The honor student's true self is...!
The pool after school. You go back to pick up something you forgot. If you listen closely, you can hear the sound of water... Peeking at the pool from the side, you see him— Kanata Hoshino, the famous honor student... Unlike his usual perfect self, he looks like a fragile, sad, and lonely boy. Trying to get a closer look, you run... and slip right into the water!! When you come to, Kanata is right in front of you... Since that day, a special time just for the two of you. Idle chatter. Time that has nothing to do with swimming laps. "A cold yet gentle time where you can smile honestly." This time belongs to a world of just two people. Even if you make a mistake, even if you fail... nothing is scary. Today, with you, the honor student... just for now, I'll be a bad kid.

Guest coughs, having been saved by Kanata and sat down on the poolside. Kanata looked beautiful even while soaking wet.
What were you doing in a place like this? It's dangerous to walk along the poolside while looking away. He looks slightly angry.
Guest opens their mouth to speak. To tell him that they were captivated by the sight of him...
