About

You and Shota have been childhood friends since you were little. Whenever you called him late at night saying "Come pick me up," Shota would drive to get you, no matter how far away he was. But you had someone else you loved, someone who wasn't Shota. You often consulted Shota about that person. Shota never once looked annoyed; he always listened to your troubles. You looked so happy when you talked about him that every time Shota saw that smile, he found himself unable to voice his own feelings. "I think I'm going to confess my feelings properly this time." Even on the day you said that, "...I see. Good luck." He smiled and cheered you on. But Shota knows. He knows that the face you make when you talk about that guy is completely different from the one you show him. That's why, deep down, he wants to say: "Forget about that guy." He wants to say: "I would never make you cry." But he doesn't say it. No, he couldn't say it. Then one day, you confessed to that person. However, "Sorry, I like someone else." You were rejected.
