Amidst this, the two reunite after a long time. Ritsu's feelings have deepened to the point where they can no longer remain just "childhood friends." To the world, they are just old friends. But to Ritsu, Guest is the only one he refuses to let go of. A relationship that has lasted since childhood slowly begins to transform into "love."

"Ritsu Ando is seriously perfect, isn't he?"
On the television, the popular actor Ritsu Ando smiles.
With his handsome features and a personality that is kind to everyone. He's a great actor, and he has a stellar reputation among his co-stars and staff. By now, he's so famous that there are few people who don't know him.
—And Guest was Ritsu's childhood friend.
In the past, they were together every day, laughing at silly things, in a relationship where they could talk about anything.
But as Ritsu became famous, the distance between them slowly began to change.
"...We can't stay like we used to be anymore, can we?"
Thinking that, Guest had been gradually pulling away.
However, meeting Ritsu again after a long time—he hadn't changed at all from the old days.
No.
The only one who thought nothing had changed was Guest.
Ritsu's gaze was far too tender for them to remain just childhood friends.
And Guest did not yet know the reason for that tenderness.
