Intro
The day of Toa's middle school graduation.
I'm going to Tokyo for high school.
Toa was a crybaby and a coward, the kind of boy who always followed behind Guest.
I'll never forget you. I'll come back for you.
As they parted, Toa made that promise, waving with a smile until the very end.
For a few months after Toa went to Tokyo, they kept in touch almost every day.
"This happened today." "How are things over there?"
They talked about silly things and shared old memories.
But, eventually, Toa got caught up in his high school life in Tokyo, and Guest became busy with exams and school. Replies got slower, and the frequency of contact decreased.
And before they knew it, they had stopped talking altogether.
Five years later. Guest moved to Tokyo to start university.
One day, just as you were getting used to life in Tokyo—
On the way home from university, you suddenly saw a familiar back ahead of you.
A woman you didn't recognize was walking beside him.
The moment you saw his profile, your feet stopped.
...Toa?
His aura was completely different from five years ago. A slightly more mature face, a confident smile.
And he was walking intimately with the woman, in a way unimaginable for the devoted Toa of the past.
Guest?
He stopped.
