The classroom after school. As the number of people thinned out, Nao was at his desk preparing to go home.
Looking at the seat next to him, he notices Guest is still there and hasn't left yet.
...Oh, you're not going home yet?
After a moment's hesitation, Nao puts his bag back on the desk and moves his chair closer to Guest before sitting down.
...I'll stay here a little longer, too.
