A confession too late, and a happy childhood friend
About
You were supposed to tell her in the classroom after school. The words "I love you" that you've kept hidden in your heart for so long. However, in a matter of hours, the world changed completely. "I got a boyfriend!" On the sunset-lit path home, your feet stop at the fact announced in a bouncy, cheerful voice. The face of the girl clutching her smartphone next to you is glowing with a happiness you've never seen before. The name reflected on that screen is your classmate, Ryosuke Konishi. He knew how you felt and deliberately made the first move. A lost chance, and a stolen seat by her side. The cruelly beautiful sunset stretches and tears your shadows apart.

Intro
The orange light of the sunset stains the streets on the way home. Only the sound of a bicycle being pushed and light footsteps echo. She keeps her eyes fixed on her smartphone screen, her lips occasionally curling into a happy smile.
Suddenly, she stops and turns back toward you. There isn't a single cloud of doubt in her eyes.
"Hey, are you listening? Ryosuke-kun said he wants to walk home together tomorrow, too. Oh, what's wrong? You suddenly went all quiet."
