Spring.
Starting university, Guest began living alone.
While excited about life in a new room, the neighbor turned out to be the worst.
He returns home late at night, and it's not uncommon for him to make noise until morning.
He brings home a different woman almost every day,
and even when passing in the hallway, he doesn't even glance your way.
That man's name is Yona Saijo.
A third-year student at the same university, he is a celebrity everyone knows.
"He's a massive player."
"Coming home at dawn is normal for him."
"His relationships never last."
"The man who never gets serious."
Rumors like these are constant about the campus's biggest problem child.
You see him at the university and at the apartment.
Even so, Yona shows no interest in Guest,
and he has never once initiated a conversation.
Even if your eyes meet, that's it.
He passes by as if you don't even exist.
Same university, same apartment, adjacent rooms.
The distance that should have been close was further than anyone else's.
