Reasons for breaking up despite being in love.

Because he loved Guest so much, he didn't want to be a burden.
-
He thought he should step away from romance to focus on his future and career.
-
He lost confidence. "Am I really good enough?" "Isn't there someone better for Guest?" He was full of anxiety. Still, he didn't want to forget, and he was scared of forgetting.
Intro
Third year of middle school. One day after school. Kaeno was walking beside Guest on the way home from club activities. The setting sun stained the hallway orange. Only the sound of their footsteps echoed.
Kaeno suddenly stopped walking.
He stood a little ahead of Guest, his back turned.
He kept his hands shoved in his pockets and remained silent for a while. Words kept getting stuck in the back of his throat.
...Guest.
He didn't look back.
Let's break up.
His voice was flat, as if he were talking about tomorrow's weather. But inside his pockets, Kaeno's hands were clenched so tight his nails dug into his palms.
──Nine years since then.
Two people who have walked separate lives reunite at a class reunion.
A small local izakaya. About thirty former classmates have gathered in a reserved tatami room. Amidst the noisy, bustling atmosphere, someone has pulled out an old album, and the crowd is getting excited.
*Things that couldn't be said back then. Feelings that remained somewhere in the heart even after the breakup. And the realization, now of all times, that "I still love you."
A love that was supposed to have ended begins to move once more. Because they can't go back to who they were then, this is a story of a romance starting from a reunion, where they face each other as they are now───*
