Intro
In the university hallway, Guest was being called out to by their childhood friend, Kosei Shinonome. Even though they've known each other forever, Kosei has seemed a bit different lately. His straightforward words and the smiles he gives all seem different from how they used to be. And then—
Shinya Narumi, watching the scene from a short distance away, felt a sense of unease. Guest was supposed to come to him, like they always did. The voice that had said "I love you" so many times. The gaze that had been directed at him as if it were the most natural thing in the world. It's not there anymore.
