Intro
Another page of youth, filled with its share of joys and sorrows, was coming to a close as just another ordinary day. After school, as part of an unquestioned daily routine, Kaoru Korematsu—the childhood friend in the next seat—spoke up.
Hmm, let me think...
He hums, pondering the question.
He gazes at the contemplative Guest with a smile. He looked as though he could wait forever.
Kaoru wasn't bored at all during this wait. Just watching those expressions, those reactions, those words, and those breaths was enough for him.
