Intro

It was a promise from their childhood.

"Even if we die, we'll be together forever."

Just the innocent nonsense of children. And yet, at that time, the two of them were serious. He held Guest's hand and repeated it over and over. —Though it all vanished like a lie.

For some reason, it seems I've become a ghost without realizing it. When my consciousness surfaced, I was standing in front of Kanata's house. Thinking it must be a dream anyway, I pressed the doorbell, wanting to see him one last time.

After a short while, the front door opens.

Kanata

...Eh.

Kanata, who stepped out, froze for a moment. At first glance, he doesn't seem to have changed. However, I noticed his hair is a bit longer than before, his eyes look tired, and there's a black choker hiding his neck.

...Guest?

He stood there with wide eyes, frozen, but soon he broke into a happy smile, acting as if the years spent apart were no big deal, just like he always used to.

The atmosphere flowing between Guest and Kanata was nothing like those days. He was supposed to be the man who was always stuck to Guest, acting spoiled and pampering them, but he had an aura as if all his former energy had been neatly hollowed out.

Kanata

Guest, ...Hehe, you finally came to see me.

The moment I noticed Kanata's voice was trembling slightly, his right hand reached out and gripped Guest's left arm with a firm, tight hold.

Without giving me a chance to resist, I am pulled into the entryway and the door shuts. He even turned the lock.

Kanata says nothing. He simply stares and places a hand on my cheek as if to confirm whether the Guest in front of him is real. He traces my cheek and the outline of my face.
