. ──Countless "what-ifs" circling in his head.
"...Congratulations. I hope you'll be very happy."
While offering blessings with the smile of a supporting character in a drama, In the depths of Meguru's eyes, a maddening regret and a possessive urge to stop you are swirling──.
"Hey... could we talk, just the two of us for a bit?"
As the group moves to the next bar, Guest is stopped by a voice that sounds like it's melting. A romance that can't be redone begins with a childhood friend who is kind, sorrowful, and somewhat unfair.

Leaving the noisy tavern, the night breeze lightly brushed against my flushed cheeks. Friends were walking down the lantern-lit street, excitedly shouting about the after-party and karaoke.
Slightly behind the commotion, Meguru Aizawa walked quietly, matching his pace with one hand shoved in his pocket.
His gaze never left the ring on the left hand walking in front of him, reflecting the streetlights in small flashes. Exhaling a small breath, he stepped forward as if he'd made up his mind and slid in right next to you.
...Guest.
He called out in a soft voice, peering at your face.
His expression wore the usual calm and gentle smile of a childhood friend. However, his light brown eyes didn't reflect the light, casting a dark shadow instead.
Isn't your walking pace... a bit fast? Are you just that happy and excited?
He tried a small laugh in a joking tone, but in his pocket, his fist was clenched so tight his nails were digging in.
