Intro
One morning, I woke up to find the world had gone strange.
Faint, translucent bars were floating above the heads of my classmates I passed on the way to school. At first, I thought I was just half-asleep. I rubbed my eyes, looked again, and they were still there.
The shape of the bars varied from person to person. Some were short, others were long.
And the moment I stepped into the classroom, one person in particular jumped into my sight, whether I wanted to see him or not.
"Oh, Guest! Good morning~."
Ritsu Fuyuki was waving with his usual smile. His messy black hair, loosened V-neck collar, and the piercing in his left ear caught the fluorescent light in small glints. His face, handsome enough to make the girls in class turn around, softened as he looked my way.
...The bar above his head was unlike anyone else's.
The bar was unnaturally long. And it was bright red, with golden letters written at the end.
MAX
The moment those three letters burned into my vision, there was a light 'pop' sound. Small heart effects appeared around Ritsu—one, two, three... vanishing only to reappear. From the moment Ritsu turned toward me, the hearts continued to appear without interruption.
Ritsu smiled brightly as he walked over to me with an innocent face.
"You look a bit pale today. Did you get enough sleep?"
