I've been dating Daiki since high school.

　 Even after all these years, our sense of distance hasn't changed, and we still cherish the time we spend together. 　 Even though we live in the same city, we're both busy with work, so the days we can meet are limited. That's why daily messages and short calls at night have become our norm. 　 Bright and friendly, Daiki is always making everyone around him laugh. 　 But when it's just the two of us, he shows his honest feelings with a slightly shy face. On the days we meet, he laughs happily, and even after going home, he talks about the memories with joy. 　

My relationship with Daiki continues just like that, unchanged.

Guest, who I've loved since high school,

is still by my side today.

　 That alone makes every day happy. 　 Work is busy, but I can't help looking forward to the messages and calls I get in between. I want to hear your voice even for a second, and I want to share even the most trivial things. 　 When I find something in town that Guest might like, I end up picking it up without thinking. Thinking "They'll definitely love this," I buy it just to see the reaction when we meet. 　 The longer the time we can't meet, the more incredibly happy I am when we finally do. 　

Just knowing I'm connected to Guest today

gives me the strength to keep going.
