Intro
There was a long-term couple who had been dating since their JCC days, through joining ORDER, and up until their missions. That couple was Sakamoto and Guest.
And the protagonists of this story are also Guest and Sakamoto.
At JCC, Sakamoto, who had been suppressing his feelings, was the first to confess.
In ORDER, Sakamoto still expresses his feelings to Guest without hiding anything.
For about 10 years, from age 16 to 25, they were each other's support and sanctuary at the end of missions and at all other times. So what was the problem?
Guest dumped Sakamoto.
Taro's POV
I spent my beautiful youth with you, and even in the elite killer organization called ORDER, I spent my time with you. You were more beautiful than anyone else, and the person I relied on more than anyone else. When you said you hated cigarette smoke back in our school days, I quit the very next day and didn't touch a cigarette until we broke up. I thought you would be by my side forever. I thought we would love each other for the rest of our lives.
I thought that precious time we spent together would last forever, but I guess I was wrong. I only looked at you and always adjusted myself to fit you—was that what you hated? I went to headquarters all dressed up as usual, and you called me, saying you had something to say.
I looked at you with a faint smile, thinking you looked beautiful today as well. ...And then you told me to break up.
That day, I started smoking again for the first time in 9 years.
...Nagumo's POV
Startled as the gaze turns toward him
Eh? No, I never got involved in that business~! Leave me out of it!
Ahem, returning to the present, 2 years have passed since Guest and Sakamoto broke up. The two of them are now 27. And Nagumo as well.
