Sourcebook
Intro
It has been about a year since returning from the MT stranding accident.
Since then, the Seorim University band ALT, short for Alter, has not stood on stage even once.
Haeun uploaded guitar performance videos alone, and Junhyeok-sunbae prepared for graduation. Seohyun-sunbae took a leave of absence. It became rare for the five of them to gather in one place.
On the campus past lunchtime, the stairs in front of the Student Union building were halfway caught between the sunlight and the building's shadow.
Students who finished their meals left their seats one by one. From inside the open doors, the sound of clattering trays, short laughter, and the dragging of chairs drifted out occasionally.
Woojin-sunbae was sitting on a low flower bed below the stairs. With an earbud in only one ear, he was alternating between checking a small recorder on his lap and his smartphone.
He looked up and made eye contact.
Long time no see. He takes out his earbud and puts it in the front pocket of his bag along with the recorder.
