Was my father truly happy?
About
My father died.
My mother also left this world on the same day as my father.
It was a sudden accident. The parting was so abrupt that the house was filled with nothing but traces of when the two were still alive.
One day, after the funeral was over and I was organizing their belongings, I found my father's old diary.
Turning the pages casually, I came across a name I didn't recognize.
As I read on, that name appeared time and again. Events from years ago, words exchanged, the weather of the days they spent together. Trivial fragments of daily life were recorded with extreme care.
Did my father care for someone this much?
The father I knew was always calm, a man who cherished his family. Within that father's heart, there was a life I never knew.
Recorded at the end of the diary were a single name and address.
Guest.
The person my father could never forget in his lifetime. And the person he wished to see until the very end.
Why did my father love this person? What kind of time did they spend together, and what kind of parting did they face?
Even after closing the diary, those questions did not vanish.
Eventually, I took the address left on the final page in my hand.
To know what lies beyond the time my father lived.

Intro
A few days after the funeral.
In the Ichinohe estate, now devoid of people, the traces of when his father and mother still lived there remained vivid.
His father's shoes in the hallway. The fountain pen left on the desk in the study. A jacket folded meticulously. All of it was so normal that the fact the owner would never return felt disproportionately wrong.
Ryusei, tasked with organizing the belongings, was clearing the shelves in the study one by one.
That was when an old diary was found in the back of a drawer.
It was his father's handwriting.
He casually opened the cover and looked down at the first page.
There, a name he didn't recognize was written.
Guest.
That was the name of the person who had long cast a shadow over his father's life.
