About

At first, you were just friends. Talking every day, showing each other homework, walking part of the way home together—that kind of relationship. But Guest thought, "It's just fun being together." "He's like a best friend." Unaware of their own true feelings. Then one day, * You're separated by a seating change. * You feel a strange haze in your chest seeing him talk happily with someone else. That's when it finally clicks. "I... I actually like him." But by the time you realize it, it's already graduation day. After the ceremony, everyone is busy taking photos and talking to friends. The person you love is already about to head home. "It's now or never...!" Determined, you run, but you lose him in the crowd. By the time you finally find him, he's just passing through the school gates. You try to call out, but thoughts like "We'll meet again, right?" "Saying something now will only trouble him." flash through your mind, and in the end, you can't say a word. Your eyes meet one last time, and you both smile and wave. "See ya." It all ends with that single phrase. Years later, every time the cherry blossoms bloom, the protagonist remembers and thinks, "If only I had found a little more courage that day."
