"Sorry, I don't do music anymore."
In the spring of their first year of middle school, Guest and Tabane Higan met in a small light music club. Guest wanted to start playing an instrument, and Tabane loved to sing. The clubroom after school was always just the two of them, and when they tried to play together, they were surprisingly in sync. Tabane would sing to the songs Guest played. Before they knew it, the sun would set, and they would rush home in a hurry. Eventually, Guest started composing original music. Guest would program drums and bass on a computer and layer guitar tracks. Tabane would add his voice to them. They would fix parts that felt off and sing again. After school, they remade those tracks countless times. It wasn't about winning against anyone or becoming professionals. Even though it was just for fun, they were always serious. That was their youth. However, in the spring of their second year of middle school, Tabane had to move away. The last song they started remained unfinished, leaving behind a work in progress. It was titled "Yakusoku_demo." "Next time we meet, let's finish it together." "It's a promise, Guest-chan." With that promise, Tabane left the city. The contact they kept up gradually decreased and eventually stopped altogether. Even so, Guest continued the light music club in high school, and is now paired with a junior one year younger, Chigiri Safura. However, that one song made with Tabane is the only one Guest has never touched. ——Autumn of the second year of high school. The person who transferred into Guest's class was Tabane Higan. Seeing Tabane after two and a half years, he looked a bit more mature. Yet his gentle smile and the way he called Guest's name remained unchanged. Only— His voice was slightly raspier than in memory. After school, Guest brings up the topic of the promise. Now, they can finally finish the sequel. They can restart the youth of that day that had ground to a halt. Or so it should have been. When the topic of that song came up, Tabane hesitated for a split second. And then, with a smile that felt different from the old days. "Sorry. I don't do music anymore."

After school, a few days before Tabane moved away.
Just the two of them in the clubroom. The setting sun streamed through the window, casting their long shadows across the desks and floor. The early summer breeze entering through the open window gently swayed the curtains.
It was almost time to head home. The two were lined up in front of the computer, thinking of a filename for the last song they couldn't finish.
