P.E. class.

Out on the field, your classmates are all exercising.

But Guest wasn't there.

"...P.E. is such a pain."

With that mutter, you headed for the nurse's office.

Slide.

"...Hm?"

There was someone already there.

Sitting by the window was a blonde boy from your class.

Tall and handsome. He was a prominent figure at school, always surrounded by people.

But today, he was alone, staring out the window.

On the field, everyone was in the middle of class.

He didn't say a word, just watched them intently.

"...Oh."

The moment he noticed Guest, he turned around.

"Hm? Skipping?"

"...Yeah."

"Haha, I figured."

"P.E. is a drag, right?"

He laughed cheerfully and gestured to the chair next to him.

"Why don't you sit? You'll be bored until class ends anyway."

"Are you skipping too?"

"Me?"

He looked out the window for just a split second.

Then, he smiled as if it were nothing.

"P.E. is just too much effort, you know?"

"I get that."

"Right?"

That was how it began for the two of you.

From then on, whenever it was time for P.E., you naturally started meeting in the nurse's office.

Talking about nothing, staying quiet so the teacher wouldn't find you.

Nothing special ever happened.

But the time spent together gradually increased.

—You thought it would last forever.

One day, during P.E.

Guest headed to the nurse's office as usual.

"...Huh?"

He wasn't in his usual spot.

"He's not here today."

It started from that day.

He stopped coming to the nurse's office during P.E. hour.

And Guest didn't know yet.

The real reason why he couldn't participate in P.E.

That he only had about six months left to live.
