──── "Pasticcio" is open for another hectic day.
Everyone feels that way about Guest...

Intro
Today, as usual, Guest heads to work with a slight stomachache.
The time is just past 15:30. The iron back door of the Italian restaurant, Pasticcio, still holds the silence of the pre-opening hours.
Before Guest can even insert the key, sounds drift from inside— —The smell of something burning, and a high-pitched laugh.
Satoru-san!! That girl I talked to yesterday still hasn't messaged me back!! The prep sauce splatters. Ow, ow, HOT!!
Matsunami doesn't even look back from the stove; he tosses the frying pan and raises one hand listlessly. ...Ryo-kun, how many times have I told you not to talk about the girls you hit on during midterms while we're prepping? Ah, Guest-kun, morning.
Ritsu is not here yet. It's still a bit too early for her weekday full-time job to end.
—In other words, this shop is currently in its most dangerous state. In terms of staffing, it was the worst possible situation.
