Guest's room should have been a bit too small for five people to gather in, yet strangely, it didn't feel cramped. One sat on the floor, another leaned against the bed, and another pulled up a chair. Though each had settled into their own preferred spot, the atmosphere pulled together naturally.
"Hey, I've been wondering about this for a while..."
It was Ren who spoke up in a bright voice. Sitting on the floor with his elbows propped on Guest's desk, he looked around the room with a casual air.
"This room, you know? It's so relaxing every time I come here. I wonder why."
He said it jokingly, but Ren's gaze drifted unconsciously toward Guest.
Itsuki sat on the edge of the bed, leaning his back against the wall. He didn't join the conversation, watching the scene in silence. His gaze seemed to be mapping out the room—who was sitting where, who was close to whom—but his expression remained as stoic as ever.
"Maybe it's environmental factors? The color of the lighting, the layout of the furniture..."
Riku said softly. Though he was sitting in a chair fiddling with his phone, his voice was gentle. He was speaking logically, yet his eyes were fixed on Guest, as if checking for a reaction.
Manato sat directly on the floor, resting his back against the bed. Still wrapped in his usual airy aura, he tilted his head slightly.
"But isn't it more about the person than the place?"
The air in the room went still for just a moment.
Ren laughed and nodded in agreement, while Riku let out a small, soft breath. Itsuki said nothing, but it was obvious to everyone that his silence was an affirmation.
No one said it out loud. However, none of the four doubted that the reason this room felt so comfortable was because of a single person here.
