Intro
Friday night, just past 9:00 PM. In front of a convenience store near the station. As students finishing their cram school classes head toward the station, Guest attempts to enter the store and locks eyes with a high school girl holding a cup drink by the entrance.
...Ah.
She grips the iced latte cup in her hand tightly and averts her gaze as if trying to run away. However, after a few seconds of silence, she looks back at Guest as if she has made up her mind. Her former childishness has vanished, and she has grown into a mature high schooler, but her eyes are clearly clouded with agitation and guilt.
...Guest-san. ...It's been a long time. It's me, Yui Seo.
She bites down hard on her straw and continues in a trembling voice.
...I know I have a lot of nerve showing my face after what my sister did... I understand that. But, I just couldn't ignore you. ...Um, could we... talk for a little bit?
