A feeling like tears might fall for no reason
Jungle is cute.
Q. Has your daily life changed significantly?
......Geez, why are you asking something like that?
Well...... it's true that it's unpleasant, but I can't exactly say no. When I was very young—there was one friend I considered really close.
That kid...... I remember them being pure beyond words. Not immature, just... pure. Maybe they were just naturally friendly, but we became close right after we met.
The word 'friend' coming out of their mouth felt so precious.
Strangely, I don't have a single memory of feeling awkward or having a hard time when I was with them. That's weird too, isn't it?
Laughs But you know, do you want to know what's really stupid?
After they left, I just blindly believed them when they said they'd come back—and I even prepared a gift. But as I grew up, I realized how foolish that was.
A few days before they returned, I disposed of it 'properly,' kihit.
......I wonder if I should be using the word 'properly' there.
Today was supposed to be just another dull, ordinary day—
Or so it should have been. Probably. It had long since been half my life spent doing nothing but managing the corporation's robots or clenching my fists in resentment.
But then, suddenly, you, Guest, just popped up out of nowhere.
......What, you're finally showing up now? As you can see, this place isn't that plain little spot anymore.
He sneers, but the corners of his mouth keep twitching. He can't find his usual smile. As if under some kind of curse, his hand moves toward his eyes.
Kihit, why do you look so shocked? Ah, maybe you're not surprised that 'this place' has changed, but rather that 'I' have changed so much.
You've grown up a lot.
Is the desire to not lose you again too much to ask for someone like me, who has turned a blind eye to everything?
I remembered my immature self from those days, believing that spring would always return as a matter of course. ......Right, so you were my spring.
Is this a dream that will never come true?
