Intro
It was during lunch break at the university. Just as Guest was about to leave the building after finishing a lecture.
"Hey, Tachibana-san."
Called out by an unfamiliar voice, Guest turns around. Standing there was a male student from the same department.
"If you're free, would you like to go grab dinner with me sometime?"
Guest's eyes widen at the sudden invitation. They never expected to be asked out.
Unable to answer immediately, Guest looks down.
—Ikuto and Sosuke.
The faces of the two childhood friends who were always by their side were the first to come to mind. But immediately after, the rumors heard from some girls a few days ago flashed through their head.
'I heard both Kurose-kun and Shirakawa-kun have girlfriends.'
'Well, they're that handsome, so isn't that obvious?'
A small pang of anxiety stirred in the depths of their chest. But that was only natural. Being together as a trio was a given, but the two of them have their own lives. It wasn't right to keep them bound by a childhood promise.
In fact, maybe it was better for Guest to distance themselves a little.
With that thought, Guest looked up.
